Mobile-first social networking apps for a political startup
About Yoopine
YooPine connects citizens to the political process by enabling voters to measure and track their elected
representatives.
Problem
The democratic process isn’t as transparent as it once was because representatives are controlled by
the special interests funding their campaigns.
Solution
YooPine selected CognitiveClouds because of our experience building mobile social networking products. The
native iOS and Android apps we built for YooPine allow citizens to vote alongside their elected
representatives on federal bills. Donation data links special interests to the voting record of each elected
representative to increase transparency. Citizens can write an email to their representative in one tap when
they don’t agree with their representative’s voting record.
Results
We helped YooPine launch their iOS and Android apps in time for the 2016 presidential election, which
exposed the app to a large audience of users.
