Stump, a mobile application, was created to address the challenge of misinformation and political propaganda that often clouds the political landscape. The founders, Brian Hedden and Henry Lai, recognized that many voters lacked a comprehensive understanding of certain issues, which often led to uninformed voting decisions. The challenge was to create a platform that would provide unbiased information on politicians, ballot measures, and other pressing issues, thereby encouraging civic participation. The founders also wanted to create a platform that would benefit not only voters but also larger organizations and politicians by providing a year-round political action platform.

Stump's primary customers are voters who seek unbiased information on politicians, ballot measures, and other pressing political issues. The app is designed to help these individuals separate political propaganda and misinformation from the facts, thereby enabling them to make more informed voting decisions. In addition to individual voters, Stump also aims to serve larger organizations and politicians by providing a platform for year-round political engagement. Organizations can use Stump to recruit new members and encourage existing ones to vote, while politicians can use the app's virtual town hall tools to expand their reach with constituents.

Stump was designed with a strong emphasis on visual aesthetic and functionality, setting it apart from other platforms. The app allows voters to compare candidates and politicians by issue, engage in discussions about ballot measures with other users, and create personal voter guides that they can share with friends. In the future, organizations will be able to use Stump to recruit new members and encourage existing ones to vote, while politicians will have access to virtual town hall tools, which will expand their reach with constituents. The app was built on Bubble, a no-code tool that allowed the team to quickly create a prototype with actual election data, providing richer insights and user feedback.

The creation of Stump has resulted in a platform that not only provides unbiased information to voters but also encourages civic participation. The app's visually appealing and functional design has set it apart from other platforms, attracting a wide range of users. The ability to compare candidates, engage in discussions, and create personal voter guides has empowered voters to make more informed decisions. Furthermore, the app's potential to serve as a recruitment tool for organizations and a virtual town hall for politicians has expanded its reach beyond individual voters. The overwhelmingly positive response to the bill-voting prototype indicates a promising future for the app.
Stump was able to quickly create a prototype with actual election data using Bubble, providing richer insights and user feedback.
The app was first tested in a local city council election in fall 2019, providing valuable feedback for future development.
In 2020, the team designed and built a bill-voting prototype, which is currently being promoted to organizations and individuals in Colorado.
