Katzilla wraps government data for agents
Katzilla launches a unified API for government data, packaging 250,195 validated Data.gov datasets, 217+ tool-use actions, and source citations for AI agent workflows. It targets agents that need primary-source answers from SEC filings, FDA recalls, Federal Register notices, Census data, court opinions, and other public records.
// ANALYSIS
Katzilla is useful plumbing for a real agent problem: models can reason over public facts, but they still need fresh, structured, citable sources when accuracy matters.
- –One API key across many government sources reduces the glue code needed to wire agents into SEC, FDA, BLS, FRED, Census, Federal Register, and similar systems
- –Structured citations with source URL, retrieval time, and hashes are the right primitive for compliance, research, legal, finance, and journalism agents
- –The broader toolset matters: Scrape covers public data trapped in pages, Signal/Watch handles monitoring, and Ask/NL endpoints give agents a higher-level query surface
- –The main risk is trust in the abstraction layer: developers will still need to inspect coverage, freshness, rate limits, and citation semantics before using it in high-stakes workflows
