The consulting practice

Strategy, intelligence,
and training.

Software alone doesn't win races. Athenalytix pairs the Minerva platform with a working consulting practice, built for campaigns and advocacy operations that need to compete above their weight.

Three pillars

What an engagement looks like.

Every engagement is scoped to your operation. Most combine elements of all three pillars; some are a single sprint. All of them leave you stronger than they found you.

01 · INTELLIGENCE

Political Intelligence & Data

We collect, organize, and interpret the information your decisions depend on: district analysis, turnout history, competitive posture, funding-landscape mapping. You get findings you can act on, not a data dump.

  • District and precinct competitive analysis, multi-cycle
  • Universe design: who to talk to, and in what order
  • Funding-landscape and donor-network research
  • Opposition research grounded in the public record
02 · STRATEGY

Strategic Planning

We work with you to design focused, achievable strategies that align your mission, message, and momentum. The result is a campaign plan you'll run, sized to your volunteers, your budget, and your timeline to election day.

  • Win-number math and vote-goal modeling
  • Field plan: turf, phases, volunteer targets
  • Budget and resource allocation against the calendar
  • GOTV architecture for the final two weeks
03 · CAPACITY

Capacity Building & Training

We build your team's capacity with infrastructure, training, and guidance tailored to your operation. Your people learn to run the data, the field program, and the compliance work themselves, so the capability stays when the engagement ends.

  • Minerva onboarding for managers, field leads, and treasurers
  • Canvass and phone-bank program training
  • Treasurer and compliance workflow setup
  • Data hygiene practices that survive the cycle

Why it works

Consulting with a platform underneath.

Most consultants hand you a memo and leave. Most software vendors hand you a login and disappear. We built Athenalytix on the conviction that the two belong together: advice grounded in live data, and software you've been trained to run.

Every consulting engagement can draw on Minerva's substrate (the voter file, precinct history, the funding landscape), and every Minerva subscription comes from people who have done the work, not just shipped the feature.

Engagement shapes

Pick your shape.

Sprint

District Deep-Dive

A focused analysis of one race: competitive history, universe design, win-number math, and a field-plan skeleton. The fastest way to learn whether a race is winnable, and how.

Season

Campaign Partnership

Ongoing strategic counsel through the cycle: monthly plan reviews, data check-ins, GOTV architecture, and a direct line when the race shifts under you.

Program

Organizational Buildout

For parties, PACs, and advocacy orgs: infrastructure design, Minerva provisioning across your slate or chapters, and training programs that turn staff into operators.
