Jon Seaton, founding Partner at Echo Canyon Consulting, has developed a platform to reshape how data and AI can improve the ground game of field canvassing. Field data, often manually audited and slowly made available, is a key source of information for campaigns, and intentional inaccuracies or accidental errors can quickly contaminate datasets downstream.  While many AI solutions focus on generating content, this solution focuses on verifying that a human has actually conducted the work.

We talk about:

  • Previous struggles with data reliability from field canvassers leading to poor strategic campaign decisions
  • Fraud detection and what canvassers think they can get away with
  • How near real-time reporting allows for corrective actions and feedback to canvassers
  • Why door-to-door canvassing remains the most effective campaign tool
