Project Midlands

Built for the underdog.

We use AI strategy to help real campaigns and communities fight smarter, win faster, and be heard.

Why I Built This

I remember calling officials during the BBB negotiation, begging them to vote no. It wasn't for myself—I knew I was going to be personally impacted by the SAVE Plan, but I didn't care. As a Black gay man, I’ve spent my life surviving systems that were never designed for me.

But this was for a six-year-old boy I helped raise... a superhero who loved Sonic and Tails and would make me get him chicken nuggets from McDonald's. He was going to be impacted worse because he was on Medicaid and would lose his coverage.

They wouldn't even know his name, but I did. And when I sat there and watched them vote for that bill, it showed me how they put greed over humanity. That child was innocent. And that broke me.

I’ve seen the forgotten man who lost his veteran benefits. I’ve seen the woman forced to ration her insulin to buy groceries. I’ve been the one saying, “This isn’t about politics. This is about people.”

I remembered Vice President Harris saying, "Don't complain about injustice. Do something about it." So I did.

I created Project Midlands to make sure those stories aren't just heard, but felt.

This isn't a consulting firm. It's a call to action for anyone who's ever been told to wait their damn turn.

Built on Trust. Driven by Ethics.

Project Midlands was built on transparency, not hype. Every tool and tactic is rooted in ethical AI strategy, not manipulation.

We match voices, not overwrite them. We amplify underdog campaigns, not profit from them. All insights and strategies use independent, center-bias sources (MIT, Pew, Gallup) only—never partisan data.

This platform is also in its pilot phase. Everything is opt-in, community-centered, and under active review. We are selective by design: you won’t find cookie-cutter solutions here—only tools shaped by the communities they serve.

Our Boundaries are Clear:

Access is by invitation or referral only.
We do not resell our tools.
IP ownership is protected.
When you engage with Project Midlands, you're not just getting AI—you’re getting alignment, ethics, and purpose.

Let’s Build Bold Together.

Project Midlands is currently in a limited pilot phase. We’re working with a select group of movement builders, campaigns, and community leaders who are ready to embrace ethical AI strategy.

If you believe your work aligns with our mission—and you're ready to build bold, people-centered solutions—we’d love to hear from you.

We review each inquiry personally, but due to limited bandwidth, we prioritize requests that align with our current goals, regions, and capacity.

This isn’t a contact form for just anyone. It’s for those who want to do this work differently—and do it right.

The HOPE Toolkit™: AI Strategy Built for Underdogs

The HOPE Toolkit™ is the heart of Project Midlands. It's not just a product—it's a lifeline for the overlooked, the underfunded, and the unheard. Built for campaigns and communities that can't afford to be ignored, the toolkit fuses grassroots power with ethical AI to deliver real-world digital strategy in a plug-and-play format.

Everything here is beta-access only, protected by ethical use guidelines and customized to match your movement's voice—not overwrite it. Here’s a look at what you'll find inside:

Plug-and-play prompts built for today's AI, including ChatGPT, Gemini, and Copilot.

Step-by-step breakdowns for first-time users.

Voice-matching strategies to keep every message authentic.

Mini-guides for rapid response, donation drives, and email outreach.

Beta Access Reminder: These prompts are part of the HOPE Toolkit™ and are available by invite-only while in beta. Misuse or unauthorized duplication is strictly prohibited.

Your Voice. Our Answers.

Curious how the HOPE Toolkit can amplify your message, cut through the noise, and ensure your story lands where it needs to? We've gathered clear, honest answers to the most important questions, built for real people, not tech experts.

“Isn’t AI going to replace people?”

“Honestly, I used to be scared of AI too. Not because I didn’t see the value—but because I thought it might replace me. What if I trained it too well? What if I made myself…irrelevant?

But what I’ve learned is: the real danger isn’t AI replacing people—it’s people getting replaced by folks who know how to use AI.

That’s why Project Midlands isn’t about automation. It’s about amplification. These tools don’t erase your voice—they match it. They don’t override your vision—they supercharge it.

We’re not handing the mic to AI. We’re turning the volume up for the people who’ve been shouting into silence.”

“How hard is this to use? I’m not tech-savvy.”

“You don’t need to be a tech expert. You just need your voice.

I built this for people who never thought AI was ‘for them.’ This toolkit was designed so that if you can type a sentence, you can move mountains.

Everything’s plug-and-play, no coding, no fluff. I even tested this with people who said, ‘I don’t even know how to use Google Docs right.’ And guess what? They got it.

It’s not about the tool—it’s about what you’ve been trying to say all along. This just clears the fog.”

“What makes this different from other AI tools?”

This wasn’t made for clicks it was made for clarity. Most AI tools are built for people who already have power. This was built for people who’ve had to fight just to be heard.

It’s not about throwing jargon at your face or giving you cookie-cutter templates—it’s about amplifying what’s already in you.

The HOPE Toolkit matches your voice. It listens before it speaks. And it’s built to be ethical, bias-aware, and human-led.

This isn’t Silicon Valley AI. This is Southern-grown, people-powered, grassroots-first strategy. That’s the difference.

How do I use the HOPE Toolkit if I’m not running for office?”

You don’t have to be a candidate to use your voice.

The HOPE Toolkit was built for organizers, pastors, teachers, local leaders, volunteers, advocates—anyone who needs their message heard.

If you’ve ever been told you’re ‘too much,’ or ‘not polished enough,’ or ‘don’t have the right words’—this Toolkit helps you change that narrative.

You can use it for storytelling, outreach, policy pressure, call-in campaigns, or just to speak your truth.

Your voice matters. This Toolkit makes sure it lands where it needs to.”

Is this just another generic AI tool that spits out junk?”

No hype. No spin. Just a real tool that’s helping real people be heard.

The HOPE Toolkit doesn’t give you empty fluff or vague responses. It’s been field-tested with underdog campaigns, movement organizers, and real people tired of being ignored.

Every part of it was designed to match your voice, respect your story, and give you power—not just content. It’s plug-and-play, emotionally intelligent, and strategic.

Most tools guess what you need. This one asks first. That’s the difference.

“Will using this make people think I’m not writing my own stuff?”

“Think of this like a microphone not a ghostwriter.”

The HOPE Toolkit studies your tone, your words, your rhythm so the message still sounds like you.

Whether you’re writing an email, speech, or social media post, the prompts help you organize your thoughts, elevate your message, and keep your authenticity.

It’s still your story just sharper. Just stronger. Just more strategic. No one will say “AI wrote that.” They’ll say: “That hit.”

“Is this safe to use if I don’t know anything about AI?”

Yes. That’s exactly who it’s built for.

You don’t need to be a techie or strategist. You just need a voice and a mission.

Every prompt is plug-and-play. You get plain-language instructions, pre-written examples, and smart recommendations that guide you step by step.

This AI doesn’t replace you it learns from you. You stay in control the entire time, and the toolkit never assumes you have all the answers.

In fact, we’ve had first-time users go from “I’m scared of AI” to “I finally feel heard” in less than 20 minutes.

This Is Just the Beginning

Project Midlands is more than a toolkit—it’s a movement. Built from lived experience, tested in real campaigns, and powered by voice-matching AI, this platform gives underrepresented leaders the firepower they deserve.

We’re in beta right now—by choice. That means every campaign we support, every partner we onboard, is part of building something bigger. We’re not here to replace human voices. We’re here to amplify them.

So if you’re tired of being ignored, talked over, or left behind—this toolkit was built for you.

When your voice has been silenced, the most powerful thing you can do is speak louder—with tools built to carry it farther.

Welcome to Project Midlands. Let’s be heard together.
