What is AI DOGE?

AI DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) is an independent project that uses artificial intelligence to audit every pound of UK public spending. We believe taxpayers have the right to know exactly where their money goes.

🤖

AI-Powered Analysis

Machine learning algorithms scan millions of transactions to detect anomalies, duplicate payments, and spending patterns that human auditors miss.

📊

Open Data

All data comes from publicly available council documents published under the Local Government Transparency Code. We make it searchable and understandable.

🔍

Deep Investigation

When the AI flags something, we dig deeper. Contract analysis, FOI requests, and cross-referencing with other public data sources.

🏛️

Every Council

Our goal is to audit every council in the UK. Starting with Lancashire, expanding nationwide. One council at a time, one pound at a time.

Who's Behind AI DOGE?

AI DOGE is created by Tom Pickup, Lancashire County Councillor and Lead Member for Finance and Resources. As someone who scrutinises public spending professionally, Tom built AI DOGE to give every taxpayer the same level of insight into how their money is spent.

This is an independent project with no political affiliation requirement. The data speaks for itself. AI DOGE analyses public records using artificial intelligence and presents findings without partisan bias.

AI DOGE is not affiliated with any council. All data comes from publicly available sources. Data may contain errors — always verify with official council publications.
