​The MapLight Disclosure System is a modern, configurable electronic filing platform that simplifies compliance and improves transparency. Our system supports the full lobbying lifecycle, from account creation and registration to compensation reporting, activity filings, and payment tracking.

With built-in support for multiple filer types, the platform serves filing entities of all sizes and structures, from individual lobbyists and agents to grassroots and legislative designees. Agencies can create filing periods specific to each filer type and enforce compliance through customizable fee schedules, late filing penalties, and automated notifications.

Administrative tools provide agency staff with configurable workflows to review and act on filer submissions, enabling approvals, conditional approvals, or rejections in accordance with agency-defined rules and criteria. The system can also integrate with legislative data, supporting accurate reporting on bills lobbied and related activity.

The MapLight Disclosure System is a hosted software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution, eliminating local IT burden. MapLight customizes the system to meet your agency’s laws, regulations, and operational needs. We provide a comprehensive solution, including setup, training, and ongoing support.
