What is GovPilot?
GovPilot is government management software for local governments. Its cloud-based platform standardizes, digitizes and unifies the work a town does on one system: permits, code enforcement, clerk records, inspections, payments and GIS, all sharing one property record. It was founded in 2014, and more than 600 cities and counties use it today.
