About

VoiceOfUS

Features
Read full description

VoiceOfUS helps citizens organize civic concerns into clear, reviewable case summaries and editable civic correspondence. Type or record your concern, use AI-assisted redrafting and readback, review representative context where provider data is available, and export professional PDF, DOCX, JSON, or ZIP packages for your own use. VoiceOfUS is patriotic, nonpartisan, privacy-first, and export-first. You stay in control. The app does not send messages automatically, does not run campaigns, does not support robocalls or SMS blasts, and does not claim government affiliation. Phase 1 includes typed intake, optional voice intake, AI redraft, AI readback, local multi-case workflow, representative review, recommended representative guidance, editable letter fields, print-ready exports, Apple In-App Purchase access choices, voluntary free civic access requests, and a Trust tab that explains privacy, AI, source boundaries, and no-send posture. Representative lookup uses official-source data where available. Federal and state representatives may be shown when provider data resolves the address. Local officeholder information may be marked pending when provider data is unavailable. VoiceOfUS does not claim complete local-office coverage. Voice responses are AI-generated and not a human representative. Voice features are optional, user-initiated, and backend-proxied. Nothing is sent to a representative from inside the app. VoiceOfUS offers auto-renewing subscriptions: Monthly at $4.99/month and Annual at $49.99/year, each with a 7-day free trial for eligible new subscribers. Subscriptions provide access to civic case creation, AI redraft/readback, representative review, recommended representative selection, and PDF/DOCX/JSON/ZIP export. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in Apple Account settings. Privacy Policy: https://voiceofus.net/privacy. Terms of Use: https://voiceofus.net/terms. One-case access is a $5 one-time in-app purchase for one local case.
