About this Dashboard
This dashboard surfaces **high-level metrics** for each Title of the eCFR so you can quickly gauge where the heaviest regulations lie, track changes over time, and verify data integrity.
- Total Word Count: The total number of words in that Title. Larger counts often indicate more complex or voluminous regulation.
- Cross-Reference Density: How many internal references (e.g. “see § 5.12”) occur per 1,000 words—an indicator of interdependency and complexity.
- Defined-Term Density: How many legally defined terms per 1,000 words—higher densities often mean more specialized, precise language.
- Checksum: A SHA-256 fingerprint of the full text, so you can detect if the regulations have changed since your last view.
Use the search box or the pagination controls to find the Title you care about. Click any Title tile to drill into its historical word-count trend. Charts auto-refresh every 15 seconds.

Comparative Metricsℹ️
Blue: Total Word Count
Orange: Cross-refs per 1,000 words. The number of times this Title refers you elsewhere in the CFR. A high cross-ref density means the Title is highly interlinked. Understanding it often requires jumping around multiple other sections. Fewer cross-refs implies a more self-contained, standalone set of rules.
Green: Defined terms per 1,000 words. The count of legally defined words (the ones that appear in all-caps or are explicitly “defined” in a definitions section). Higher density indicates more technical or precise terminology. Each defined term often carries a narrow, legally binding definition. Lower density suggests more free-form narrative or fewer legal “shorthand” terms to keep track of.
