Platform Features

Everything your campaign needs. Nothing it doesn't.

Purpose-built for grassroots campaigns. Every feature is designed to multiply volunteer effort, reach more voters, and give your team a real edge on election day.

01

Knock First (Pre-Call Texting)

Warm up every call before you dial. Knock First sends an automated text to voters before your volunteers pick up the phone, so they know exactly who's calling and why.

  • Send an automated text before every call: "[Candidate], running for [Office], will be calling shortly. Reply STOP to opt out."
  • Increases answer rates by letting voters know who's calling
  • Automatic DNC/STOP compliance built in
  • Configurable opt-out windows (30/45/60 seconds)
