Digital platform for a planetary peace movement
Global Peace Yes is a U.S-based NGO (Special Consultative Status at the U.N.) rallying one billion voices to “live with love over fear.” As Fractional CTO I turned a bold vision into an operational, fraud-resistant voting platform.
Challenge
Mobilise one billion verified votes for peace while protecting privacy, blocking fraud and earning public trust, on a nonprofit budget and an aggressive deadline.

I contributed as Fractional CTO:
- Lean team – collaborated with engineers, designers and DevOps.
- Security-first architecture – tokenised email verification, duplicate prevention and SOC-2-aligned infra.
- Serverless & open-source – Firebase + GCP reduce cost, autoscale to any spike, and cut opex to zero.
- Growth loops built-in – AI summarization, native share API, live counter, multi-language UI and analytics for rapid optimisation.
Outcomes
- ✅ MVP live with 99.9% uptime.
- ✅ Higher quality and 100% mission-aligned compared to dev agencies.
- ✅ AI-powered; summarization and community sentiment analysis.
