AI research

Ask faster. Verify with records.

BackerBase AI helps users orient around Louisiana campaign finance data, but it is designed as an assistant on top of source-backed workflows.

Plain-English questions

The app includes an Ask workflow for questions about donors, candidates, PACs, filings, committees, nonprofits, and spending.

Questions are routed through query planning and analytics flows before answers are generated.

The AI route instructs the model to answer only from provided analytics data and coverage context.

If analytics are missing, ambiguous, or insufficient, the app is instructed to say so plainly rather than guessing.

The app emphasizes filings, record links, dates, named counterparties, and source-backed research over broad narrative answers.

AI can summarize and accelerate research, but source records and analyst judgment remain the foundation.
