Undercurrent reads what every state, congressional district, county, and city is paying attention to, updated continuously. Not a poll, not a projection. Actual signal.
Read how we're differentA different kind of signal
Most political intelligence tools watch social platforms: posts, shares, comments on X, Facebook, TruthSocial. That's performative data. People post for an audience.
Undercurrent watches actual content consumption across the open web. It's not curated for a public feed. What someone quietly reads at 11pm is a truer signal than what they broadcast at noon, and it covers the people who consume but never post (which is most of them).
The signal your competitors are reading is the one people chose to show. Ours is the one they didn't.
Platform Capabilities
Pollsters and public affairs teams use Undercurrent to answer the questions their current tools can't: what's moving in a district, county, or city right now, why it's moving, who's paying attention, and how to reach them.
Who Uses Undercurrent
Know what your district is thinking before your opponent does.
Continuous signal on issues, sentiment, and what's gaining traction, district by district. Stop guessing what the message should be. Build strategy on what people are actually reading and reacting to.
A read on what's moving between your poll waves.
See what people are actually paying attention to, not just what they report in a survey. Catch issue movement early. Know what's shifting before your next wave date.
Know what's building before it makes the news.
Watch issues rise or fade across specific districts in real time. When a story starts gaining ground, you'll see it before your client's opponents do. Deliver it as something they can act on.
Know what to say, and where to say it.
Find out which districts are soft on an issue before you start spending. Your targeting tools say who to reach. Undercurrent says what to say when you get there.
District-grade intelligence for races that don't get district budgets.
Mayoral, city council, school board, state legislative. Move from your county down to a single city and see what voters there are actually paying attention to — without buying a federal-cycle research package.
Track the issue, not the candidate.
Built for ballot-initiative campaigns, unions, hospital systems, and regional coalitions whose fight is local. Watch issue salience by city or county; see where to organize and where to spend; know which message is landing where.
How It Works
Millions of content signals captured daily from across the web. Aggregated, anonymized, and indexed to congressional geography.
15M+ SIGNALS / DAYEvery signal is mapped through two census-anchored hierarchies — state → congressional district → city, and state → county → city — so every signal resolves to a place at the level you need.
ALL DISTRICTSTopics are classified and sentiment is scored across an open list of issues that grows as new concerns surface — at every geography from state down to city.
