FAQ 5

What is PoliticHook?

How to use PoliticHook?
Sign up for a PoliticHook plan, choose which Congress members to follow, and receive instant email alerts whenever they disclose a stock trade.
How does PoliticHook work?
PoliticHook monitors congressional trading disclosures, uses GPT-powered OCR to extract trade details, and sends instant email alerts when a filing drops.
What are the limitations of PoliticHook?
Congress members have a 30-day grace period to file trades, and the success of the service depends on the trading activity of the followed members.
What is the OCR Challenge?
Filings come from disclosures-clerk.house.gov—mostly PDFs, some handwritten. I tried Tesseract (free OCR tool), but it failed on anything not typed. So I moved to OpenAI's GPT API to decode the mess.
