AI services
AI built on your record.
Every organization keeps a ledger of how it really works: the tasks it repeats, the judgment calls, the niche knowledge no template captures. We map it first, then build the agents, pipelines, and training that fit.
01 Akashic
A reference atlas for American elections.
Akashic puts election results where they happened, beside the places and people behind them. It is public, sourced, and built to the standard of a reference work.
Place pages
A page for every place.
States, counties, congressional districts, and metros, each with its election history, its shifts, and its comparisons in one view. Open to everyone.
Create a Place
Draw any boundary.
Outline a neighborhood, a media market, or a set of precincts, and Akashic rebuilds its results from census-block data for elections with precinct-level returns.
Custom builds
Built to your specification.
Custom place sets, datasets, and embeds for your organization, publication, or product.
Place agents Coming soon
An agent for every place you follow.
Custom AI agents grounded in a place's full record, answering questions about it in plain language.
02 Services
Custom AI, starting with how you work.
Most AI projects start with a tool. Ours start with onboarding: a detailed map of your niche and the workflows your team repeats. Then we build what that map calls for.
Onboarding & workflow discovery
We learn your niche, document the work you repeat, and rank what is worth automating.
Custom AI agents
Agents that take on defined, repeated work, built to your process and your data.
Data pipelines & dashboards
Your data collected, cleaned, and kept current, with dashboards built around the decisions you make.
Team AI training
Practical training built on your own workflows, so your team keeps the gains.
03 Who we work with
Built for organizations that run on specifics.
Campaigns and political organizations
Research, targeting support, and reporting grounded in the electoral record.
Healthcare organizations and hospitals
Reporting, planning, and administrative workflows made faster and easier to review.
Small and mid-size businesses
The repeated work that eats the week, handled by systems built for your business.
Nonprofits and government
Grant, program, and public reporting done in fewer hours, with clearer sources.
04 Principles
How we work.
Accuracy you can trace.
Every figure carries its year and its source. If we can't source it, we don't publish it.
Method in the open.
We show how a result was produced, so you can check it, question it, and build on it.
Say what's plain.
Thinking differently often means looking straight at the data and saying what it plainly shows, when no one else will.
Akashic Intelligence is nonpartisan. We work with anyone who shares these values.
05 The name
Named for a record of everything.
Edgar Cayce, the twentieth-century American clairvoyant, described the Akashic Records as a complete ledger of everything that has happened: every event, every word, every choice. He also spoke of a hall of records buried near the Sphinx at Giza.
We make no claim to either. We build the closest thing the evidence allows: records that are complete where the sources are complete, honest where they are not, and readable by anyone who needs them.
06 Founder
The researcher is also the builder.
Kenton Tilford spent years in campaign field work, from field organizer to regional field director, across West Virginia, Louisiana, New Jersey, New York, and Iowa, including Run the Rock. He knows how voters in very different places decide because he has talked with them. He then taught himself data engineering and built Akashic. The person who scopes your project is the person who builds it.
