Concourse is an early-stage, fast-growing startup building AI-powered software for state and local governments. This is the CEO’s second venture after a successful exit.

We sell technology to state and local governments, aiming to improve public services by replacing legacy, inefficient systems. The core problem we address is the disconnect between tax payments and perceived government inefficiency-often due to outdated technology.

We’re building an AI-native company where every team member is empowered to use AI tools like Claude to automate their work. Our team has a hub in Flatiron, NYC, and we support remote roles where it fits the role.
