Redbud builds things
The best research doesn't end with a deck. Most consultancies leave you with a blueprint, but they rarely help you build. Redbud turns your data into real actionable products that help your team get the job done.
PRODUCT
Poll Vault
AI agents monitor hundreds of sources every day for public polling on elections and policy. Claude-powered analysis extracts the findings, sample, and methodology; a human editor reviews every summary before it ships. Launched April 2026, Poll Vault now tracks thousands of polls from 800+ pollsters across ten topics.

ELECTION TRACKER
Data Centers on the Ballot
On November 3, 2026, voters decided 46 local measures on data centers — bans, megawatt caps, rezonings, developer deals, and advisory questions, each worded its own way. Redbud mapped every YES and NO to the same two sides, Restrict or Allow, so the results actually add up, then pulled county counts every few minutes as they came in. By the morning after, Restrict had won 34 of the first 35 measures to finish counting.

AD VISUALIZATION FOR TUNNL
Heavy Rotation
What does a swing voter actually sit through in the last week of a midterm? For Tunnl, Redbud built Heavy Rotation, which replays every ad in Ohio’s special Senate race that aired on Columbus TV on October 30, 2026 — 1,893 of them, one every 46 seconds — compressed into as little as 45 seconds, sound and all. AdImpact airings paired with Tunnl’s swing voter audience put a number on the barrage: nearly 9 million impressions in one day.
