Former government officials and technologists helping local agencies modernize systems with confidence.

Local government is the backbone of every community, and the people who serve in it deserve technology that truly supports their work. GovOwl was created to help agencies modernize with confidence and to give staff systems that are dependable.

Our leadership includes former government officials who guide our work with insight gained from real public service. Their experience shapes how we design our systems and how we support the agencies we serve.

The GovOwl story began in California in 2011 as Inspect2Go. We started with a simple mobile app for food inspections, and agencies asked for more. That first tool grew into a complete solution for entire environmental health departments, and its core capabilities naturally carried into other programs. Departments began pulling us in to modernize their workflows, and the platform expanded across divisions into a broader local-government system. Along the way we earned nationwide references, a 99 percent annual retention rate, and steady year-over-year growth. The name GovOwl reflects that evolution and a mission that grew beyond our early beginnings.

Every agency charts its own path forward. If your department is preparing for its next chapter, we would be honored to support you as you govern wisely.
