Core Principles
At Our Voices, two core values guide everything we do: Transparency and Accountability. These aren't just features of the app. They shape every business decision we make.
We're building tools to increase trust in government, and we hold ourselves to the same standard. That means clear practices, open communication, and a commitment to being accountable to our users.
In a system where corruption can thrive in the shadows, we believe making information accessible is essential to exposing inequality and driving change.
Democracy works best when voters have clear, trustworthy information about what their representatives actually do.
We started Our Voices because that simple premise felt increasingly out of reach. Over the past decade, we watched the political landscape shift in troubling ways. One administration would build programs, the next would dismantle them, creating massive inefficiency and waste. Social media promised to connect us but instead fragmented our discourse into isolated echo chambers. Trust in information eroded, and with it, faith in the system itself.
But we didn't see this as inevitable. We saw it as a problem worth solving.
We had the skills to make a difference.
For years, we've built AI systems that transform massive amounts of unstructured data into clear, actionable insights. First for government projects, then for major law firms and healthcare policy work. We became experts at helping professionals cut through complexity and find truth in the noise.
Then it hit us: why should only experts have access to these tools? Everyday voters deserve the same clarity about their democracy. So we got to work building Our Voices with a straightforward mission: nonpartisan information and practical tools to genuinely make an impact.
Building common ground takes patience, but it's the only path forward.
Every day, we talk with people across the political spectrum: analysts, activists, concerned citizens. Our job is to listen to everyone, synthesize different perspectives, and help build bridges. Meaningful compromise isn't flashy or immediate. It's painstaking and iterative, requiring real patience and good faith.
But this is exactly how we build lasting stability. That's our commitment: clear information, genuine validation, and more power for everyday voices.

At a top 100 law firm, Noah led the development of legal AI platforms for document classification, data extraction, and review triage. This work has collectively saved clients tens of millions of dollars and years of document review time. He also built secure data pipelines and analytics for a U.S. defense contractor, improving time-to-insight under strict security and compliance requirements.
Noah earned an MS in Business Analytics and holds degrees in Physics and Astronomy from UMass Amherst. He founded Our Voices to bridge the gap between technical capability and civic need, making government information clear, trustworthy, and actionable for everyone.
What the App Does
Our Voices uses artificial intelligence to analyze official government records (bill text, vote history, campaign finance data, and election information), then generates easy-to-understand summaries. This isn't spin or anyone's interpretation. It's what actually happened, made accessible.
- Look up any politician to see their voting record, funding sources, and legislative focus areas based on their actual votes and sponsored bills.
- Read AI-generated bill summaries written in plain language, derived solely from official bill text. No media bias, no political framing.
- Preview your ballot by entering your ZIP code to see upcoming races, candidates, and measures before election day.
- Explore by topic to find legislation and political action on healthcare, education, the environment, economic policy, and more.
Coming Soon

Where We're Headed
We're piloting in key states throughout 2025 to refine how feedback from voters gets aggregated and delivered to legislators. By 2026, we aim to cover all 50 states and onboard 100+ local governments. And in 2027, we'll release an enterprise edition to help large organizations solve top-down communication problems.
The long-term goal is a democracy that feels less chaotic and more responsive. We won't agree on everything, but with clearer information and tighter feedback loops, we can at least steer together.
