Stop Drowning in Legislation.
Delegate the Research.
Don't let your senior analysts waste hours scraping committee websites or formatting briefs. Hire a rigorously trained Policy Research Virtual Assistant to track bills, summarize hearings, and map stakeholders. We manage the QA, and you pay only for output.
Proficient in Top Legislative & Intelligence Stacks
What Your Policy VA Handles Daily
Your dedicated Project Manager ensures our vetted experts execute these critical research tasks flawlessly, allowing your directors to focus on strategy and advocacy.
Legislative Tracking
Stop manually checking committee schedules. We monitor municipal, state, and federal databases for specific keywords and bill introductions that impact your organization.
- Setting up tracking alerts in FiscalNote/Quorum
- Monitoring committee agendas and floor schedules
- Compiling daily or weekly "Bill Status" reports
Briefings & Summaries
No one has time to read a 400-page bill. We distill lengthy legislation, hearing transcripts, and white papers into concise, actionable executive summaries.
- Drafting 1-2 page legislative memos
- Extracting key quotes from public hearings
- Formatting briefings for board members/clients
Stakeholder Mapping & Data
Advocacy requires accurate data. We scrape government directories to build clean, updated contact lists for coalition building and lobbying outreach.
- Finding emails for committee members and chiefs of staff
- Compiling data on historical voting records
- Organizing CRM databases for grassroots campaigns

"Our analysts were spending 15 hours a week just scraping state-level committee schedules and updating tracking spreadsheets. Sagedoer's VA completely took this over. The PM ensures perfect accuracy. Huge ROI."
David T.
Public Affairs Director
"We use Quorum, and finding staff who know how to use it efficiently is tough. Sagedoer provided a VA who logs in daily, tags relevant legislation, and drafts the 1-page summaries we send to our coalition."
Sarah J.
NGO Policy Lead
"Confidentiality was our main concern. The Project Manager set up secure protocols so the VA accesses our systems via VPN. They build our stakeholder contact lists flawlessly by scraping public directories."
Marcus K.
Lobbying Firm Partner
"Zero platform fees and simple billing. I send a link to a 3-hour municipal zoning hearing, and the VA returns a bulleted summary of all relevant mentions by the next morning. Highly recommend."
