Nice job! I've been thinking about something like this for a while, hoping it could restore the real democracy. I've fwd it to my representatives in my country and i do hope they'll consider it. One question i have - are you taking steps into securing the registration process? I mean, one problem that popped into my head was people who will try to sabotage this product and the votes, by creating multiple accounts or by creating BOTs.

@cosminbaluta Great question, right now our security is just requiring people to enter their address and verify their email account. We could see spam becoming an issue as it grows larger so we may have to implement additional verification steps. A good example of a model we might use for verification of residency is nextdoor.

Hi PH, I originally had the idea for Involved five years ago when I was in high school. At the time, I was pretty disengaged and discouraged by politics, especially with how polarizing it was. I was fairly lazy and could not have told you who my representatives were or what issues were going on. However, I had a passion for solving problems and cared about my community. What I needed was a civic tool that would effectively engage myself, the average citizen. Involved solves this problem by making voicing your opinion as easy as possible. With Involved, you can receive single question surveys from your representatives at all levels of government via email or our app. All you have to do is simply click your opinion to respond or reply to leave a comment. We've been beta testing in Massachusetts at the state and local level and are now launching nationwide. I'd be happy to answer any questions and would love to hear everyone's feedback. If you really like the idea, feel free to sign up and invite your representatives to join from our website.
