Scavio

A normalisation-and-access layer over municipal legislative records rather than a collected archive: ten REST endpoints returning structured JSON for bills, ordinances, resolutions, motions, committee actions, meeting agendas, elected officials, committee assignments, staff contacts and official attachments across 1,800+ US municipalities. The underlying records are municipal Legistar (Accela) legislative-management data exposed via each city's OData feed; Scavio's contribution is unifying wildly inconsistent per-municipality OData shapes and filter semantics into one response schema with authentication, rate limiting, usage tracking and credit-based billing. Explicitly operates live with no caching, so it is an access product, not a historical corpus.

Dataset card

Type: not stated
Format: Tabular — JSON over a single REST API with request-body filtering, one API key, rate limits (5-10 requests per second by tier), a municipality-validation endpoint, average response under 2 seconds, and credit-metered consumption (1 credit per call)
Volume: Coverage breadth is stated: 1,800+ US municipalities across ten endpoints, including every major metro, with the caveat that municipality availability must be checked per-city via the validation endpoint. Stored volume is effectively nil by design — calls are live and uncached, so nothing accumulates. Aggregate record counts (bills, votes, meetings) are not published anywhere on the site.
Users: ~300-3,000 API subscribers across the whole platform (inferred: self-serve signup with card-priced tiers of roughly $0, $79/mo Bootstrap and $199/mo Startup plus a pay-as-you-go option and an Enterprise tier — a developer-led long tail with few enterprise accounts)
History: not stated
Update frequency: not stated
Growth: Active — live self-serve signup with an expanding plan ladder, active marketing (UTM-tracked pricing links, product-directory listings, a live X presence), a 2026 copyright, and a widening endpoint catalogue across social, search, ecommerce and now government verticals
Launched: ~2024-2026 (inferred: 2026 copyright with no earlier archive or press found; the credit-based self-serve pricing model plus the AI-agent positioning are post-2024 patterns, and the government-data endpoint appears to be a newer vertical added onto an existing scraper-API platform)
