The democracy engine On the drawing board
Your voice counts.

Imagine a world where you are no longer a pawn in someone else's game. Where the decisions that shape your life are no longer made behind closed doors by people who have never asked you what you truly need.

The system is being built to guarantee verified identities and open output data. No hidden agendas. With simple adaptation, the same tool works as direct input to a resource-oriented societal system, as described in The Social Contract (available in Swedish).

The platform is, for now, an idea on the drawing board. What exists is this site and the thinking behind it.
