Legislation as code. Every law as a Markdown file. Every reform as a Git commit.
Legalize turns official legislation into version-controlled, machine-readable data. Browse, search, diff, and build on structured legal data from 30 countries.

Legal texts are amended constantly, but tracking changes is hard. Official sources publish consolidated versions with no way to compare. Commercial providers charge hundreds per month for version history.
Legalize is open legal infrastructure:
For developers — structured, versioned legal data with a REST API
For researchers and journalists — explore the evolution of legislation with git
For citizens — see how the laws that affect you have changed
I could only select one country. But you can find the laws of the three countries. Enjoy it!
