Capitol Odds puts California bill forecasts on the desk
A public tool that estimates whether a California bill idea or filed bill will become law, then explains the estimate and offers AI-drafted revisions.
- For
- California bill drafters, trackers, and policy advocates
- Worth noticing
- The page separates ranking ability from the probability that any one forecast is right, and warns that model associations are not causes.
Field notes
The interface is organized around a bill description plus editable inputs, including author party, chamber, subject, committee, filing window, coauthors, and procedural flags. A separate rewrite control targets weak stages; the page says it keeps only drafts that score higher in the model. Its methodology section names California Legislative Information bulk data and points to a repository for code, tests, and methodology, though some test-session details are blank in the extracted copy.
