Jacob Wall runs an AI lobbying firm under a pseudonym

On its website, LobbyMatic claims that its AI-powered software can do everything from automatically monitoring congressional hearings to “enhancing research” on legislative and regulatory issues.

Jumping on the AI ​​bandwagon is a perfectly respectable career move. The problem is, the sources said: POLITICO Wall and Burkman operate their companies under the pseudonyms “Jay Klein” and “Bill Sanders.”

Robbiematic’s official website does not list a management team. A Delaware-registered company called Robbiematic lists its registered agent as “A Registered Agent, Inc.” When reached for comment, Robbiematic said in an email: The Verge With link to video A man who looks like Jacob WallIn the video, he acknowledges that he was involved in partisan politics “many years ago,” but later in the video he adds that he doesn’t want to let “partisan politics from five years ago get in the way of this great piece.”

The man never specifically identified himself as Wall at any point, nor did he address claims that he was running a company under an alias.

POLITICOThe report is based primarily on testimony from four anonymous former employees. The case can be summarized as follows:

when The Verge I sent an email to LobbyMatic, Hyperlink to X’s post The post was made by the account @TheLobbyistGuy. “To explain the situation,” the post says, and features a 4 minute 41 second video of a man who resembles Jacob Wall. “I have some news to respond to today,” the man says. “It’s no secret that many years ago I was involved in partisan politics. In Washington DC, that’s common knowledge of course. About five years ago, I was a young man, and since then I’ve focused my energies in a new direction.”

He then begins to pitch his software.
