Support This Project

Last updated: July 2026

Center Field Politics is a proof-of-concept, non-partisan voter-education tool. It is offered free to everyone, and it is currently self-funded. If you find it useful, you can make a voluntary contribution to help keep it online and growing. This is support for the website itself — not a political contribution to any candidate, campaign, or party.

What your support funds

Contributions go toward the real costs of operating the project:

  • Infrastructure — hosting, the domain, and the public data APIs that power the site.
  • AI and data-processing licenses — the generative-AI and data tools used to research, summarize, and score officials and candidates from public sources.
  • Development — ongoing work to expand coverage, add features, and keep the data current.

Why support is needed

The project is currently self-funded. Because of its heavy use of generative AI, researching and populating each new state carries a real AI and data-processing cost, and many updates are required as we head through the midterms. Contributions help load additional states and keep existing data current. If your state is not yet available, you can request that it be prioritized on the corrections and requests page, and optionally pair the request with a small contribution here.
