Features
What ships today, organized by what you'd configure first. Roadmap items are listed at the bottom — we don't hide them.
Voting methods
Twelve methods today. Each tally is computed server-side and can be re-walked from the public verification chain.
Single choice
One pick per ballot. Simplest tally, hardest to argue with.
Multiple choice
Pick up to N. Server enforces the cap.
Approval
Approve any number. Highest approval count wins.
Ranked-choice (IRV)
Voters rank options. Eliminate lowest, redistribute, repeat. Single-winner.
Multi-winner STV
Droop-quota single transferable vote. Surplus is fractionally transferred. For boards / multi-seat elections.
Borda count
Each rank earns (n-1, n-2, ..., 0) points. Highest sum wins. Classic preference aggregation.
Schulze (beatpath)
Condorcet-consistent. Picks the candidate with the strongest beatpath against every other.
Condorcet (Copeland)
Highest pairwise-wins-minus-losses. Returns the Condorcet winner when one exists.
Score / range
Voters score every option in a 0..N range. Highest sum wins.
Cumulative
Voters distribute a fixed point budget across options. Allows expressing intensity.
Star rating
1–5 stars per option. Average score wins. Great for fan choice.
Yes / no measure
Binary vote on a proposition. Bylaws-friendly with a public chain.
Voter authentication
Identity, exactly as strict as you need. Each layer is independent — combine the ones your election demands.
Email magic-link
Voter clicks link from email; no password.
SMS OTP
6-digit code via Twilio; 10-minute expiry. Passes through Twilio cost.
CAPTCHA
Cloudflare Turnstile (default), reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha. Provider-agnostic.
Geofencing
Allow / block by ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code. Server enforces at vote-cast time.
Logged-in Aclamos account
For org-internal polls — restrict to your team.
Voter list (CSV import)
Upload list once; one-time tokens issued per voter.
Anti-fraud guardrails
Each option below is enforced server-side at vote-cast time. Toggle them per ballot, or pick one of the four presets.
ML fraud signals
Velocity bursts, coordinated patterns, repeat-offender across ballots. Reviewable; nothing auto-deleted.
Vote caps
Max votes per email / phone / IP / device. Sliding window.
Headless-browser detect
Catches Puppeteer, Playwright, Selenium and similar.
Honeypot fields
Invisible decoy fields trip automated submissions.
Min time-on-page
Reject submissions faster than humanly possible.
Disposable-email block
30,000+ throwaway domains. Custom allow-list per ballot.
TOR / VPN block
Detect anonymizing networks; block or quarantine.
Repeat-offender ML
Cross-ballot reputation across all of Ballotis.
End-to-end verifiable
Optional verifiable mode: every vote is hash-chained to the previous one, so any tampering breaks the chain.
Per-voter receipts
Each voter gets a `lmnry_receipt_*` token; verify their vote was counted without revealing how they voted.
Public verification log
Anyone can re-walk the chain on /verify/{pollId}. No login. No NDA.
Hash chain
chainHash = sha256(prevChainHash || canonicalVote). Reordering or removing any vote breaks the chain.
Branding & embed
Make the ballot look like yours. White-label voter UI is available on Studio and up.
Custom domain
vote.yourdomain.com on Growth and up. Auto-issued TLS.
Brand color + logo
Per ballot. Inherits from your org default.
Embed widget
Drop-in iframe that lives on your page; auto-resizing.
Live tally widget
Embeddable leaderboard; real-time updates.
Integrations
Webhooks + REST API are first-class. The rest is on the roadmap; build what you need today over the API.
Webhooks
Outbound HTTPS POST on vote.cast, ballot.opened, ballot.closed, anomaly.flagged. HMAC-signed.
REST API
Full CRUD over polls, voters, results. Bearer-token auth (`lmnry_live_*` / `lmnry_test_*`). OpenAPI 3.1 spec at /api/v1/openapi.json.
Zapier
Trigger flows in your downstream apps via the REST API endpoints.
Anti-fraud presets
Pick the preset; every guard above configures itself. Override any individual toggle in the dashboard.
Casual poll
1 per email · CAPTCHA · low friction. Good for opinion polls and quick fan votes.
Public award
Email-verified · 1 per IP · CAPTCHA · disposable-email block. Strongest balance for awards programs.
High-integrity election
Email + phone OTP verified · 1 per phone · TOR/VPN blocked · verification log. For boards, associations, formal elections.
Unlimited fan vote
No identity required · CAPTCHA + rate-limited · vote as many times as you like, but bots are blocked. Classic 'fan favorite' style.
