The Research Lab
Analyze any U.S. state-level data instantly — no coding required.
Use the EazyStates curated database, pull live Census Bureau data,
or upload your own dataset. Analyze each source separately,
or merge all three into a single panel for integrated analysis.
The complete statistical engine. Choose your data source — EasyStates Database, live Census API, or your own upload — then select your method. EasyStates runs a default analysis automatically so you can start right away, and lets you choose any regression type or analytical approach you need. Methods include e.g. principal component analysis, logistic regression, time series, and more — applied to longitudinal or panel data structures you define. No setup. No coding. No knowledge of statistics software required.
Ask any question about U.S. Census data in plain English. Compare states, filter by race or gender, explore longitudinal or panel data trends across decades — all returned as instant charts and tables drawn live from the Census Bureau API.
A conversational AI built on EasyStates data. Ask complex questions about demographics, elections, and state institutions — and get data-driven answers with instant modeling and visualization. A data analyst who already knows your dataset.
Have your own U.S. state-level dataset — survey results, policy indicators, spending figures, measures you have constructed yourself? Upload it as a CSV, and EasyStates will merge it with 1,000+ Census and EasyStates variables. Apply any analytical method you choose — e.g. regression, PCA, time series, and more — to the combined dataset. No data wrangling. No software. No code.
- 1 Upload your state-level CSV — one row per state is all that's needed.
- 2 Select which EasyStates or Census variables to merge with your data.
- 3 Choose your analysis method — e.g. regression, PCA, time series, and more. A default analysis runs automatically to get you started.
- 4 Results, charts, and tables generated automatically. Download or publish.
