Access & Pricing

Paid-only. Private access. For campaigns, consultants, PACs, issue groups, and public affairs teams.

📅 What "monitoring period" means for CampaignBrief pricing

CampaignBrief pricing is based on a defined Active Campaign Monitoring Period — a fixed number of months ending on or before your election date — not the full legal or FEC definition of an "election cycle," which can span 2 to 6 years depending on office.

Local Race Up to 6 months · single election event
State / Regional Up to 9 months · single election event
Congressional Up to 12 months · single election event
Post-election wind-down 30 days included · then new engagement

Races with both a primary and a general election require an expanded monitoring period. Contact us for primary+general pricing. Extensions beyond the included period are available at a monthly rate.

What CampaignBrief does and does not do. CampaignBrief provides public-source monitoring, evidence organization, and analytic summaries for campaign operations awareness. It does not create campaign communications, target voters, impersonate individuals, generate synthetic media, determine legal compliance, or replace legal review. All narrative analysis is based on publicly available sources; users are responsible for verifying information before acting on it.
