Teqo

Teqo starts as the official digital platform for deputado Jorge Solla and evolves into a white-label civic engagement platform for politicians in Brazil.

The goal is to help political teams build direct, durable relationships with their base without depending on Big Tech social platforms as the primary channel.

Mission

• Strengthen direct communication between representatives and citizens.
• Reduce platform dependency risk by owning audience and data channels.
• Provide reusable building blocks so each political team can launch quickly.

Product Direction

Phase 1: Jorge Solla Website

Initial delivery focuses on Jorge Solla's public website and communication workflows:

• Public-facing content and updates
• Institutional pages and biography
• Media and campaign communication assets
• Editorial operations through Payload CMS

Phase 2: White-Label Platform

Teqo then becomes a configurable base product for other politicians in Brazil:

• Multi-tenant and reusable architecture
• Brand and content customization per mandate/campaign
• Shared core modules for communication and engagement
• Operational autonomy with self-hosted owned channels

Roadmap Notes

• Prioritize audience ownership and portability of data.
• Keep modules generic enough for reuse across different political contexts.
• Default to secure, access-controlled features for campaign and institutional teams.
