Worked for a company that attempted to do something very similar for the global economy. At the time it ended up being too laborious but this was 10 years ago or something. Seems like a good time to do something like this. I'll keep an eye out for you!

Would you be open to sharing or open sourcing the underlying data source? I think there are some very powerful things you could do with this.

For example, I recently discovered this site https://bomwiki.com/ which attempts to make a giant dependency graph of all the parts used to make large machines. This would not be possible without it being a wiki.

Sorry to be typical HNer but can you avoid the scroll takeover? It is quite hard to use on mobile.

I don’t think this is true if finance is included in economics.

… unless of course by physics you also mean metaphysics.

This is really great. I especially like the explanation of how claims are built from primary sources, and the tool clearly aims to show cause-and-effect relationships rather than just present conclusions.

My only suggestion would be to tone down rhetorical phrases like “science dictates economics.” The tool is strong enough to stand on its own, and I think presenting the data more neutrally would make it even more persuasive.
