About Us

Equitable democracy, for all

Civitech’s mission is to make democracy accessible to all Americans by building technology infrastructure that empowers political candidates, social causes, and local governments to foster a fairer democratic process for all. Addressing challenges like the fact that 75% of U.S. elections go uncontested and combating suppression efforts that hinder voter participation, we envision a society where leaders compete on ideas and values, ensuring equal opportunities for all to vote, run for office, and engage with elected officials.

Guided by our core values of integrity, innovation, collaboration, and boldness, Civitech offers affordable, accessible solutions to candidates and organizations alike to inform campaigns and streamline voter outreach and engagement.

Integrity

We uphold high standards and use rigorous design, testing, and data science to ensure accuracy and continuous improvement. Our clients and partners can anchor to Civitech as a source of transparency, clarity, and trust.

Change

As long as barriers exist between community members and the democratic process, we will pursue change to ensure all voters and candidates alike have their voices heard.

Collaboration

We form partnerships with the goal of understanding our partners’ challenges, then committing our skills and resources to solving them and providing long-term support against oppressive forces.

Boldness

Disruptive change challenges the corporate status quo. Civitech seeks to revolutionize civic engagement by introducing innovative solutions in political technology.

Data is most powerful when you know how to use it.

We package voter registration data in an accessible, actionable format to ensure our clients and partners have what they need to start making change in their communities.
