Yes. The Tars voter registration bot is configured on a per-jurisdiction basis, meaning each state or county deploys an agent customized to its specific eligibility criteria, accepted documents, deadlines, and registration methods (online, by mail, or in person). The conversational flow reflects your jurisdiction's rules exactly, so citizens always receive accurate guidance whether they are in a state with same-day registration or one that requires registration 30 days before an election.

Tars AI agents are web-based conversational interfaces that work on standard desktop and mobile browsers. The conversational format is inherently more accessible than multi-page PDF forms, as it presents one question at a time in plain language. For election offices subject to ADA and Section 508 requirements, the bot provides an additional accessible channel for voter registration information alongside existing phone and in-person options.

Tars is SOC 2 Type 2 certified with ISO 27001 compliance, and all data is encrypted in transit and at rest. The voter registration agent does not store sensitive PII like Social Security numbers. Instead, it guides citizens to your official state registration portal to complete the actual submission. This means your office gets the benefit of automated guidance without taking on additional data custody responsibilities for sensitive voter information.

Tars integrates with government technology platforms through Zapier, direct API connections, and webhooks. If your office uses a voter registration management system from a provider like Tyler Technologies or a custom state system, interaction data from the bot can be pushed to your existing tools. For simpler setups, data can be exported to Google Sheets or sent via email notifications to your registration processing team.

The agent is configured with clear escalation paths. When a citizen's question falls outside the bot's scope, such as a complex eligibility dispute or a question about a specific ballot measure, the agent provides the phone number, email, or office location for the appropriate election office staff. It can also collect the citizen's contact information so a staffer can follow up directly, ensuring no inquiry goes unresolved.

Most election offices can have a fully configured voter registration agent live within days, not months. The conversational flow is structured around the standard registration intake questions that every jurisdiction handles: eligibility, documentation, deadlines, and polling locations. Your team customizes the specific answers to match your state's rules, connects any integrations, and deploys on your website. This is particularly relevant for offices preparing for upcoming election cycles on tight timelines.

The Tars platform is built to handle large concurrent conversation volumes without degradation. Unlike a phone system where 20 simultaneous callers means 15 people on hold, the AI agent serves thousands of citizens at the same time with the same response quality. For election offices that see 10x traffic spikes in the final week before a registration deadline, this elasticity is critical to ensuring every citizen gets the information they need to register on time.

Yes. Tars supports multilingual conversational flows, which is essential for jurisdictions covered under Section 203 of the Voting Rights Act that are required to provide election materials in minority languages. The agent can be deployed in Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, Tagalog, and other languages based on your jurisdiction's requirements. Each language version maintains the same eligibility logic and registration guidance as the English version.
