Hey HN, I'm Cedric, the other dev behind Crystal here

Hallucinated data sources and statistics from commercial chat interfaces is still a major problem. Reasoning models provide a higher level of confidence in results, but are typically restricted to web searches and its training data. In many tools we tried, the tool was "blind" to the underlying data sets.

In addition, while many are focused on private "Chat with your data" or commercial solutions, there's an overlooked trove of public datasets and APIs out there that have not been fully explored yet. Federal organizations like HUD and EPA maintain high-quality datasets that are difficult to find and locate to query using the right parameters.

Crystal bridges these two opportunities into a (what we think) is a clean and concise tool to democratize access to local, state, and federal government data. Give it a try, it's free!
