Descriptions and citation details.
PolicyWatcher is a public-interest policy evidence project that monitors a configured inventory of public policy sources and keeps source status, observed changes and analytical limitations visible.
PolicyWatcher is an independent civic-tech project created by Fabrizio Degni. It monitors a configured inventory of public policy sources for 16 companies across 6 sectors and organizes analysis through 15 canonical KPIs spanning privacy, AI governance and ethics. Public data routes apply the configured evidence gate, preserve source-specific timestamps and show Not assessed when an assessment is unavailable. The public repository is reusable under CC BY 4.0. PolicyWatcher is not legal advice, a compliance certification or exhaustive coverage; update intervals depend on source retrieval and review.
