24/7 Access to Comprehensive Digital Forms

GovPilot offers end-to-end digital forms for all of your Clerks’ departmental workflows. Available 24/7 on your government’s website for residents to complete, form fields accurately capture all relevant details, required information, and payment information directly from your constituents prior to submission. No manual data entry necessary on the back end and no more follow-up from staff required.

GovPilot’s templated modules represent the gold standard in government management processes and enable municipal and county Clerk Departments to seamlessly manage everything from Open Records Requests (OPRA/FOIA) to Business Registrations, Pet Licenses to Volunteer Registration, Filming Licenses to No-Knock Permits, and more.

GovPilot's cloud-based platform is accessible by government officials and employees at any time from anywhere - whether in the office or remote. Complete tasks, process requests, and respond to constituents no matter the circumstance, location or time.

Efficient, Transparent Processing

Eliminate the need to re-enter data or transpose handwritten information into a single-use software system or spreadsheet. With GovPilot, the resident applicant does all the work for you when they fill their form out digitally from the comfort and convenience of their home.

Upon submission, form data speeds through the appropriate sequence and order of operations along an automated workflow that triggers updates to applicants and relevant staff at key steps in the process, keeping everyone informed.

Employees can look up records in just a click and immediately understand its status - when it was submitted, what phase it is in, which colleague is assigned to it, and when it was completed. Even team members from other departments can look up records, eliminating the need to respond to distracting requests via phone, email or in person.

Significant Time Savings

Eliminate the need to store and search paper files. Generate formatted reports and mail merge lists with just a click! Digital records are easily processed, tracked, filtered, and searched, saving hours previously spent on time consuming, manual tasks. Records from all departments are digitally anchored at the parcel-level, giving any employee an instant view of all historical and current records, applications, and certificates associated with individual properties.

With GovPilot, you can dedicate significant time savings each day to other important tasks and initiatives while providing your constituents with the digital convenience and transparency they expect.
