Load each campaign once
An organizer picks the campaign type, then adds the profile, the door script and the approved answers to the questions voters actually ask. KnockReps treats them as the source of truth for every conversation and every grade.
- Candidates, measures, petitions, bills
- Door script with branches
- Approved answers
Build the doors your team will face
Organizers write each mock voter's private backstory: what they've heard, what they worry about, and where they start on the 1 to 5 ID scale, from strong support to strong against. Mix easy supporters with hostile doors so trainees practice the full range.
Trainees knock, the voter pushes back
Trainees see only what a walk list shows: name, age and support ID. Everything else they learn by talking, in text, with time to think. The voter's support moves only for good reasons: listening, accurate answers and a clear ask. Pushy pitches and invented promises move them the other way, and a voter can close the door.
- Hints point to the approved answer
- Backstories stay hidden, like a real door
- Live voice mode on the roadmap
Every conversation gets a scorecard
Grading follows your rubric, category by category, and shows how the voter's support moved over the conversation. Coaching quotes the trainee's own words and gives a better line to try next time.
Off-message claims get caught in practice
If a trainee promises a tax cut the candidate never made, or tells a voter that signing a petition makes it law, the scorecard flags the exact line next to what the materials say. That happens in practice, before a voter hears it on a porch.
Assign practice before the shift
Trainers assign a number of practice doors to everyone or to a group, with a minimum score and a due date. Each trainee's progress shows at a glance, so nobody walks turf without the reps.
- Whole team or one group
- Pick difficulty and a passing score
- Due dates and overdue flags
See who's ready for the field
Field directors see every trainee's average, latest score and weakest skill across all of their campaigns, plus how many practice voters moved toward support and how many committed: voting plans, signatures or calls.
Built for every kind of door
Field programs don't stop after November. Each campaign type changes what the mock voter cares about, what counts as a win at the door, and what the grader checks.
Candidate races
Persuasion, the 1 to 5 ID and a concrete plan to vote.
Win: a voting planBallot measures
Explain what a yes vote does and lock in a plan to vote.
Win: a voting planPetition drives
Eligibility first: registration, no duplicates, no signing for a spouse, honest answers on privacy.
Win: a valid signatureLegislation
Connect a bill to the household, then get a postcard to the legislator and a call before the hearing.
Win: a postcard and a callSignatures that actually count
In this practice drive, a new resident isn't registered at her current address. The trainee registers her first, explains the amendment accurately while she fills out the form, and collects a valid signature.
From the doorstep to the hearing room
For a state bill, the grader checks whether the trainee made it local, stayed accurate about what the bill does and doesn't cover, and got both asks: a signed postcard and a call before the committee hearing.
Why firms use it
Ready on day one
New canvassers run their first tough doors in practice, not on your turf.
On message, every door
Grading checks every claim against your approved answers, so drift shows up before the field does.
Useful all year
Run candidate races, ballot measures, petitions and issue campaigns side by side, each with its own script, voters and rubric.
Coaching that scales
One field director can review a whole cohort from the team view instead of shadowing every shift.
