The Most Effective Way to Tell Politicians What You Think.

Franky is the most effective way to tell politicians what you think.  Our app solves all the problems associated with the traditional means of sharing your opinion with a politician.

Frankly combines direct delivery with public visibility, creating real pressure for action.

Frankly is like texting, social media and a billboard had a baby: one that Congress can't ignore.

In seconds, you type what's on your mind.  Frankly’s technology delivers it to politicians, and the whole country sees it in Frankly’s social feed.

When it's public, it's pressure.  And, everybody bends under pressure. 

Phone calls?  Nobody is picking up.

Traditional emails?  Buried under more emails.

Posting to their socials?  They think you’re a bot.

Most people assume there are only one or two ways to reach an elected official. There are several well-worn channels and challenges.

1. Email or online contact forms

This is the most common method. Nearly every elected official has a website with a contact form or public email address.  Navigating the contact forms is time-consuming.  The cumbersome process must be repeated for each time a person wants to share their opinion.  Messages are logged by staff, categorized by issue, and often tallied to track constituent sentiment. As emails are private, they are limited in their ability to pressure politicians to act.

2. Phone calls to district or Capitol offices

Calling an office requires more effort.  Many politicians no longer answer direct phone calls and place all callers into a voicemail system.  Busy signals are the norm.  If the phone is answered, hopefully staffers record the caller’s position and zip code, and those call logs are frequently referenced in internal briefings. As calls are private, they are limited in their ability to pressure politicians to act.

3. Letters sent by mail

Traditional mail is less common today.  Physical letters take longer to process, upwards of two months at times to arrive at a politician’s office due to security screening.  As letters are private, they are limited in their ability to pressure politicians to act.

4. In-person meetings and town halls

Town halls, district office meetings, and community events offer direct access. These interactions are limited in scale, but they are memorable. A concise, respectful question or personal story can shape how an official thinks about an issue long after the event ends.  However, public events are infrequent and inconvenient. 

5. Public comments on social media

Commenting on posts or tagging officials on platforms like X, Facebook, or Instagram adds a public dimension but most politicians assume you are a bot. While individual comments can be ignored, visible patterns, especially when posts gain traction, create social pressure and influence how issues are framed publicly.

Frankly takes the best part of each of these methods and improves upon them.
