About OpenCivic
A focused civic-technology partner — built for the public sector, not passing through it.
OpenCivic exists to make land-use regulation accessible, transparent, and efficient. We partner with county and city planning departments to put grounded, cited answers in the hands of staff and the public — cutting counter wait times, phone calls, and misread code sections, while keeping your team the authority on every decision.
Public sector first
We design for how government actually works — procurement, public records, accessibility, and the authority of your staff — not enterprise sales theater.
Grounded over flashy
Our whole architecture exists to make answers come from your code with a citation. Accuracy and defensibility beat a clever-sounding guess.
A partner, not a portal
We do the heavy lifting on setup and keep tuning as your ordinances evolve. You get a responsive team — not software you're left to figure out alone.
Specialists, by design
We do one thing — planning & zoning intelligence — and configure it to your jurisdiction. Big enough to transform, small enough to deliver.
