AUTOMATEDTEAMS
Last month, a new AI technology came out that changed how campaigns operate. It'll happen again before your yard signs go up.
If your campaign is locked into a static platform — you are falling behind right now. And it's going to keep happening every few weeks until Election Day.
Built by a former State Legislator.
WHY THIS MATTERS
THE VELOCITY ARGUMENT
When I started building AI systems, it was 40-node workflows. Fifteen API connections. Days to build one automation. Then one morning, I replaced the entire thing with a single conversation. Not gradually. Overnight.
That's not the tools getting better. That's the entire way of building getting replaced. And it keeps happening.
Campaigns run 6 to 18 months. AI changes every 6 weeks. If you buy a "campaign AI product," you're locked into whatever it could do when they built it. By the time you need it most, it's a generation behind.
| What You're Used To | What Changes |
|---|---|
| Consultant recommends a strategy, then leaves | We operate systems alongside you through Election Day |
| Same service package for every client | Built around your specific race and budget |
| Waiting weeks for vendor updates | System adapts the night something changes |
| Hours spent on donor research before calls | Research done automatically from public sources |
| Follow-up emails that go out days late | Same-day follow-up drafted in your candidate's voice |
Other firms sell you what worked. I build with what works.
THE MACHINE
Other tools make you the connector. Ours connects itself.
Every piece talks to every other piece.
Scan a business card → CRM updated → Call scheduled → Follow-up queued → All automatic.
THE PRODUCTS
Not individual tools. A connected intelligence that runs your campaign's daily operations.
Ghost prospects. Varys enriches. Raven emails. Stan creates. EV answers. The Hand coordinates. They talk to each other. You're the approver, not the connector.
THE HAND
Your AI Operations Coordinator
This is the agent that coordinates all the others. You talk to it like you'd talk to a chief of staff. 'I need follow-up from tonight's event.' 'What's our donor pipeline look like?' Not a chat widget. A full AI operator that knows your campaign, your donors, your messaging, your deadlines.
Ghost
Individual Email
The personal emails that actually matter. Thank-you notes that reference the real conversation. Follow-ups after fundraising calls that sound like your candidate wrote them. One-to-one emails that build relationships — not bulk blasts.
EV
Voice Reception
Your campaign phone answered around the clock. Qualifies callers, routes to the right person, logs everything. No more missed opportunities because your team was in a meeting.
Varys
Donor Intelligence
Start with anything — a business card, a website form, a name from a conversation. Get the full picture: giving history from public sources, business connections, political relationships. Most importantly: who do you need to talk to first to make the introduction?
Stan
Video Production
Fundraising videos, candidate introductions, issue explainers, event recaps, social content — produced continuously without a production company or a videographer's schedule. Scripts, voiceover, editing handled by AI. Your content calendar stays full.
Raven
Email Fundraising Engine
Your fundraising emails go out on schedule — segmented by donor history, timed for when people actually open them, and tested so every send performs better than the last. You approve the emails, the system handles everything else: list management, send timing, follow-up sequences, and compliance. When someone donates, they get a thank-you that matches the moment. When someone goes quiet, they get a re-engagement sequence before you lose them.
Pick what you need. Or use them all. They know how to talk to each other.

2026
Campaigns will lose elections this year because their AI is stuck in a box.
A new model drops. A new capability emerges. Everything changes overnight.
Your vendor is on a six-month release cycle. Your opponent's consultant adapts before breakfast.
That gap compounds every week of a campaign cycle.
I don't sell software. I join your team. When the paradigm shifts—and it will—we shift with it. That night.
THE EDGE
You don't need more staff. You need the staff you have to be twice as effective.
Every campaign has the same 24 hours. The difference is what happens in the gaps — the follow-up email after a fundraising call, the donor research before a meeting, the thank-you note that goes out same-day instead of next-week.
The Machine handles the operational grind. Your team focuses on the work that actually requires a human: building relationships, making asks, showing up.
Same team. Dramatically more output.

THE BUILDER
Every decade, I've helped people adopt the next wave of technology before others saw the shore:
Helped realtors get online when “internet” was still a novelty
Brought Web 2.0 to political campaigns when “social media strategy” was pioneering
Won my own longshot Assembly race using a technology edge
Building the AI operations layer that runs campaigns
California State Assembly, 2012–2016
4 years in the chamber. Passed actual legislation. Won the race that political insiders said couldn't be done.
I didn't read about campaigns in a textbook. I lived in the trenches. That's the difference between me and every AI vendor pitching campaigns right now.
