Votera gives any candidate a private, ward-scoped door-knocking app — a live volunteer map, teams and turf, resident cards and a full command center. One flat price for the whole election. Unlimited volunteers.
Download Votera free on the App Store for iPhone and iPad, grab the Android app, or send volunteers an instant web link — one account, every device.
🔒 Privacy-first — the app only needs internet and your location while you're knocking doors. It never reads your email, your messages, or other apps. Sign in with Google, Apple or your phone, so there's no password to reuse.
From the first CSV import to election-night GOTV, Votera keeps every volunteer, every door, and every data point in sync — live.
A real-time GPS map of every volunteer and every door, colour-coded by support. See where your team is and where to send them next.
One tap logs Support, Undecided, Not supporting, or No answer — with notes, voter issues, and photos. No clipboards, no transcription.
Organise volunteers into teams, assign each their own turf, and give captains a live view of who's out and how their streets are tracking.
Broadcast to everyone, message a single team, or DM one volunteer — all in-app. No more juggling group texts and WhatsApp threads.
Every morning, Votera reads the ward's notes and hands each volunteer a brief: hot streets, top issues, and talking points — auto-summarised.
Rich cards for every door, plus a live scoreboard: doors knocked today, support tally by street, and a volunteer leaderboard.
Drop in a voter file or a spreadsheet and Votera geocodes and maps it in minutes. Export your results back out any time — your data, always.
Six themes and per-ward branding put your name, photo and colours on the app — inside an isolated tenant with 2FA and role-based logins.
Volunteers keep logging doors when the signal drops in a basement or stairwell — Votera syncs it all back the moment they reconnect.
Real App Store and Google Play apps with haptics and push notifications — plus an instant web link, so any volunteer is knocking in seconds.
No data team, no week-long setup. Sign up, provision your branded tenant, and your volunteers are knocking the same evening.
Sign up and Votera spins up your own isolated, branded ward tenant in minutes — your name, your ward, your colours. Import a voter file or drop pins by hand.
Create volunteer logins in seconds, group them into teams, and hand each team its own turf with a tap. Everyone gets the app link by text, email or WhatsApp.
Volunteers knock and log in one tap; you watch support build in real time from the command center — and export it all any time.
The whole ground game in your pocket — a live turf map, one-tap door logging, team chat, an AI daily brief, and a real-time command center.
Every door on today's route becomes a card — green for supporters, red for opposed, amber for undecided — so volunteers always know exactly where to knock next.
Live turf map
Add a resident on the spot and a live Street View, Satellite or Google Earth 3D of the exact address loads right inside the card.
Street View built in
Search any address or name, then tag each household Supporter, Undecided, Not supporting or No answer without leaving the doorstep.
One-tap canvassing
Campaign-wide announcements, private per-team channels and one-to-one direct messages — all in one chat built into the app.
Team chat
Watch every volunteer and knocked door move across a real street or satellite map in real time, with turf results tallied right beside them.
Real-time map
Doors, supporters, lawn signs and rides roll up automatically into a support-breakdown donut and a live volunteer leaderboard.
Campaign stats
Tap once and Votera reads your turf and notes to write a personal door-knocking brief — hot streets, key issues and talking points.
AI daily brief
Add volunteers, split the ward into colour-coded teams with their own streets, and see who's live and how many doors each has knocked.
Teams & turfThe tools a candidate wants most — a live volunteer map, per-ward branding, an AI brief — are standard in Votera. Elsewhere they're paid add-ons, locked to higher tiers, or simply missing.

Votera$499 flat / cycleVotera IncludedVotera IncludedVotera IncludedVotera IncludedVotera IncludedVotera IncludedVoteraMinutesVotera IncludedPay once for the whole campaign, not every month. Unlimited volunteers on every tier — the ladder is admin seats, service, and power features, never a cap on your field team.
Early-bird: lock Starter at $399/cycle before the cutoff. A hard election date makes urgency honest — and a handful of lighthouse campaigns get their cycle free in exchange for a case study.
We ran our whole ground game from our phones. I could see every supporter light up on the map in real time — and knew exactly where to send the team next.
Straight answers on pricing, trials, seats, data and how Votera stacks up against the “cheap” competitor plan.
Yes. Votera is one flat price for the entire election cycle — $499 (Starter), $999 (Pro) or $1,499 (Campaign+) per campaign. There's no monthly billing to forget, no per-seat math, and unlimited volunteers on every tier. A campaign is a seasonal, one-and-done sprint, so your pricing works the same way.
You get full access to everything — the live map, team chat, the command center, and both native apps — for 7 days, with no credit card. Invite real volunteers and knock real doors before you decide. After the 7 days, you pick your plan right in the app (Starter, Pro or Campaign+, plus a one-time $397 build fee) to keep going — your data is retained, never deleted.
Volunteers are always free and unlimited on every tier — knock with a team of 5 or 500 at no extra cost. Seats are manager/admin logins (the people who cut turf, watch the command center and message teams): 2 on Starter, 6 on Pro, 15 on Campaign+. Need one more? Extra admin seats are $49 per cycle.
That $99 is a mirage for a campaign. It needs an annual commitment — month-to-month is about $299/mo — and it excludes the two things a candidate wants most: the live field-tracking map is a +$99/mo add-on, and per-ward branding is locked to the higher (~$599) tier. A campaign-usable plan realistically runs $200–$400/mo. Votera is one flat $499 for the whole cycle, with the map and branding included.
You do. Every campaign runs in its own isolated tenant, sealed off at the database level from every other campaign, protected by 2FA and role-based permissions with opt-in location. Your voter file and door data are yours to export as CSV any time — during the campaign or after it. We never sell or share your data.
Yes to both. Volunteers keep logging doors when the signal drops in a basement or stairwell, and Votera syncs everything back the moment they reconnect. And there are genuine native apps for the App Store and Google Play with haptics and push notifications — plus an instant web link, so any volunteer is knocking within seconds of your invite.
Easily. Import a CSV or a voter file and Votera geocodes and maps every address in minutes — no data team required. On Pro and Campaign+ we do the import and pre-cut your turf for you, so your team can knock on day one.
Give your campaign a private, branded canvassing app with a live command center — for one flat price. It can be live tonight.
