AI Summaries are a new feature designed to help you quickly understand the purpose and impact of legislative and regulatory activity. These summaries are generated using generative AI models that are grounded entirely in the official legislative and regulatory text stored within State Net.
What Are AI Summaries?
AI Summaries provide a concise, structured explanation of a bill or regulation based directly on the text of the measure. They are designed to highlight the information that matters most to policy professionals.
Each AI Summary may include:
- A high-level overview of what the bill or regulation does
- Key changes from prior law or previous versions
- Compliance requirements
- Impacted individuals or entities
- Penalties, when applicable
Every qualifying version of text loaded into State Net receives its own summary. When a new version of a measure is published, a new summary for that version of text will be generated.
What Content Is Included?
Legislative AI Summaries are created for:
- Bills with the following LegTypes: AB, HB, SB, L, and B
- All versions of text loaded after December 16th, 2025
- Documents between 1,500 and 500,000 characters (representing more than 95% of bills in State Net)
Regulatory AI Summaries are created for:
- All proposed and adopted versions of text loaded after March 5th, 2026
- Documents between 1,500 and 500,000 characters
What Content Is Not Included?
AI Summaries are not generated for:
- Prefiles and resolutions
- Budget bills
- Regulory Text that is informational (i..e pre-rulemaking, intent/inquiry notices, etc)
- Regulatory Text that is process-oriented (ie. administrative/procedural updates, review cycle notices, etc)
- Agency Document
- Executive orders
- Ballot measures
- Local OrdinancesDocuments that are extremely short (under 1,500 characters )
- Documents that are extremely long (over 500,000 characters)
When a summary cannot be generated—for example, due to document size—the system will display the traditional State Net summary instead.
