We make it easy to let your constituents know what you're working on, to build accountability and trust
Step 1: an NGO launches an advocacy campaign
Campaigners identify a time-sensitive issue and alert their supporters, asking them to write to their representatives
Step 2: Citizens write and send emails to policy-makers
To show politicians they care about an issue, people take action. Instead of an overflowing inbox, policy-makers get clear, actionable summaries
Step 3: Representatives respond to their constituents
Representatives can easily reply to citizen demands, share their position on an issue, and showcase their policy work
More trust in democracy!

Increasing political polarisation, declining voter turnout, and a growing sense of detachment from political processes highlight the urgent need for innovative and more participatory models of governance.
