About Citoyen
My name is Mickael Jordan, and Citoyen is a project I'm building on my own.
I love my home country, France. I love my adopted country, the United States. I love politics, and I love data. And I've always been frustrated by how opaque, unclear, and hard it is to track the performance of nations and their governments — especially compared to the corporate world, where reporting on performance is a quarterly obligation.
Citoyen's goal is to let citizens anywhere in the world easily follow how their country is performing, in a single app, through factual, verifiable, and reliable data. It cross-references the major international and national sources and pairs them with short, clear synthesis notes. These notes let you quickly take stock of where things stand, what has changed recently, and what lies ahead in each area — always grounded in the data.
The ultimate aim is more informed citizens, able to contribute more intelligently to the shaping of public policy.
I currently work on this project alone, made possible and scalable by recent progress in artificial intelligence. I've done all of it myself — from the concept to writing the code, from wiring up the sources to analyzing the data — as rigorously and as neutrally as I could.
