u0026 About Us

n

We the people (and the taxpayers) deserve effective government. But the software powering government services is 20 years behind the private sector. Our mission is to build modern software products to help government serve communities better. After launching in April 2023, we now partner with government agencies in 7 states serving 200,000+ residents. We has raised $5.5 million in VC funding from Work-Bench and Bienville Capital.

Founding Story

n

Our mission is deeply personal for us. Ouru0026 Co-founder and CTO grew up helping his father u0026mdash; a general contractor u0026mdash; to apply for hundreds of construction permits. Benu0026rsquo;s experiences navigating clunky, outdated government websites inspired him to build better solutions for the millions of tradespeople whose livelihoods depend on getting permits fast. Prior to founding this company, our Co-Founder and CTO worked for Uber and Amazon as a Software Engineer, and earned his AB in Computer Science summa cum laudeu0026 from Princeton.
