AI & Democracy Directory

438 organizations, policy campaigns, and ballot measures across the US, national and in 47 states. They work on AI in elections, election integrity, AI safety, kids’ online safety, AI laws, data centers, and AI for civic life. Filter by topic, type, or the state a group is active in. It maps the wider ecosystem; being listed doesn’t mean a group is part of our Trustworthy AI & Elections campaign.

It’s here so people working on the same problems can find each other, and so you can find the people near you. Listing isn’t endorsement, and the list includes groups that disagree with each other, on purpose.

On the ballot. 66 measures on the November 3 ballot are listed, on elections and voting, democracy reform, and data centers (33 of them, all local). No statewide AI measure qualified this year. The best known, a California initiative on kids and AI chatbots, was paused in February before signatures were turned in. Each lists the campaigns for and against it, where there are organized ones, so you can join either side or just learn more.

The national list was last updated October 16, 2026. Summaries are ours, written from each group’s own site and, for ballot measures, state election offices and Ballotpedia. Spot a mistake, or know a group that belongs here? Tell us.

Bring your work to the Trustworthy AI & Elections call

If you’re on this list, or should be, come to the campaign update call: where the statement stands, three-minute updates on related work, and how to help in the last week before the election.

The statement asks AI and platform companies to show the public how they keep elections fair, accurate and secure, around principles people of any party can support. It endorses no candidate, party, or bill. Read and sign it.

How this directory works

Who’s here, and how we label them

Who’s listed

An organization is listed for a region when it has an office or chapter there, has held public events there in the past year, or runs a product or program people there use. Civic tech and statewide groups often count for both. National groups with no local tie aren’t listed for a region.

The AI & democracy list is national: organizations, policy campaigns and ballot measures working on AI, elections and democracy reform anywhere in the US.

Funders are listed when their own website says they fund civic engagement, democracy, or part of the five principles.

Descriptions are ours, written from each organization’s own website, and kept short and neutral. Logos are the organizations’ own, shown so they’re easy to recognize. Claimed profiles are written by the organization.

Leaning

Our best judgment from each group’s leadership and staff, partners and funders, the positions it takes, and what it publishes, applied the same way in both directions. Party committees and clubs follow their party. Groups led by people from different parties, built to bring them together, are cross-partisan.

Government offices, libraries, most universities and nonpartisan service groups are “No affiliation or unclear”, as is any group where the evidence is thin, which includes most of the national list for now. We don’t guess.
