Hey Product Hunt šŸ‘‹ I’m Zahoor, one of the founders of Votap.

...Like most startups, Votap started pretty scrappy. A lot of late nights, second-guessing, building things that break, fixing them, and slowly figuring out what actually matters to users. This isn t a polished big company launch. It s very much a real product built by a small team trying to learn fast and build something useful.

We built Votap because politics affects almost every part of our lives: cost of living, housing, work, safety, opportunity. Yet for most of us, our actual influence feels close to zero outside of elections every few years. That disconnect never sat right with us.

Votap is our attempt to close that gap. It s a simple way to express how you feel about politicians in real time and see how public sentiment shifts live through charts. No waiting years between elections. Just ongoing feedback.

Launching on Product Hunt matters a lot to us because early adopters here don t just click and disappear. You ask tough questions. You spot flaws. You suggest features we didn t think of. That feedback is genuinely how early products get better, and we re here to learn.
