What we do§ 02

Harnessing AI to turn data into decisions and tasks into systems.

01

Maps, dashboards, and other ways to see your data — from public records to your own client database.

We build tools that enable decisions grounded in data.

Precinct-level election platforms · FEC campaign finance dashboards · Litigation Data

02

Automation for the work between the work.

We build the systems that allow you to focus on your job and not the minutia of running the back office.

Intake → engagement letter pipelines · LLM-powered document drafting · Custom internal apps

We speak legalese and can direct the new digital precinct captains.

How we work§ 04

Built by someone who's lived inside the data.

Emerald City Automation is run by an attorney who has also run for mayor and worked with candidates and campaigns at the federal, state, and local levels. We've lived the data our clients need. Whether it's voter files and precinct returns or case dockets and intake spreadsheets, we know why that data is important to you.

We work in short, deliverable-focused engagements. A working prototype in weeks, not a six-month consulting roadmap. We integrate with the stack you already use, document everything we build, and hand it over so your team can run it without us. The goal is a system that supercharges how you already work.
