Civic intelligence is transforming business

We’re on a mission to improve access to municipal meeting data so that businesses—and their people—have the knowledge they need to thrive.

It all started when our co-founder Taralinda, a construction project manager, noticed that vendors won more business when they used relevant info from city meeting minutes. 

Combine this insight with the web-sweeping technology created by our other co-founder, Dale (a former University of Wisconsin-Madison computer science Ph.D. candidate)—and Curate was born.

Since 2016, we’ve grown to become the leading software for municipal meeting data in the United States. Every week, we curate data from thousands of municipal entities and continuously improve our algorithms to offer the most important insights to our customers.
