Gaining Momentum

Good Party (GoodParty.org) is a high-potential civic-tech initiative led by a proven serial entrepreneur (Farhad Mohit). The project addresses a significant real-world problem (political polarization) with timely AI-driven tools for independent candidates. While the submission relies on the founder's past successes ('most people have used my product' refers to TikTok/Flipagram, not this project) and lacks specific current user metrics, the market timing for 2024 is optimal. The project scores well on utility and timing but lower on verifiable traction compared to established brands like the calibration reference.

Description
Our democracy has been corrupted by a two-party system that serves moneyed interests, leaving the people apathetic, or having to choose between the lesser of two evils, neither of which truly serve them. \n\nWhether you’re concerned about the climate, privacy, inequality, or our individual freedoms, all are hampered by the dark doom-loop of dysfunctional partisan politics. It’s no wonder that a majority of eligible voters (over 130M Americans), including more than half of Millennials and Gen Z, say that neither Republicans, nor Democrats represent them. \n\nWe’re building tools to change the rules and disrupt the corrupt, creating a brighter future for all! Our plan is to use the free, open-source tech we create as a lever that marshals the creative community and mobilizes digital natives–who will be the majority of voters by 2024–to vote differently. As they do, we’ll be building a virally growing movement that gives truly independent, grassroots candidates from across the political spectrum a real chance of running and winning elections, for the first time in modern history! \n\nThe organization is founded by serial entrepreneur, Farhad Mohit (farhadmohit.com), with over $1B in exits — Flipagram (now TikTok), Shopzilla, and BizRate.\n\nGood Party is a fully-funded startup organized as a Public Benefit Corporation. Our diverse team is 100% remote and from all across the political spectrum and country.\n\nIf this sounds like a challenge you’re up for, check out our open roles!
