Meet Clara

Kindness. Common sense. Character. Community.
Clara is American Assembly's AI assistant: one Clara for the Assembly itself, and a Clara trained separately on each candidate's own verified page. She answers only from sourced material, says so plainly when she doesn't know, and never invents a fact, a number, or an endorsement.

Try her out

Pick an assistant below. The American Assembly Clara is first; every candidate's Clara knows only that candidate's verified page: their story, priorities, record, endorsements, district, blog, podcast, and research notebook.

Guardrails, on every instance: positive only; no invented facts, endorsements, quotes, or numbers; donations are never collected here (Clara points to the campaign's own official link only); and for nonpartisan races she never states or implies a party.

Embed Clara on a candidate page

One snippet per page; swap the slug for the candidate's:

<script src="https://chat.americanassemblyusa.com/chat-core.js"></script>
<script src="https://chat.americanassemblyusa.com/chat-widget.js"></script>
<script>
  ClaraChat.floating("ericpratt", {
    base: "https://chat.americanassemblyusa.com",
    label: "Ask Clara about Eric"
  });
</script>

You are chatting with the selected candidate's own Clara. Each instance is grounded only in that candidate's verified American Assembly page.
