A powerful, fully-featured toolset that solves problems for campaigners managing multiple requests or in-depth FOI investigations
Overflowing inbox?

You’ll have access to our address book of 2617 authorities that are subject to FOI.
Tired of the fiddly details that add time to your investigation?
If your request bounces back, we source the new address for that authority.

No need to check: we’ll send an email alert telling you when you need to take action.
Need to keep things under wraps?
Requests can stay completely private until you’re ready to go public.

How it works
Make a request
Because we’ve streamlined the request-writing process, Pro saves you a lot of back and forth. Search our database of authorities, pick which one — or many — you want to contact, and compose your request right there.
Dashboard
Time is precious, so your dashboard just presents the information you need to know: which requests have received responses; which haven’t and need chasing up; and which require input from you. Search, filter or sort by status to quickly find the request you’re looking for.
Batch requests
FOI is an invaluable tool in campaigns, helping you collect information that hasn’t previously been available as a single dataset so that you and your supporters can understand the wider picture. Pro takes the slog out of sending multiple requests with the Batch feature: easily pick the authorities you want, then send one request to all of them.
Reminders
You’ve got plenty of other things to think about, so you don’t want to be checking up on every single one of your requests to see if it needs attention. Instead, Pro keeps an eye on them for you, sending you a daily email digest.
Private Requests
Pro gives you all of the ease of Right to Know, without the worry of releasing all your work before you’re ready for the world to see it.
You can choose to keep your requests private for up to a year, not visible to anyone but you. We’ll make sure you know when that time’s about to run out, and you can always extend it further if your campaign’s not live yet.
Ready to go public
Once you launch your campaign, there’s every reason to put your requests and responses into the public domain. They’ll lend credence to your campaign, and make the data available for others who might want to research a different angle.
