Super PAC App, the brainchild of recent Harvard Kennedy School graduate Jennifer Hollett and her MIT classmate, gives voters information on the big-money donors behind this season’s campaign ads in real time. The app, which was developed over the past year, was launched last month. Catching the entrepreneurial bug “wasn’t my plan,” Hollett said. “It kind of just happened. But I couldn’t have asked for more at graduation. This has been a great partnership between Harvard and MIT.”
