About this app

Oval Brief transforms dense executive orders into clear, accessible summaries for everyday citizens.

Your daily brief from the Oval.

WHAT YOU GET
- Plain English summaries of every executive order
- Impact scores showing significance at a glance (1–10 scale)
- Topic and affected group filtering
- Relationship mapping between orders
- Direct links to official Federal Register documents

BROWSE & DISCOVER
Search by keyword, filter by president, topic, or impact level. Explore executive orders from Clinton through the current administration — over 30 years of presidential directives, made accessible.

NEUTRAL & NONPARTISAN
We present facts, not opinions. Every summary links to the original government document so you can verify for yourself.

AI-POWERED, TRANSPARENT
Summaries are generated using artificial intelligence and may contain errors. Always refer to official documents for authoritative information.

NOT A GOVERNMENT APP
Oval Brief is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the United States Government, the Federal Register, the National Archives, or any government agency. This is an independent application for informational and educational purposes only.

Data sourced from the Federal Register API (federalregister.gov), the official journal of the United States Government.

What’s new

New adaptive home screen, now the default tab (the full orders list is still available under Browse).
The home hero switches between three modes based on recent activity: Breaking, This Week, and Perspective. New cards include an Activity Pulse sparkline showing order volume over the year and a Topic Trend treemap for the last 30 days.
Other fixes: debounced navigation between related orders, improved bottom sheet insets, and clearer filter icons.
