Kitchener-Waterloo-based startup Page, founded by former Shopify employees, has secured $4.1 million CAD in seed funding to expand its AI-driven government relations platform.
The round was led by New York-based Twelve Below, with participation from Go Global Ventures, Canaan Partners, Ripple Ventures, and Garage Capital.
AI-Powered Lobbying for Businesses
Page’s platform functions as an “AI lobbyist,” helping businesses track, analyze, and influence government policies in real time. The system:
- Monitors policy changes, legislation, and regulatory shifts at national and local levels.
- Uses AI to analyze political trends and deliver tailored insights to businesses.
- Helps organizations engage policymakers with data-driven strategies.
CEO Ben Cox highlighted why Page is gaining traction:
“Trade wars, tariffs, and shifting regulations create uncertainty for businesses. Our AI helps companies stay ahead by providing real-time, actionable government insights.

Expanding Beyond Canada
Currently covering Canadian federal and provincial governments, Page plans to:
- Expand to the U.S. and U.K., helping businesses navigate policy changes across borders.
- Move into municipal-level government tracking, offering even deeper policy insights.
- Grow its AI capabilities to provide predictive analytics on political developments.
Growing Demand for Government Intelligence
Page is already used by:
- Large enterprises and growth-stage companies needing regulatory compliance tracking.
- Industry associations and government relations firms seeking AI-powered lobbying tools.
- Businesses previously unable to afford traditional lobbying services.
Investor Byron Ling of Twelve Below emphasized Page’s market potential:
“The explosion of government data is overwhelming for businesses. AI-powered platforms like Page make it possible to monitor, analyze, and act on regulatory changes at scale.”
With $4.1M in new funding, the startup is poised to become the go-to platform for AI-driven government relations, helping companies navigate an increasingly complex political landscape.
