Polyfact Research

Political life, measured.

Quantitative, reproducible studies of French parliamentary debate, built on the full corpus Polyfact collects and structures — transcripts, votes, bills, mandates.

Our approach

Conclusions you can check: every study publishes its method, its data and its limits.

The full corpus, not a sample

Our studies read the entirety of the debates, votes and bills — not hand-picked excerpts. Trends are normalized by the actual volume of speech or activity.

Open method

Official sources, explicit extraction rules, published error audits: every number can be traced back to the sitting and the speaker behind it.

Adversarial verification

Every claim is checked against the data before publication — dates, attributions, counts — and uncertainty is flagged rather than smoothed away.

Let's work together

A research question, a bespoke analysis, an academic or press partnership — let's talk.
