Where the money goes
eccelsia runs no ads and sells no data. Core civic research stays free; optional Premium subscriptions fund personalized tools and operating costs.
What it costs to run
Servers & hosting
The site has to stay fast and online for every voter, especially in the weeks before an election when traffic spikes. Hosting and bandwidth are our largest fixed cost.
Data access
Federal records from the FEC are free, but high-volume access, ballot-by-address lookups, and future state and local data sources carry usage fees that scale with the number of voters we serve.
Accuracy & review
Every explanation and AI-assisted answer is checked against the official public filing. Tooling and review time keep our neutrality promise real, not just a slogan.
Reaching more voters
State and local races are where information is scarcest. Expanding coverage to all 50 states' down-ballot races and propositions is our next big investment.
Free for everyone
Available races and candidate records, campaign-finance data, the comparison tool, official voting guides and the anonymous pledge counter remain free. No subscription is needed for these tools.
