How we use AI

The short version: AI in the back office, a human out front, and always disclosed.

Candidate Copilot is an AI back office for down-ballot campaigns. Here is exactly where the AI works and where it does not.

Where AI runs

In the back office: watching City Hall and the local press, keeping your briefing current, tracking filing deadlines, sorting your inbox, and assembling first drafts. This work runs on its own so a small campaign gets the output of a full staff.

Where AI never runs alone

Anything voters see. Every mailer, post, letter, or public reply is a draft that waits for a person to review, edit, and approve. The platform has no send path, so nothing reaches a voter without you. You, and your team, stay the speaker of record.

How we disclose it

We follow applicable state AI-disclosure laws, and when the rules are unclear, we disclose anyway. We never create synthetic media or impersonate any real person.

Where its facts come from

Grounding is your own documents and the public record, with a source on every claim. The AI will not invent facts about law, benefits, or eligibility, and when it is unsure it hands off to a person instead of guessing.
