Method
Each record carries a citation to the public document it was read from; person-level fields in those documents (investigators, agents, officers) are never stored. Gates are observed, never inferred: a company is at a rung because a cited record says so. Build-out targets are tagged by text match against each record's own name and description, with vetoes for known false positives. Values are as filed (award, grant, private placement, total cost) converted to USD at fixed rates — shown for scale, not comparable across registers. Organisation names are matched on a normalised key, so subsidiaries and spellings can split one company into several rows.
