GovLens is a live platform that tracks EU legislation, how MEPs vote, lobbying, and how EU law turns into national law. European parliamentary data is public — GovLens makes it usable.
Votes are buried in PDFs. Committee amendments are scattered. Lobbying data sits in a separate register. The European Parliament publishes everything — in formats that resist analysis.
A journalist tracking how a specific MEP voted on AI regulation shouldn't need to scrape three websites and manually cross-reference committee records.
Votes, memberships, speeches, amendments, attendance. Historical data back to the 8th term.
Structured data across plenary and committees. Group cohesion, cross-party alignment, vote breakdowns.
Legislation through committees. Amendments, rapporteurs, shadows, and timelines.
Cross-reference with the EU Transparency Register. Meeting patterns between MEPs and lobbyists.
Follow files, MEPs, and committees. Get briefings and deadline alerts for what you watch.
Follow how EU law turns into national law, member state by member state.
GovLens collects what the European Parliament already publishes, turns it into linked records, and makes it queryable.
