Benefits

Health - The health of you and your family is important to us — so much so that we subsidize a large portion of healthcare premiums for not only you, but also your dependents. Our FSA allows you to shuttle tax-free dollars for out-of-pocket health care costs. An onsite gym greases the wheels for your workout needs.

Paid Time Off - We recognize refreshed employees are productive employees. We do not put a number on the amount of days an employee can take off which allows them to take time away from work to recharge as they need it.

Commuting - Travel to work can be expensive, so on top of contributing toward your commuting expenses – including garage parking and public transit – we offer a corporate bikeshare membership at a steep discount. We also allow employees with pricier commutes to dedicate pretax dollars toward their travel.

Retirement - Your long term well-being is directly tied to your ability to save for the future. By offering a match on contributions you make to a company-sponsored 401(k), we make it hard not to think about the later years.

Parental Leave - Building your family is just as important as building our business. We’re happy to empower our employees to spend time with their new little ones by providing 18 weeks of paid maternity and paternity leave after a year of service to the company.

FiscalNote expands PolicyNote API to cover 12,000+ US municipalities and 4,000+ school districts

FiscalNote has expanded its PolicyNote API to include local government intelligence, covering over 12,000 US municipalities and 4,000 school districts. Existing API customers can add local policy data to their subscriptions without additional integration work. The expansion monitors more than 400,000 meeting minutes, agendas and planning documents weekly across cities, counties, school districts and state boards. The dataset includes 400-plus pre-built topic filters covering areas such as zoning, cannabis, broadband and short-term rentals, plus 168,000 local government contact records. The local policy data addresses a gap in regulatory monitoring, as city council votes and local decisions shape business conditions but don't appear in traditional legislative feeds. The data is available immediately through the API's REST endpoints, enabling enterprises and AI agents to query local intelligence alongside existing legislative and regulatory data.
