About GovWell
At GovWell, we believe that citizens and taxpayers deserve efficient and effective government services. Unfortunately, many interactions with government can be cumbersome and slow. Our mission is to revolutionize this landscape by developing an AI-powered operating system that transforms how local governments serve their communities.
By modernizing outdated software for municipalities and counties, we empower public servants to dramatically enhance public services, cutting internal processing times for permits and licenses by as much as 90%.
Founded in 2023, GovWell currently facilitates over 5,000 essential processes for agencies across more than 30 states, positively impacting millions of residents. We have successfully raised $10 million in seed funding from Work-Bench and Bienville Capital, and our team operates from our headquarters in the vibrant New York City.
