Promises, numbers, and sources — nothing added.

Politicians make a lot of promises. Many of them contain a number: a jobs figure, a housing figure, a budget figure, a target date. Those numbers are checkable against official data, but doing the checking is slow, scattered across many reports, and easy to spin.

DidThey exists to make that check simple and honest. For each numerical promise we record what was said, we place the official number beside it, and we link the primary source. That is the whole product.

We are deliberately quiet about conclusions. You will not find a “kept” or “broken” label here, no delivery score, and no red-and-green scorecard. Those framings decide the argument for you. We would rather show you the figures and the sources and let you decide what they mean.

The site is nonpartisan. Any party that makes a numerical promise can appear here, treated the same way as any other. Numbers on the site are collected with the help of automated tools, so they can contain mistakes; each one links back to the official source so you can confirm it yourself.
