Live with Ohio's public checkbook

Public spending anyone can check for themselves.

CiviChain takes the spending data a government already publishes, fingerprints every record, and anchors it to a public blockchain. Anyone can confirm a payment is exactly what was reported, without having to trust us or the agency.

Don't take our word for it.

Pick a real payment from Ohio's checkbook and check it yourself. Your browser rebuilds the record's fingerprint and compares it with the one written to Base. Nothing in the check runs on our servers.

Verify a record

Find what deserves a second look

The full platform runs checks across every payment and payroll record and puts what it finds in front of a reviewer.

Purchases split under the bid limit

Repeat payments to one vendor that cluster just below the amount that would require competitive bidding.

Payments to excluded parties

Payees screened against federal exclusion lists, so a payment to a debarred or excluded vendor stands out.

Year-end spending spikes

Departments whose spending jumps in the last weeks of the fiscal year, when budgets are used or lost.

Overtime above the benchmark

Payroll overtime measured against a benchmark, by department, so outliers are visible before an audit asks.
