Audited · Tamper-evident · Live tally

Transactional voting. Auditable cast to tally.

Run a proxy vote, a member election, or an opinion survey across web, IVR, SMS, and live phone — on one platform. Every ballot tokenized, every cast logged, every tally certifiable. Built for the kind of voting that ends up in a regulator's report.

Channels

Vote where your audience already is.

Web, IVR, SMS, or live phone — the same ballot, the same audit log, the same tally. Pick the channels your voters can actually use; the platform handles the rest.

Ballot lifecycle

Open. Cast. Tally. Audit.

Every vote runs through the same observable pipeline. Tokens are issued and tracked; casts are validated, deduped, and committed; tallies update in real time. The audit trail is built — not bolted on.

01 / OPEN

Ballot configured. Tokens issued.

Configure the ballot, the eligibility list, and the channels. Single-use signed tokens issued per eligible voter — impossible to forge, impossible to replay.

Ballot Eligibility Token issue Channel select
02 / CAST

Vote received. Token validated.

Vote arrives from any channel — web, IVR, SMS, agent. Token signature checked, eligibility re-confirmed, duplicates rejected, vote committed.

Multi-channel Token verify Dedupe Commit
03 / TALLY

Real-time count. Certified report.

Tally updates as votes commit — visible in PASSPort, exportable on demand. At close, a tamper-evident report with hashed audit log, channel breakdown, and full provenance.

Audit posture

The audit log is the product.

Anyone can count votes. The hard part is producing a record that survives a contested election, a regulator's inquiry, or a court's subpoena. Talon's voting platform is built from the audit log inward.

  • Per-vote signed receipt with timestamp, channel, and token hash
  • Tamper-evident chained audit log — mutations break the chain
  • Channel-attributed tallies (X% web, Y% IVR, Z% SMS)
  • Eligibility list snapshotted at ballot open; never re-fetched
  • Certified close-of-poll report with hash anchor
  • Full reconciliation export — one row per cast, every field
Use cases

What gets voted on, and where.

The same platform runs everything from a 50-member board election to a multi-million-share proxy vote. Configure the ballot, pick the channels, ship the campaign.

01

Proxy votes

Annual meeting proxies, special-meeting resolutions, contested votes. Weighted-share tallies, channel-attributed.

02

Board & member elections

Board seats, committee chairs, slate elections for credit unions, co-ops, membership orgs. Ranked-choice supported.

03

Referendums & resolutions

Yes/no, multi-option, supermajority thresholds. Audit posture sized for whatever the bylaws require.

04

Opinion surveys

Net-promoter, member satisfaction, policy preference. Same multi-channel ballot, lighter audit posture.

05

Quick polls

Single-question text-back polls for member sentiment between formal votes. Stand up in hours.

06

Custom workflows

Two-round runoffs, weighted electorates, multi-stage approvals. We build the workflow against the platform.
