Our Story
US primary law as clean, structured data, through a REST API, an MCP server, and a free open dataset, for developers and companies.
Built for developers and companies
US primary law is public, yet it is not usable. It lives across thousands of government sources, in inconsistent formats, with no single API, so any team that needs statutes or regulations in its product has had to scrape and maintain all of it alone. Vaquill AI was founded by a lawyer (Arshita) and an engineer (Priyansh) to turn it into clean, structured, well-cited data that any developer can query.
Vaquill AI covers the complete US Code, the CFR, and all 56 state and territory statute codes: 5.4M+ sections, normalized, cross-referenced, and citation-addressable. You reach it through a REST API, an MCP server for AI agents, and Open US Law, a free open dataset published under CC BY-NC 4.0 for non-commercial use. We provide the data and the tools to reach it, nothing else.
We serve developers and companies of every size: LegalTech and RegTech products, AI and ML teams, compliance and GRC platforms, universities, and government. The data is versioned and source-linked.
Meet Our Founders
Arshita Anand
Co-founder & CEO · Lawyer
Arshita is a lawyer who spent her early career inside workflows that live and die on primary law: compliance checks, research under deadline, memos where one wrong citation sinks the whole argument. She came up through legal aid cells, moot courts, and clinical work.
What she saw at every turn: the law everyone relies on is public, yet almost impossible to use as data. She started Vaquill AI to turn it into infrastructure that legal and compliance products can build on.
“Clean, well-cited primary law should be a solved problem. We are making US statutes and regulations something any team can query, instead of something everyone has to rebuild from scratch.”
Priyansh Khodiyar
Co-Founder & CTO · Engineer
Priyansh built and runs the data pipeline behind Vaquill AI: 5.4M+ sections of US primary law ingested, normalized, and made citation-addressable across the complete US Code, the CFR, and all 56 state and territory codes. He ships the REST API, the MCP server, and Open US Law, plus the verification checks that keep every section traceable to its official source.
He owns the reliability posture production teams ask about on the first call: source-linked citations, versioned data, documented data locations, AES-256 at rest, TLS in transit. He treats primary law as an accuracy and coverage problem first, a developer-experience problem second.
