Forerunner

Forerunner is a Series B company building the AI-powered intelligence layer for local government — helping large cities and counties finally make sense of the data they already have. Here's the problem we're solving: cities spend millions on permit systems, GIS, and asset management tools, but still can't answer their most important operational questions. Data sits fragmented across systems that don't talk to each other. Valuable observations from field crews never get captured. And none of today's tools help agencies connect the dots and take action. Forerunner sits on top of the tech stack agencies already have. We connect their existing systems, give frontline teams an AI-guided mobile experience to fill the gaps, and turn fragmented information into decisions and actions that reduce liability, surface revenue, and prevent issues from becoming emergencies. We serve nearly 200 governments across the country — and we're growing fast.
