DENVER–(BUSINESS WIRE)–i3logix, the Denver-based software company behind BallotTrax™, the country’s first and only patented mail-ballot tracking and notification system, has been awarded a second new U.S. patent, solidifying its market position to deliver proactive ballot status alerts to voters.
U.S. Patent No. 12,340,633, issued June 24, 2025, with a priority date of February 2, 2010, expands the company’s IP protections. BallotTrax™ is now the only system with patented technology to notify voters—via text, email, or voice—of their ballot’s status at each step of the mail voting process.
“Ballot status notifications have become one of the most cherished features of vote-by-mail systems,” said Steve Olsen, CEO of i3logix. “Now that our technology is protected by patent, we’re ensuring that counties and states can continue providing these critical alerts legally, reliably, and securely. Voter confidence depends on it.”
The BallotTrax™ system receives data from ballot printers, election systems, and USPS scans. An intelligent barcode, linked to the voter’s ID, is printed on outbound and inbound envelopes—never on the ballot itself—preserving privacy while enabling transparency. Voters choose how and when to receive alerts, with customizable delivery methods, languages, and notification windows. Counties use BallotTrax™ to automate outreach for issues such as signature mismatches or ballot rejections, and to offer helpful reminders and drop-off options.
Vote-by-mail has surged in popularity since 2020, and BallotTrax™ now serves 19 states and nearly 400 counties—tracking approximately one in every four ballots cast in the United States.
The company’s first patent, issued in 2023, established a foundation for secure mail ballot tracking. The newly awarded patent expands those protections to cover additional aspects of the platform’s architecture, alerting mechanisms, and voter customization features—ensuring that the BallotTrax™ intellectual property remains the only fully protected and compliant solution on the market.
“This patent underscores our leadership in secure, compliant, and voter-centric election technology,” Olsen added. “We’re committed to protecting the integrity of our system and ensuring that election officials have the most technologically advanced and protected system on the market.”
Counties using BallotTrax™ report reduced administrative costs, improved vendor accountability, and significantly enhanced voter trust. i3logix continues to expand its IP portfolio and work closely with jurisdictions to ensure compliance ahead of upcoming elections.
