Model Diplomat

From Model UN to AP Gov, research you can cite.

One research tool for the whole school year: Model UN (MUN) position papers, Public Forum and Lincoln-Douglas evidence, Congressional Debate bills, AP Gov essays, and history papers. Every claim traced to a document you can open.

In McCulloch v. Maryland (1819), the Court upheld Congress's power to charter the Second Bank of the United States. Chief Justice Marshall read the Necessary and Proper Clause to allow any means 'appropriate' and 'plainly adapted' to a legitimate end — not only means that are strictly indispensable. 12

The Court also struck down Maryland's tax on the bank. Under the Supremacy Clause a state cannot tax a lawful federal institution, because 'the power to tax involves the power to destroy.' 13

For a federalism essay, it is the precedent to cite when you explain how national power reaches beyond the enumerated list — and Hamilton's 1791 opinion defending a national bank shows the same argument nearly three decades earlier. 4

One sourced workflow, start to final draft.

Ask, read, and draft without leaving the record.

Ask your first question

Model UN prep with a source behind every line.

Start with your country's actual record — UN votes, treaty status, official statements — then draft the position paper and the opening speech from it. When your chair asks where a figure came from, you can open the document.

Evidence for the round, not just the topic.

Public Forum, Lincoln-Douglas, and Congressional Debate all reward current, sourced evidence. Discover is a sourced feed of what moved this week, and search maps both sides of a resolution with the document behind each claim.

Explore debate prep

Understand it before the essay is due.

Guides and short daily lessons on how government and diplomacy actually work — rules of procedure, federalism, the UN system, how countries compare — so the research makes sense when you sit down to write.

Built on the primary record — not the open web.

Model Diplomat reasons over the documents teachers, judges, and chairs take seriously — constitutional text, court opinions, treaties, UN voting records, official statements. Every answer points back to one you can open.

Model Diplomat is an essential resource for diplomatic research. It helps students effectively research foreign policy positions while preserving the educational value of working through the material themselves.

I've tested out the site with a few historical UN questions, and am in awe of how it uses AI to speed research tasks.

What you’re wondering.

The questions we get asked first.

Use it the way you would use a library database: to find sources, understand the context, and check your reasoning. Your teacher, school, league, or conference sets the rules on AI-written text, so read those first. Every answer cites documents you can open, so you can verify the original, quote it, cite it yourself, and write the final version in your own words.
Yes — Model UN is where Model Diplomat started. Research your assigned country's record, compare it with the other delegations in your committee, then use the position paper generator, speech generator, and resolution formatter to get it into committee format. The Learn guides cover how to research, rules of procedure, and what chairs look for.
Ask for both sides of a resolution and you get the strongest arguments on each, with the source behind every claim — useful for a Public Forum case, the evidence under a Lincoln-Douglas framework, or an authorship speech on a Congressional Debate bill. It finds and explains evidence; cutting the cards and writing the case is still your job.
Yes. It is strongest on exactly those topics: constitutional clauses, Supreme Court opinions, how institutions work, and how political systems compare. Use it to understand a case or a concept before a free-response question, and use the Learn guides for AP US Government and AP Comparative Government to review a unit.
Yes. Test whether a topic has enough primary sources before you commit to it, find the documents, and understand the context around them. Keep your own notes on every source you use — a research paper is graded on your analysis and your bibliography, not on what a tool wrote.
No. Model Diplomat is retrieval-first: it searches an index of documents — constitutional text, court opinions, treaties, UN votes, official statements — before it writes, and each claim links to the source it came from. Open the source before you quote it anyway; that habit is what makes a citation yours.
A new account includes 200 AI searches on day one and 50 every day after. The daily allowance refills in place and does not stack. A search that fails costs nothing. Reading Discover, country profiles, and Learn does not use a search. See /pricing for Pro. Pro is the only paid plan for sale. It removes the daily cap and adds drafting, deep research, file analysis, automations, and memory. At full price (the US) Pro is $20/month or $144/year ($12/month billed annually). The price depends on the buyer's country, and the pricing page shows it. See /pricing for how Pro billing works in your country.
