Votera is the canvassing app built for Ontario municipal races — a live volunteer map, teams and turf, resident cards, AI briefs and a full command center. One flat price for the whole election. Unlimited volunteers. Built and supported by ThreeDay Digital, so there is a real team behind every campaign.
The lowest prices you will see are monthly plans billed annually that leave out the live map, your branding and the native apps — and the Canadian tools that do bundle those will not publish a price at all. Votera publishes one number, includes everything, and puts a whole software company behind it.
Everything below ships in the one plan. Nothing is an add-on, a tier, or a "call us" — and each card says where the rest of the market falls short.
Watch every volunteer and every knocked door move across a street or satellite map in real time, with turf results tallied beside it.
Elsewhere: a +$99/mo add-onTag each household Supporter, Undecided, Not supporting or No answer in two taps; add lawn signs, rides and notes without leaving the step.
Elsewhere: paper, or a sales CRMSplit the ward into teams with their own streets, hand out turf, and see who is live and how many doors each has knocked.
Elsewhere: cut turf by hand in a spreadsheetCampaign-wide broadcasts, private per-team channels and one-to-one DMs — built into the same app the volunteer is already holding.
Elsewhere: a WhatsApp group nobody readsOne tap reads your turf and notes and writes a personal door-knock brief: hot streets, the issues residents raised, talking points.
Elsewhere: not offeredA do-and-don't playbook for the candidate's message, and a script coach that keeps first-time volunteers on it.
Elsewhere: a PDF nobody opensDictate the conversation as you walk to the next door — live dictation in four languages turns it into a note.
Elsewhere: typing with cold thumbsAdd a resident on the spot and a live Street View, Satellite or 3D view of the exact address loads inside the card.
Elsewhere: not offeredEvery door becomes a card; doors, supporters, signs and rides roll up into a support donut and a volunteer leaderboard automatically.
Elsewhere: a weekly spreadsheetSend us the voter file or your spreadsheet; we geocode, map and pre-cut the turf so the team knocks on day one. 300k-row imports welcome.
Elsewhere: DIY CSV, hoursOne click orders a volunteer's doors by walking distance, so a shift covers more houses with fewer steps.
Elsewhere: a paid add-onWard boundaries for the whole Greater Toronto Area are already in the app — pick your municipality and ward at signup and the map is scoped.
Elsewhere: upload your own shapefileCandidate photo, colours and tagline on every screen; every campaign runs in its own isolated tenant with 2FA and role-based access.
Elsewhere: locked to the top tierKeep logging in basements and stairwells; everything syncs the moment a bar of signal returns.
Elsewhere: often unstatedLive on the App Store, an Android app, and an instant web link — one account, every device, push notifications and haptics.
Elsewhere: "browser install" or iOS "coming"Stored in the Canada Central region, encrypted in transit and at rest, exportable as CSV any time — practices aligned with PIPEDA.
Elsewhere: servers abroadThere is no tier above you to buy. This is the whole list, and every campaign gets every line.
Real screens from the app. A live turf map, one-tap logging, team chat, an AI daily brief and a real-time command center — nothing here is a mock-up.
Every door on tonight's route is a card — green for supporters, red for opposed, amber for undecided, blue for the ones still to knock. Volunteers filter by today, tomorrow or this week and never ask "where do I go?"
Add a resident on the spot and a live Street View, Satellite or 3D view of the exact address loads inside the card — volunteers find the side door, the basement unit, the townhouse in the row.
Search any address or name, then tag the household Supporter, Undecided, Not supporting or No answer — plus lawn sign, ride to the polls, advance-poll ride and WhatsApp opt-in — without leaving the doorstep.
Campaign-wide announcements, private per-team channels and one-to-one direct messages — all in one chat built into the app, with unread badges and push notifications.
Watch every volunteer and knocked door move across a real street or satellite map in real time, with turf results tallied right beside them — doors, supporters, undecided, signs, rides, voters captured.
Doors, supporters, lawn signs and rides roll up automatically into a support-breakdown donut and a live volunteer leaderboard. Export it any time; hand a canvassing report to the candidate every Sunday.
Tap once and Votera reads your turf and notes to write a personal door-knocking brief — the hot streets, the issues residents raised last night, and the talking points that answer them.
Add volunteers, split the ward into colour-coded teams with their own streets, and see who is live and how many doors each has knocked. Log in as any volunteer to see exactly what they see.
Most campaigns are knocking real doors the same evening they sign up.
Pick your municipality and ward, add the candidate's photo and colours, and your private, branded ward app exists. No developer, no demo call required.
Invite volunteers with a link, group them into colour-coded teams, and hand out turf. Send us the voter file and we import it and pre-cut the streets for you.
Volunteers open the app and knock. You watch the map light up from the command center, read the AI brief the next morning, and adjust the plan.
Download Votera free on the App Store for iPhone and iPad, grab the Android app, or send volunteers an instant web link — one account, every device.
🔒 Privacy-first — the app only needs internet and your location while you're knocking doors. It never reads your email, your messages, or other apps.

Nomination day to election night is about four months in Ontario. Here is the bill for a campaign that wants a live map and its own branding — the two things every candidate asks for first.
Illustrative, from the prices each vendor publishes as of 2 Sep 2026; your quote may differ. The point stands: the "cheap" plan is only cheap on an annual contract without the features a campaign needs.
Votera is built and operated by ThreeDay Digital, an Ontario software company that builds AI receptionists, booking and messaging systems, and websites for local businesses across the GTA. The people who answer your email are the people who write the code — and they have shipped software that answers real phones for real businesses every day.
That is what the little extra on the price buys: a company with the depth to keep improving the app through the cycle, to import your file at 11 pm the night before your launch, and to still be here after election night.
Votera × ThreeDay DigitalVotera runs on the same platform ThreeDay Digital uses to run AI phone lines, texting and scheduling for businesses — so the pieces a campaign office keeps improvising are already built.
Pay once for the whole campaign, not every month. One plan, every feature, unlimited volunteers — no tiers to compare, and nothing held back for a higher price.
Spin up your branded ward app, invite volunteers, and knock real doors for 7 days — no credit card. After 7 days you activate right in the app: $799 for the full election cycle plus a one-time $197 build fee — or enter code VOTERA416 at checkout and it's $499 flat with the build fee waived. Your data is retained, never deleted.
Phone-verified signup, HST included at checkout, cancel any time during the trial.

VOTERA416 at checkout and the whole cycle is $499 flat, build fee waived.One plan, nothing held back. No tier to outgrow mid-campaign and no upgrade waiting for you in week three. Extra admin seats beyond 15 are $49 per cycle. A handful of lighthouse campaigns get their cycle free in exchange for a case study — ask.
“We ran our whole ground game from our phones. I could see every supporter light up on the map in real time — and knew exactly where to send the team next.”
Straight answers on pricing, trials, seats, data — and how Votera stacks up against the "cheap" plan and the Canadian alternatives.
Yes. Votera is one plan at one flat price for the entire election cycle — $799 per campaign, plus a one-time $197 build fee (or $499 flat with launch code VOTERA416). There's no monthly billing to forget, no per-seat math, no tiers to compare, and unlimited volunteers. A campaign is a seasonal, one-and-done sprint, so your pricing works the same way.
Because the cheapest sticker is not the price of a campaign. Ecanvasser's "$99" needs an annual contract — month-to-month is $299 — and it excludes the live field-tracking map (+$99/mo) and custom branding (Pro, $1,299/mo). The Canadian tools that do bundle those will not publish a price. Over a real four-month campaign Votera's flat $799 lands below the cheap plan's real bill, and it includes everything: the map, your branding, the AI layer, native apps, our team importing your file and cutting your turf, and a company behind it that picks up the phone. The extra is the value, not the software.
WardWalk is a Toronto-built campaign tool sold as an election-cycle pass with no per-user charge — a good model, and the same one we use. What we could not find on their public site: a published price, native iPhone and Android apps, built-in team chat, a live GPS map of volunteers, per-candidate branding, Street View per door, or where the data is stored. Votera publishes all of that, and you can start a trial tonight without booking a demo. If they show you something we missed, tell us — we read their site on 2 Sep 2026.
Both are Canadian, both are quote-first. Just Canvass includes calling and texting tools at 3.5¢ per text and per minute on top of its quote, runs on Android and in the browser with iOS "forthcoming", and does not mention team chat, AI briefs or Street View. Fieldcraft (by Campaign Insights, Ontario) is a CRM-plus-canvassing suite with iOS and Android apps and no public price. Votera is one published price, live tonight, with the live map, chat, AI brief, native apps and done-for-you import in the box.
You get full access to everything — the live map, team chat, the command center, and both native apps — for 7 days, with no credit card. Invite real volunteers and knock real doors before you decide. After the 7 days, you activate right in the app ($799 for the cycle plus a one-time $197 build fee, or $499 flat with VOTERA416) to keep going — your data is retained, never deleted.
Volunteers are always free and unlimited — knock with a team of 5 or 500 at no extra cost. Seats are manager/admin logins (the people who cut turf, watch the command center and message teams), and every campaign gets 15 of them. Need more? Extra admin seats are $49 per cycle.
You do, and it lives in Canada. Every campaign runs in its own isolated tenant on infrastructure in the Canada Central region, sealed off at the database level from every other campaign, protected by 2FA and role-based permissions with opt-in location, encrypted in transit and at rest. Your voter file and door data are yours to export as CSV any time — during the campaign or after it. We never sell or share your data. Details on our data & security page.
Yes to both. Volunteers keep logging doors when the signal drops in a basement or stairwell, and Votera syncs everything back the moment they reconnect. There are genuine native apps — Votera is live on the App Store, the Android app is available from this page, and there's an instant web link, so any volunteer is knocking within seconds of your invite.
Easily. Import a CSV, an Excel file or a voter file and Votera geocodes and maps every address in minutes — 300,000-row imports included, with segments so a slate can split its data. Or send it to us: every campaign gets the import and the turf build done for it, so your team can knock on day one.
It means Votera is a product of an Ontario software company with a track record of running AI phone lines, texting and scheduling for real businesses — not a hackathon project. You get a white-glove onboarding call, a WhatsApp priority line, a dedicated success contact for the cycle, weekly improvements to the app, and the option to add a 24/7 AI campaign phone line, supporter texting or a campaign website from the same team. See Part of ThreeDay Digital.
Give your campaign a private, branded canvassing app with a live command center — built in Ontario, backed by ThreeDay Digital, for one flat price. It can be live tonight.
