TapVoter

TapVoter was born out of frustration.

While serving on the board of JCI Mandaue chapter (a local organization of Junior Chamber International Philippines, formerly known as The Jaycees), I found myself tasked with managing our elections. What should have been a simple process turned into an unnecessarily complicated one: printing paper ballots, distributing them to members, collecting them back, manually counting votes, and double-checking for accuracy.

I searched for a digital solution—something simple, secure, and ideally free for non-profits like ours. What I found were either:

• Enterprise systems with price tags our organization couldn't justify

• So-called "free" tools that required payment to actually start an election

• Solutions so complex they required technical expertise we didn't have

So I built TapVoter—the tool I wished existed.
