OpenBallot: an app voters actually use and love.

You care about voting. You want to make good decisions. But your ballot is long, the races are confusing, and you've only got so much time.

That's where OpenBallot comes in: a simple app that shows you what trusted guides -- like newspapers, advocacy orgs, local experts, and well-informed friends -- recommend for every item on your ballot. No more opening endless tabs, juggling a dozen voter guides, and doing last-minute Google searches the night before the election. In OpenBallot, you follow the sources you trust, compare their picks side by side, and make your own choices directly in the app.

Some people finish their ballot in under five minutes. Others use it to dig deeper and feel more confident than ever. However you use it, you end up with a vote that feels clear, aligned, and genuinely satisfying -- like democracy actually works.

After a successful pilot in San Francisco, we're now raising funding to become the go-to source for California elections -- bringing a fast, transparent, and trustworthy voting experience to every kind of voter, in every kind of election.
