About us

We create technology that empowers our customers to improve democracy

From Clear Ballot's® beginnings as a post-election auditing company, we have set out to create modern, innovative tools that support secure, accurate, and transparent elections. Our solutions scale to election jurisdictions of all sizes, and respond directly to the budgetary realities of counties and municipalities. Our EAC-certified ClearVote® system combines our innovative Vote Visualization technology and modern hardware with voter-verifiable and auditable paper ballots. Our election technology is currently used in thirteen states, and we partner with more than 150 jurisdictions.
