EffiGov builds an AI operating system for local governments, starting with AI call operators that handle constituent services around the clock. Its platform answers 311 and departmental phone lines 24/7, managing tasks such as permit applications, animal control requests, and routing inquiries to the correct department. The company targets a gap in which fewer than 2% of cities can afford centralized call centers, giving smaller municipalities access to automated service infrastructure. EffiGov was founded in 2025 and participated in Y Combinator's Summer 2025 batch.
