Show HN: Far RAG API – Semantic Search for Federal Regulations (OpenAPI)

2 points

6 months ago

I built an API that provides semantic search over Federal Acquisition Regulations for GovCon AI systems and compliance bots.

*What it does:* - Semantic search across 617 FAR Part 52 clauses - Pre-vectorized with 384-dim embeddings (all-MiniLM-L6-v2) - Returns relevant clauses with similarity scores - Daily auto-updates from acquisition.gov - OpenAPI spec for AI agent integration

*Why it exists:* If you're building AI for government contracting, your LLM will hallucinate legal citations. A wrong FAR clause = disqualification. This solves that.

*Try it free:* https://blueskylineassets.github.io/far-rag-api/honeypot/

*API access (RapidAPI):* https://rapidapi.com/yschang/api/far-rag-federal-acquisition...

*Code (open source):* https://github.com/blueskylineassets/far-rag-api

Built with FastAPI + sentence-transformers. All data is public domain (17 U.S.C. § 105).
