Developer Advocate

About Vocdoni

Vocdoni is an open-source project that develops the best open-source governance software based on decentralized technologies and cryptographic mechanisms such as SNARKs. Providing an alternative to the still common used centralized and private digital voting systems.

With this objective, we have developed Vocdoni Protocol, the first scalable, universally verifiable, highly flexible and censorship-resistant voting protocol. This Protocol has been used by hundreds of organizations like city councils, companies and associations, including some relevant ones like Football Club Barcelona or Aragon Network DAO.

We have also developed other end-consumer products such as Vocdoni APP, a web voting platform that allows to create simple votes, and the Vocdoni API, a point of access to our voting protocol that includes an easy-to-use SDK.
