Overview
Oath Vote is a political advising platform that helps Democratic donors allocate money to campaigns with the most strategic impact using data-driven recommendations. It analyzes thousands of elections and uses a proprietary Impact Score, based on competitiveness, stakes, and financial need, to rank where donations are most effective, while protecting donor privacy. The platform does not charge campaigns and earns revenue from voluntary tips, backed by investors and accelerators. Its goal is to empower grassroots Democratic donors to maximize the impact of their contributions, keeping donor data private and the guidance transparent.
