Built in partnership with cities, counties, school districts, and utility districts, supporting public meetings and records.
Made by people who believe public service deserves better tools.
One Unified Platform. For Public Agencies of Every Size.
Every decision that shapes a community flows through the public forum - from first reading to final vote. That process carries the same legal weight and operational rigor whether you serve 5,000 residents or 5 million.
Govinity gives every agency a single platform purpose-built for that complexity: from department reports through council action, mayor transmittal, and public archival.
One enterprise license. No per-user, per-meeting or per-board fees. It's public money. We price like it.
Founded by proven govtech veterans who've bent over backward for their customers for more than 25 years

Frequently asked questions
What is Govinity?
Govinity helps local governments keep every public decision on the record, in one place. Govinity Legislative Management carries each item from the first agenda request through the vote, the minutes and the public archive. It includes three products: Govinity Tenure for boards and commissions, Govinity AgendaCycle for items and agendas, and Govinity Gavel for meetings and minutes. Every product includes Govinity Access, the public portal. Govinity Gateway, which connects the record to your website and AI tools, is available with every Govinity product.
Who is Govinity for?
Govinity is for any public body that makes decisions in public meetings, whether it serves 5,000 residents or 5 million. That includes city councils, county commissions and boards of supervisors, school boards, special districts and utility boards, appointed boards and commissions, state agencies and state legislatures. The people who use it every day are clerks and board secretaries, along with department staff, managers and IT.
How is Govinity different from other agenda management software?
Govinity runs the whole path of a public decision on one platform with one record, instead of separate tools for boards, agendas, meetings and minutes. It was built by people who've done this work for decades, from the clerk's desk and the vendor's side. Configuration to your agency's rules is included with every implementation. Support responds the same day, every time, including during evening meetings. Managing public meetings and the decisions made in them is our only business.
Who owns Govinity?
Govinity is founder-led and privately held, with no private-equity or venture-capital investment. The people who built the product run the company, from its headquarters in San Francisco. Anything that needs executive attention reaches a founder directly, typically the same day.
Who founded Govinity?
Govinity was founded in 2025 by two government technology veterans. Thao Hill, co-founder and CEO, was CTO of Public Systems Associates, the Louisiana Legislature's technology provider, chief customer officer of ProcureNow, and head of product, engineering, customer service and sales at Granicus. David Gertmenian-Wong, co-founder and CTO. David co-founded and served as CTO of ProcureNow. He later became president and CEO and led the successful acquisition to OpenGov. At OpenGov he led engineering and scaled the product to become the industry leader serving 500+ government agencies. David and Thao have worked together for more than 8 years.
Govinity is a young company. Why should we trust it with our public record?
The company is new, but the people running it aren't new to this work. Govinity's founders helped build Granicus and ProcureNow and led technology for the Louisiana Legislature's technology provider. Govinity's first customer went live in October 2025, and it now has 17 customers across 10 states, including Santa Fe County, New Mexico. Every reference we offer is a working customer you can call directly.
Does Govinity work with our website and AI tools?
Yes. Govinity Gateway is available with every Govinity product and is available now to beta customers ahead of general release. It lets your website, records systems and AI tools pull meetings, agendas, items, votes and documents straight from your official record. Your website's chatbot can answer residents' questions about meetings and decisions with just an API key. It only shares what you've already made public; closed-session material, drafts and unpublished items never come through.
How is Govinity priced?
Govinity is sold as one enterprise license for your whole organization, with no per-user, per-meeting or per-board fees. Support is included in the subscription, and implementation is priced separately. It's public money. We price like it.
Can we buy Govinity through a cooperative contract?
Yes. Govinity's cooperative contract partner, Vertosoft, helps public agencies buy Govinity through cooperative purchasing options. If your agency buys through a Vertosoft-supported cooperative that offers Govinity, you can use that path to simplify procurement. See our Partners page for details.
