Systems we built and operate for an election services company. They're used to prepare, check and support real elections.
AI reads ballot PDFs from multiple voting-system vendors and extracts every contest, candidate and voting target into the charts used to build test decks.
Checks each ballot against the precinct report, candidate filings and state rules before it goes to print, then produces a sign-off report for programmers and proofers.
An AI helpdesk that answers an operations team's questions from its own documentation, with streaming answers and sign-in limited to the team.
Ballot reading that runs on local hardware with no cloud AI calls, checked against production output on real ballots.
Development, staging and production environments on AWS and Azure, with automated deploys and the day-to-day running of all of it.
// products
What we build when the client is us.
An app for iOS, Android and the web, backed by its own cloud API.
A top-down highway game: change lanes, pass cars, and avoid collisions as the road widens from three lanes to six.
// how we work
We design the system, write the code, deploy it and keep it running. Nobody hands off to anyone else, so the people who answer when something breaks are the ones who built it.
