About

One movement, one framework


Colorado Compute began with one conviction: the AI era should make life better for every Coloradan, with Colorado the capital of AI in the country. Opportunity and protection belong in one framework, not at odds.

So Colorado Compute built its framework around three pillars.

Before the November 3, 2026 general election, the movement asks every candidate on its scorecard, for governor, attorney general, United States Senate, and United States House, to commit to all three.
