ElectIQ
ElectIQ is an online voting platform for organizations running elections. Organizers can select an election modality and security level, add candidates and design ballots, then send invitations, notices and reminders by email or SMS. The platform can tally votes automatically, publish results and provide live monitoring during voting. ElectIQ describes cryptographic protocols that keep voters anonymous while allowing verification, an append-only audit ledger for independent checking, and repeat voting as protection against coercion. Templates cover common election types: the Free plan has basic templates and Pro has advanced ones. Free supports up to 30 voters; Pro adds custom branding and priority support. Enterprise lists voter certificates, SAML/SSO integration, dedicated legal support, SLA guarantees and on-premise deployment. Assisted setup and fully managed service are also offered. ElectIQ identifies school boards, private associations, professional associations and sports clubs as use cases. It is available on web, Android and iOS. The project is by Mannes Technology, which describes itself as a software company with more than 25 years of experience. Free costs nothing; Pro costs €1, paid once.
