Build a thread

Build a new policy thread two ways: One-shot drops you straight on a populated workspace — pick seeds and/or describe the topic, we generate the rest. Curated shows you the candidates first so you can refine before saving.

Topic / framing (optional)

Max 1000 chars. Either this or seeds (or both) is required.

Seed items (optional)

Written Evidence

Pick up to 8 items. Existing thread events are imported; bills and documents are re-parented.

Cost mode

Corpus-only — uses what we already have (3–7 min) Corpus + Web research — also fills gaps with web search (5–10 min)

Starting the build…
Real builds take 3–7 minutes (longer on busy topics). The chip in the corner will follow you and let you know when the thread is ready — you can navigate away.
