Manager, Customer Success bei PublicInput

About PublicInput

PublicInput develops and supports Software-as-a-Service (Saas) solutions designed for government agencies and their consultant partners to facilitate and manage better communication with the public.

Based in Raleigh, NC, the company was founded with a vision to access and elevate historically underrepresented communities in the municipal and state planning process, while simultaneously streamlining cumbersome administrative work that so often prevents equitable outcomes.

With a shared background in planning consulting, the company's co-founders believe that technology can play a key role in making government more responsive and representative of communities' broadest needs.

Our Approach

Many engagement solutions only address small parts of the engagement process, offering a piecemeal approach that relies on third-party partnerships to fill in the gaps.

PublicInput uses a unified approach, blending traditional and virtual engagement tactics via one integrated platform.

Reliable, equitable, and simple, our easy-to-use user interface gives governments all the tools needed to facilitate successful public engagement.

Our Culture

PublicInput is driven by the idea that "life is all about the people you meet and the things you create with them." We are privileged to work with exceptionally talented colleagues to create a meaningful change for governments and society.

PublicInput's mission is to enable collaborative democracy through technology. This means creating systems that allow governments to build relationships with their community through more reliable communication, lowered barriers to participation, and data analytics to understand what they're hearing.

That is why we work hard to be the experienced and empathetic innovation partner that state and local governments deserve, while building an exceptional team and company.
