FiscalNote’s AI-Powered “Factba.se” Database of Presidential Speeches, Transcripts, Social Media Posts, and Schedules to be Leveraged Along with Real-Time AI Analysis of Both President Biden and Trump’s Campaign Statements During 2024 Election Cycle, Powered by FiscalNote’s Recently Announced AI Agent StressLens

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Wednesday, May 1, 2024 – FiscalNote Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: NOTE) ("FiscalNote"), a leading AI-driven enterprise SaaS technology provider of global policy and market intelligence, today announced the expansion of its award-winning Roll Call media property to now include data from Factba.se, the go-to trusted AI database for historical and current Presidential remarks. The Company also announced that its recently launched AI-powered StressLens offering - a groundbreaking innovation that equips customers with the real-time ability to decode the human element - will be integrated into the new Roll Call and Factba.se platform to provide instant, AI-driven analysis of Presidential candidates Joe Biden and Donald Trump during the 2024 election campaign.

The combination of Roll Call and Factba.se, which have operated to date as separate offerings within FiscalNote, provides a political and policy powerhouse of legislative and Presidential information at a time when the 2024 campaigns for the White House shift into higher gear. For almost 70 years, Roll Call has been recognized as the award-winning journal of record for Capitol Hill, while Factba.se is renowned by political journalists and analysts for being the canonical compendium of record for all online and offline Presidential remarks, speeches, statements, transcripts, and schedules.

Now, by leveraging Factba.se’s foundational proprietary AI technology, Roll Call is being expanded to be the media site of record for all Presidential speeches, remarks, social media posts, and schedules - in both video and audio formats. Within the new Factba.se and Roll Call platform, decades of easily accessible and constantly updated Presidential data will be seamlessly housed for instant analysis - with an initial focus of data infusion to cover statements by both Presidential contenders for the 2024 election, Joe Biden and Donald Trump.

As an additional groundbreaking feature integrated with the Roll Call and Factba.se combination, FiscalNote’s newly launched StressLens will provide users with a unique, nonpartisan overlay of AI-driven analysis for Biden and Trump statements which will be constantly updated, allowing for side-by-side comparative views of their remarks to decode and decipher the human element in their spoken words on the campaign trail.

StressLens is an innovative AI agent capable of detecting real-time changes in tone, cadence, and physical movements, providing a groundbreaking new tool to decipher the intricate language of human emotions and intentions. Whether it's a subtle shift in tone during a conversation or a slight change in facial expression during a video call, StressLens is attuned to the emotional cues that define human interaction, automatically aligned and specific to each public figure. When applied to statements made by Presidential candidates using Factba.se’s AI technology via the RollCall.com platform, StressLens now offers users fascinating, unique AI-powered insights into a Presidential candidate’s true intentions, revealing a ‘fingerprint’ that offers deeper clarity and understanding of motives - going beyond the ‘what’ was said, but ‘how’ it was said. For the 2024 campaign, users can, for the first time, apply this advanced, innovative AI technology to every speech made on the campaign trail, whether in video or audio formats.

“At a time when the nation is rapidly turning its attention to what may be one of the most consequential Presidential elections in decades, Roll Call - one of the most influential and respected voices in journalism - is expanding its coverage to meet the moment with AI-powered data and analysis that sets a groundbreaking new standard in political and election coverage,” said Josh Resnik, President & Chief Operating Officer, FiscalNote. “The addition of Factba.se’s renowned and respected database of Presidential information, as well as real-time AI analysis of campaign statements by Joe Biden and Donald Trump - powered by innovative technology using AI agent StressLens - provides an exciting and unique dimension to the way we cover and understand election candidates. It’s yet another example of FiscalNote’s decade-long leadership in AI, and our commitment to developing AI agents to generate novel insights using structured and unstructured data.”
