What it does

Turns a single rule docket into a decision-ready brief. Given a docket URL, it scrapes the rule text, runs broad web research on how peers, trade groups, and prior similar rules reacted, then has an agent synthesize a cited memo covering the proposed changes, likely industry impact, and a recommended posture for your comment letter.

When to use it

Use it when a rule enters its public comment window and leadership needs a grounded view fast — not just what changed, but what others are saying and how you should respond. Best for policy and government-affairs teams preparing formal comments.

How it works

  1. 1A manual trigger takes the docket URL and your organization's interest profile.
  2. 2Firecrawl scrapes the full rule text and supporting documents.
  3. 3Perplexity runs sourced research on stakeholder positions, trade-group statements, and comparable past rulemakings.
  4. 4A Paperclip agent synthesizes the findings into a structured brief with citations and a recommended comment-letter posture.
  5. 5The brief is written to a new Coda page for collaborative editing.
  6. 6Slack notifies the working group that the brief is ready.
