About GovWell We the people (and the taxpayers) deserve effective government. But the software powering government services is 20 years behind the private sector. GovWell's mission is to build modern software products to help government serve communities better. After launching in April 2023, we now partner with government agencies in 9 states serving 300,000+ residents. GovWell has raised $5.5 million in VC funding from Work-Bench and Bienville Capital. Founding Story Our mission is deeply personal for us. Ben Cohen, Co-founder and CTO grew up helping his father - a general contractor - to apply for hundreds of construction permits. Ben's experiences navigating clunky, outdated government websites inspired him to build better solutions for the millions of tradespeople whose livelihoods depend on getting permits fast. Prior to founding GovWell, Ben worked for Uber and Amazon as a Software Engineer, and earned his AB in Computer Science summa cum laude from Princeton. Troy LeCaire, Co-founder and CEO, was employee #1 and Chief of Staff at RippleMatch, a software startup, helping it grow from $0 to $10M in annual revenue and a $200M valuation. Before RippleMatch, he worked for two U.S. senators from his home state of Wisconsin. He believes passionately in the potential for technology to help government work more effectively for citizens everywhere. Troy earned his BA in Government magna cum laudefrom Cornell. If you're excited about our mission but don't see a role for you, we encourage you to apply here and tell us how you can contribute.
