An AI chatbot answering your questions about
gun violence and gun safety, powered by
the Everytown Knowledge Base.

AskEverytown, one of the initial projects of Everytown Labs, is a first-of-its-kind chatbot that answers your questions with the help of Evy, your AI assistant. Powered by the ever-expanding Everytown Knowledge Base, AskEverytown provides in-depth, accessible expertise on gun violence statistics, laws, and insights.

We have worked to make sure the responses you receive from AskEverytown are reliable. Every answer is grounded in accurate data and current research, and provided with real sources. You should always check sources before relying on AskEverytown.

We also are committed to a safe experience. AskEverytown operates under thoughtful guardrails so that it will not provide answers to questions that seem to be seeking to evade gun laws, create a dangerous situation, or manipulate this tool with malicious intent, in addition to other prohibitions contained in our terms of use. We will remove access for users who violate our terms of use.

Where does AskEverytown get its information from?
AskEverytown draws on a knowledge base of gun violence data, gun violence prevention policies, peer-reviewed research, litigation documents, investigations of the firearms industry, and much more.

What can I ask AskEverytown?
AskEverytown’s capabilities include providing simple text-based responses, conducting quantitative analysis, and even producing draft forms of articles and social content.

Questions like:

  • What are the best policies to prevent gun violence in schools?
  • Write a short article describing the problem of gun theft and how to address it.
  • Have gun suicides in Florida increased since 2020?
  • Rank US states in order of gun deaths per capita.
  • What are Extreme Risk laws?
  • Does Colorado prohibit assault weapons?

We will be constantly working to improve AskEverytown’s performance! Please rate and leave detailed feedback on the responses, whether positive or negative, as this is critical input to our efforts.
