With a sharp eye toward 2024, Higher Ground Labs is proud to introduce you to eight promising startups pushing political tech to new heights.

Our sixth accelerator cohort joins us from Atlanta to Arkansas to New York. They have a breadth and depth of experience — in roles including presidential campaign strategists, digital media experts, and AI engineers — from organizations like the DNC, the US Army, and Twitter.

These companies are building products focused on empowering donors through innovative fundraising tactics, supporting organizers through seamless data integrations, and reaching marginalized voters through trusted messengers. They are leveraging generative AI for rapid response, deploying relational organizing to unlock social capital, and transforming the relationship between elected representatives and the communities they serve.

We believe these founders are reinventing the role of technology in politics.
