Activists have launched a number of websites under the name "SisiMeter" to measure the success of Egyptian President-elect Abdel Fattah al-Sisi in implementing his promises.

The "SisiMeter" sites are similar to the MorsiMeter website, which was founded by activists in 2012 immediately after the electoral victory of ousted President Mohammed Morsi. Like SisiMeter, the MorsiMeter site measured the extent to which Morsi implemented electoral promises.
