For PACs and party committees

Five things a committee gets from The Political Group that a single campaign cannot

  1. 1. Bundling

    Bundle your candidates with us and unlock a volume breakpoint no single campaign reaches alone. The whole slate is priced on its combined list, and every race in it pays that rate.

  2. 2. Control

    You pay directly toward voter persuasion you can track yourself, dollar by dollar, and report the in-kind contribution to each candidate cleanly. Every program is itemized per candidate from the first quote.

  3. 3. The live dashboard

    Every bundled candidate gets a live campaign dashboard showing dials, conversations, voter identification and daily momentum as they happen. Not a weekly PDF. Unmatched anywhere.

  4. 4. The support tracker

    Across all your candidates: who is gaining, who is slipping, who needs help. Spend more where it matters and less where it does not, while there is still time to move money.

  5. 5. HyperPulse

    AI polling that reads the voters of any district in hours for a fraction of a traditional poll, and gets sharper as real voter contact calibrates it. With us you can sample real voters.
