> Exploring whether there's a business here — structured legislation API for legaltech/compliance, or just a useful open dataset. Curious what HN would build with this data.

Compiling legal data for specific domains and then selling processes that rely on your private compilation is a battle-tested business plan, but there's a lot of manual work involved and the cost of that work becomes a barrier to entry.

Generally speaking, the people who'd like to cross that barrier are both open to ideas and funded well enough to run little experiments.
