InsideOut Competitors

CivicPlus is the only government technology company exclusively committed to powering and empowering governments to efficiently operate, serve, and govern through the use of our innovative and integrated technology solutions purpose-built and supported by former municipal leaders and award-winning support teams. When many residents hear the word government, they think of federal and state leaders and agencies. However, in reality, residents interact more with the local leaders whose work and initiatives impact them directly where they live, work, play, and raise their families. At CivicPlus®️, we believe that every interaction between residents and their local government should be exceptional and frictionless. It’s why we build technology solutions designed to foster positive and powerful civic experiences. With more than 20 years of experience, CivicPlus has earned the trust of over 12,000 customers, their 100,000+ local government users, and their 340 million+ residents in the U.S. and Canada alone.

We believe there’s no force more powerful than people taking collective action on the things they care about. When an organization wants to mobilize people around a common purpose, they come to us. We don’t pretend to have all the answers, but we know where to find them: in people. We listen, learn, and uncover new insights that often surprise us and our clients — and move us toward better results. Blue State got its start on the campaign trail, pioneering the use of digital to open up the democratic process. Our new approach caught on, and we set out to do more good: raising millions more for nonprofits, shaping legislation and public opinion, and connecting consumers with brands. While our approach is continually evolving, our ethos has never changed: Make good trouble. When the status quo stands in the way of progress, we challenge it. Be curious. We ask the tough questions and let the data lead to answers. Put people first. We let the user drive the program, not the other way around. Drive real change. We obsess over outcomes and actions. If you need it, build it. We make stuff that empowers people to act on the things they care about. Walk the walk. Progress starts with us: our diversity, inclusion, and commitment to values over profits.
