Overview

Explore ACS data in plain English.

Ask about any U.S. community and CensusBot pulls the relevant American Community Survey numbers. You get the figures, the context, the margins of error, and a chart when one helps. You skip the raw Census tables entirely.

Tech Stack

CensusBot connects a web frontend, the Census Bureau's data, and a language model so you can explore community data without learning the Census table system. Requests run on the server, so API keys never reach the browser.
