The problem

Political organizations carry the operational load of a large business on a fraction of the budget — and pay more, not less, for the tools to run it.

Grassroots and advocacy organizations don't operate like typical companies. At peak, a few staff coordinate hundreds or thousands of volunteers — the same operational load as a business pulling in tens of millions, on a tiny fraction of the budget.

Per-user pricing punishes exactly the kind of growth political work depends on. And the usual escape hatch is closed: political organizations don't qualify for nonprofit discounts. Campaigns, PACs, and 501(c)(4)s doing issue advocacy pay the full commercial rate for tools built for businesses that grow linearly.
