How Progressive Campaigns Cut Research Time from Months to Minutes with AI
User Profile:
Industry: Political Strategy & Campaign Consulting
Team: Strategic analysts and campaign advisors
Challenge: Understanding voter segmentation and messaging effectiveness across diverse political coalitions
The Situation
A political research team needed to decode why Mamdani’s 2024 NY State Senate victory worked—and whether his “affordability-first” strategy could scale nationally. Traditional voter research would take months of focus groups, surveys, and analysis. But campaigns move fast, and they needed answers now.
The Pain Points
Traditional political research meant:
6-8 weeks coordinating focus groups across voter segments
$15,000-$25,000 for professional voter interviews
Limited sample sizes missing nuanced perspectives
Static reports that couldn’t explore emerging questions
The Atypica Solution
Using Atypica.AI’s AI Research feature, the team:
Auto-generated 10 voter personas spanning progressive activists to Trump-aligned conservatives
Conducted in-depth AI interviews exploring authentic reactions to messaging strategies
Received a comprehensive 30-page analysis in under 20 minutes
The research uncovered critical insights like Sofia Cardoso’s (Affordability Coalition persona) response: “My key question isn’t about left vs. right, but ‘Does it fix the crowded trains? Does it make childcare cheaper?’”—revealing the power of tangible economic messaging over ideological debates.
Impact Achieved
