For what tasks is this better than the longstanding TheyWorkForYou [1]?

> every publicly accessible document, audio recording or transcript we could get our hands on

It doesn't seem like it. If I search for something e.g. "small boats" without quotes, I get no results for Parliament Wow [2], but 4000 from TheyWorkForYou [3]. If I add quotes, I get 4 matching "past sessions" on Parliament Wow [4], with no indication of which part of them is relevant to my query; TheyWorkForYou gives 2000 results [5].

Hey, we scraped bills and news. Better transcriptions will be coming soon and are not on the demo site.

We dont see this as any competition for theyworkforyou. They provide and awesome service to the UK. We are going in the direction of better realtime monitoring as the current products are very limited.

Thanks :)
