The Company Behind the Companies That Know Who Is Listening
The TARA Group hides its most interesting product in plain sight: a federation of specialist firms that share the boring machinery and keep the sharp edges. The result is a political and public-affairs shop built to follow an audience from database to doorstep.
Aristotle
Aristotle is a Washington, D.C.-based political technology company that has built the data, compliance, and fundraising software powering U.S. political campaigns since 1983. Founded by brothers John and Dean Phillips, it serves PACs, advocacy groups, and federal campaigns - and, famously, every U.S. president since Reagan.
John Aristotle Phillips
John Aristotle Phillips is the co-founder and CEO of Aristotle, the Washington DC-based political technology firm he built with his brother Dean since 1983. Known worldwide as 'The A-Bomb Kid' after his Princeton term paper on nuclear weapon design made headlines in 1977, Phillips parlayed celebrity into activism, lost two congressional races, then quietly built a data empire that has served virtually every U.S. president from Reagan onward. Today Aristotle powers campaign compliance, voter data, PAC management, and identity verification for campaigns across the globe, while Phillips co-founded PredictIt, the world's largest political prediction market, partnering with Victoria University of Wellington to bring real-money political forecasting to the mainstream.
