SimpliGov, the leader in government forms and workflow automation, has been named to the 2026 GovTech 100 list for the sixth consecutive year. The company has received a significant growth investment from JMI Equity and now boasts the highest headcount, largest customer roster, and broadest geographic reach in its history, doing business with more states, cities, and counties across the U.S. than ever before.

Why it matters

SimpliGov's recognition on the prestigious GovTech 100 list demonstrates its continued leadership in helping state and local government agencies modernize their back-office workflows and citizen-facing services through its specialized forms and automation software built for the public sector. As federal funding has dried up, SimpliGov's solutions that fit current budgets, meet regulatory standards, and can be implemented quickly are in high demand.

The details

SimpliGov's core integrated digital forms, workflow automation, and e-signature solution will soon be augmented with native digital payments, empowering agencies to deliver an uninterrupted end-to-end customer experience. The company has also expanded its AI capabilities to make it easier for non-technical personnel to design application forms and workflows using basic voice prompts, furthering its mission of helping front-line staff customize new digital business processes that streamline operations, improve service delivery, and increase citizen engagement.

  • SimpliGov has made the GovTech 100 list each year since 2021.
  • The company received a significant growth investment from JMI Equity early last year.
