About OpenGov
OpenGov was founded in 2012 by Zac Bookman, Joe Lonsdale, and technologists from Stanford University, who studied government budgeting in the aftermath of the Great Recession. They observed dedicated public servants struggle against outdated technology that prevented them from accessing timely spending information and communicating their priorities to residents and elected officials. Believing there was a better way, they built modern cloud software designed exclusively for government.
Today, OpenGov is the leading government software provider, with cloud-based solutions including Budgeting & Planning, Permitting & Licensing, Procurement, Cartegraph Asset Management, Financials, and Tax & Revenue. Over 1,900 public agencies nationwide form a growing network leveraging OpenGov to operate more efficiently, adapt to change, and strengthen public trust.
