Tech for Good: Strengthening Communities

From small beginnings in Maine to a nationwide mission, we harness technology to simplify government information and strengthen communities everywhere.

From a Conversation in Maine to a Mission for Communities Everywhere

Civic Sunlight was founded by two old friends, David and Tom, who reconnected in Camden, Maine. Frustrated by the challenge of navigating hours of government meetings, they envisioned a better way. By harnessing the power of AI, they created a platform to simplify civic engagement. What began in Maine has grown into a nationwide mission to make government information clear, accessible, and actionable.
