✨ NEW · DEFENSE EXPORT PIPELINE · DSCA

Foreign Military Sales Notifications

Every US arms sale to an allied government triggers a DSCA Congressional notification. Counter-drone systems, loitering munitions, AI decision-support platforms, autonomous vessels increasingly show up as named sub-contractors in multi-hundred-million-dollar packages. Leading indicator of which frontier defense tech is actually being exported, and to where.

✨ NEW · POLICY INTELLIGENCE · SENATE LDA

Lobbying Disclosure Tracker

Every lobbyist hired in DC files an LD-1 registration and a quarterly LD-2 spending report with the Senate. When a frontier company's lobbying spend doubles year-over-year, they're fighting for something specific: spectrum allocation, procurement reform, export-control carveouts, tax credits. That acceleration is a leading indicator of regulatory traction and commercial pipeline.
