Launch your campaign.
Start raising money, and stay compliant, from day one. Launchpad is the early-stage on-ramp to Crimson, built for brand-new campaigns.
Built for the first days.
Launchpad meets a campaign where it starts: small team, big to-do list, and a filing calendar that does not wait.
First-time candidates
Running for the first time and standing up an operation from scratch, without a finance shop yet.
State & local races
State legislative and local campaigns that need real fundraising and compliance without enterprise overhead.
Lean teams
Campaigns where the candidate, a manager, and a treasurer are wearing every hat at once.
The essentials, done right.
Everything a new campaign needs to raise money and stay compliant, and nothing it does not.
Fundraising channels
Online donations, events, and pledges tracked from the first dollar.
Events
Invitations, RSVPs, and payments in one place.
Donor & voter records
A clean, searchable file of everyone you are talking to.
FEC compliance
CrimsonFiler-ready reporting so deadlines never sneak up on you.
Works anywhere
Runs in the browser on any device. No app, no separate login.
Clean audit trail
Every gift and disbursement recorded and reportable.
Start on Launchpad. Grow into Crimson.
Launchpad is the same platform, sized for day one. As the campaign scales, more staff, more donors, a full compliance operation, everything moves up into full Crimson without a migration, an export, or a fresh start.
No re-platforming. No lost history. Just more Crimson as you grow.
A better way to start.
See how a potential statewide campaign used Launchpad to start centralized months before announcing, and came out of the gate on kick-off day with no data to untangle.
By kick-off day, every list was consolidated, pledges were logged, and the team had exact donation totals within a day, without a spreadsheet to convert.
