We the people — and the taxpayers — deserve good government. Yet today, interacting with government services is often frustrating and inefficient. GovWell is building the AI operating system transforming how governments serve communities, starting with local agencies. GovWell replaces legacy software for municipalities and counties, empowering public servants to radically streamline public services and cut internal processing time for permits & licenses by up to 95%. Founded in 2023, GovWell powers 5,000+ mission-critical processes for agencies in 40+ states serving millions of residents. We've raised $35M from Insight Partners, Work-Bench and Bienville Capital, and work in person at our HQ in New York City.
