Every week the German Bundestag and Bundesrat handle dozens of bills, ordinances and EU documents. They are published in German, in long legal language. This Actor reads them for you and tells you what matters for your company.

What does German Legislation Monitor do?

1. Fetches new and updated parliamentary procedures from the official DIP API of the German Bundestag/Bundesrat – bills (Gesetzgebung), ordinances (Rechtsverordnung), EU proposals (EU-Vorlage), administrative regulations and more.
2. Filters them by procedure type, policy area and keywords.
3. Summarizes each procedure in 2–3 sentences in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch or Polish.
4. Assesses the business impact for your company profile – obligations, costs, opportunities – and scores relevance 0–100 with a reason.
5. Delivers a clean table (Excel, CSV, JSON) or feeds your tools via API, Make, Zapier, n8n, Slack or e-mail.

Who is it for?

• Compliance, legal and regulatory teams of companies doing business in Germany
• Public affairs and lobbying agencies, trade associations and chambers
• Law firms and consultancies monitoring regulatory change for clients
