Civic tech startup OpenGov has released a tool to analyze budgets city to city, department by department, for financial strategy and policy making.
The financial transparency startup OpenGov has a new tool in its chest of budget visualization apps.
On Oct. 28, OpenGov Co-founders Mike Rosengarten, Nate Levine, Joe Lonsdale and CEO Zac Bookman, announced a new feature called OpenGov Comparisons. The analytics tool, available only for internal users, is marketed as a digital scale that instantly weighs one city’s expenditures and revenues against another's. Financial planners might use the analysis to identify budget benchmarks for expenditures in public safety, transportation, public works and other services.
