About Us

Investigate. Build. Ship.

A community of investigators and builders working for government efficiency — without waiting for government permission.

Our Vision

We dig into failed projects, expose waste, and identify what citizens actually need. Then we build it.

No procurement processes. No 3-year tender cycles. No €75M consulting contracts.

Our Approach

1

Investigate

Deep-dive into government failures, follow the money, expose the waste.

2

Identify

Understand what citizens and governments actually need.

3

Build

Create open-source solutions that work.

4

Ship

Deploy tools people can use today, bypassing broken procurement.

Empowered by AI

We leverage artificial intelligence to analyze vast amounts of public data, identify patterns of inefficiency, and accelerate both our investigations and our builds.

AI helps us process government documents, track spending patterns, and ship solutions faster than traditional government IT projects — while maintaining human oversight and transparency.

Our Principles

Ship Fast

Working software beats perfect documentation. We ship early, iterate often, and learn from real users.

Open Source

All our tools are open source. Anyone can inspect, improve, or fork our work. Transparency by default.

Evidence-Based

Every investigation is backed by rigorous research. Every claim has sources. We show our work.

Community-Driven

Investigators, developers, designers, citizens — everyone has a place. We build together.

Why This Matters

European governments spend billions on IT projects that never deliver. The procurement process is broken — it rewards incumbents, punishes innovation, and takes years before a single line of code is written.

We believe citizens deserve better. Instead of waiting for reform, we're building the tools that should exist — and giving them away for free.

Get Involved

Whether you want to investigate, build, or support — there's a place for you:

  • Investigators: Help dig into government failures and document findings
  • Developers: Build open-source tools that solve real problems
  • Designers: Make government data accessible and understandable
  • Citizens: Share our findings and demand accountability
