  About Pol.is

  Posted by Owen Garcia on August 25, 2025 at 2:02 pm

  You’re asking whether there has been a new release of Pol.is (also spelled “pol.is” or “Polis”)—the open-source civic-tech platform used for large-scale deliberation.

  I wasn’t able to find any announcement or indication of an official new software release—such as version updates or a new numbered release—for the Pol.is codebase itself. The GitHub repository for the documentation, for example, shows no published releases (GitHub). There’s also no reference to a new software version on the project’s site or Wikipedia (Wikipedia, compdemocracy.org).

  That said, there was a preview session titled “Pol.is 2.0 sneak preview” held on June 11, 2025, where project leaders shared insights into ongoing developments (TICTeC). Additionally, the Pol.is project account on X (formerly Twitter) hinted at features aligning with a 2.0 version rollout, mentioning that “Pol.is 2.0 ships a data export API” which now allows real-time CSV exports from conversation reports (X (formerly Twitter)).

  <hr>Summary

  • No formal version release (like “v2.0”) has been publicly published or tagged yet.

  • However, Pol.is 2.0 is in active development, with features being rolled out—particularly a data export API, and a sneak-preview presented in mid-2025.

  • The core code and documentation on GitHub still show no formal releases (GitHub).

  <hr>What You Can Do

  • Keep an eye on the project’s GitHub repo and the main site for updates or emerging release tags.

  • If you’re tracking new features like the CSV export API, watch the Pol.is X/Twitter account (@UsePolis) for developer updates (X (formerly Twitter)).

  • You might also contact the maintainers directly—especially if you’re planning to deploy or upgrade to include Pol.is 2.0 features.

  Let me know if you’d like help tracking upcoming releases or evaluating 2.0 features for your use case!
