The Research Gap

Campaigns spend millions on messages
that nobody has ever actually tested.

Traditional research measures opinion, not persuasion, and it is too late to be actionable.

Six-figure ad buys chosen by committee, with no data on whether they move persuadable voters.
3–6 weeks and $50–100k. Your campaign timeline doesn't have room for that feedback loop.
Major donors and PAC investors are asking for proof that creative decisions are grounded in data.

Audience Targeting

Test with the exact voters
your campaign needs to move.

Generic national samples won't tell you how your district responds. Test with the exact audience that actually matters.

District-level

By congressional district, state senate seat, or county, results that reflect your actual electorate, not a national average.

Party & registration targeting

Test with Democrats, Republicans or independents.

Demographic sub-groups

The message that works for suburban women may backfire with rural men. Know before it runs by age, gender, race, education, and more.

Campaign Timeline

Test at every stage of your campaign.

The best campaigns build a continuous feedback loop from day one to GOTV.

01
Early campaign

Define your core message

Test a wide range of frames with your target electorate. Find what moves persuadable voters before you build your media plan around it.

Bio framesIssue prioritiesContrast testing
02
Active campaign

Optimize before you spend

Test ad scripts and mail pieces before production. A 15-point difference between two scripts costs the same to test as it does to ignore.

03
Final stretch

Reach persuadable voters by segment

Break down your results by a range of subgroups such as suburban women, Latino voters or likely to vote segments, and deploy the message that moves each group.

GOTV

Drive turnout with the right frame

Test urgency and social-proof frames for GOTV. Small message differences compound across millions of voter contacts.
