The Problem

Down-ballot candidates have been underserved for decades.

NGP VAN was built for Congress. NationBuilder was built for national movements. Neither was built for the state rep candidate managing their own treasurer, filing quarterly reports by hand, and knocking doors on weekends.

  • 01State compliance systems are 20+ years old with no bulk import, no mobile access, and no platform integrations.
  • 02ActBlue, WinRed, Stripe, and PayPal all export different CSV formats. Reconciling them manually takes hours per filing period.
  • 03Traditional canvassing sends strangers to stranger's doors. Relational organizing — the most effective GOTV method — has no affordable tool built for it.
  • 04Enterprise software starts at $100-400/month with a learning curve built for full-time campaign staff. Most down-ballot candidates don't have that.

"NGP VAN had very little penetration, at least in my part of the country, to down-ballot races. It has a steep learning curve and is not exactly beloved by the campaigns that do use it."

Built by a Candidate

Not by a tech company that has never filed a campaign finance report.

BallotBond Base was built while running for Rhode Island State Senate District 5 in 2026 — using the product to file our own CF-3s, import our own ActBlue donations, and run our own relational organizing program.

The compliance module was built because the state's 2002-era ERTS system has no bulk import and no mobile access. The relational module was built because we needed it and nothing affordable existed. The canvassing module was already in the field.
