XCrossbeam
Follow federal spending across your city_
Skip the scavenger hunt
Public money should not require detective work.
The data exists. The useful answers are just scattered across portals, PDFs, and exports. XCrossbeam connects the trail so you can see who received an award, where it landed, and how the pattern is changing.
What you get
- Questions get answers you can source.
- Concentration and imbalance are measured instead of assumed.
- You can see who gets paid, where the money lands, and when the flow shifts.
- You can take national spending down to cities and ZIPs where the data allows.
How it works
Start wide. Drill down. Keep your context.
Geographies, agencies, recipients, awards, industries, and timelines stay connected as you move from a national total to the local organizations behind it.
The result
The pattern stops hiding in the total.
Find the outliers, follow the recipients, compare places, and share the exact view behind your conclusion. Less hand-waving. More evidence.
The receipts
The headline is the beginning, not the answer.
Move from national totals to the recipients, places, and patterns underneath.

Why this exists
Public spending deserves a public interface.
XCrossbeam is built for curious people first. Teams and institutions can use it too, but the promise stays the same: public data should be genuinely usable by the public.
FAQ
FAQ
Straight answers, minus the procurement-speak.
How current is the data?+
The feed is updated daily and appended with a complete archive of over 20 years of historical data so you can follow current spending patterns and analyze historical trends.
What data can I explore?+
Agencies, sub-agencies, offices, awards, recipient entities, NAICS, PSC, and geography - down to city or ZIP where available. Everything is connected, so you can move through the data without starting over.
Does XCrossbeam explain why money was spent?+
No - on purpose. We do not infer intent or push conclusions. XCrossbeam shows who, where, and how much, with transparent assumptions, so you can ask "why" with evidence instead of guesswork.
Can I see how spending changes over time?+
Yes. Trends and transaction timelines let you follow how awards evolve across months and years. Higher plans unlock deeper history and finer resolution.
Can I share or export what I find?+
Yes. Export tables and charts, or share links that preserve the exact filters and scope you used. Anyone you share with can see how the view was built.
What's the difference between plans?+
Free gives you every feature with the most recent 30 days of data. Premium unlocks the full historical horizon, so you can follow old patterns, current spikes, and long-running spending flows without the window closing on you.
Is this for individuals or teams?+
Built for individuals. Ready for teams. XCrossbeam is designed so one person can ask serious questions without institutional permission. Teams can collaborate and share when needed.
