No. While we’re based in Houston, Texas, we work with candidates nationwide, from congressional races to local school board elections. Our strategies are effective for any campaign where accurate online presence is critical.

Can you remove false information from the internet?

The safe answer is that in most cases, you can’t entirely remove false information once it’s published. However, in the new AI age, it is very easy for AI to get confused. By redirecting the AI to the right information, it often changes what is output. In addition to more traditional issues, we out-rank and displace harmful content with accurate, optimized material so the truth appears first in search results and AI answers.
