About GovWell

GovWell builds software that helps government serve communities better. We the people (and the taxpayers) deserve efficient government - but the software powering government services is 20 years behind. Founded in 2023, GovWell now powers critical services for municipalities and counties in 18 states serving 700,000 residents. GovWell has raised $5.5 million from Work-Bench and Bienville Capital. Read about us in TechCrunch.

Founding Story

Our mission is deeply personal for us. Ben Cohen, CTO and Co-Founder grew up helping his father - a general contractor - to apply for hundreds of construction permits. Ben's experiences navigating clunky 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, CEO and Co-Founder, was previously the first employee and Chief of Staff to the CEO 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. Troy earned his BA in Government magna cum laudefrom Cornell.
