Government App Solutions
Series A in 2018
Government App Solutions, Inc. prides itself on being a mobile app that provides the people with a true distracted driving enforcement platform. We help municipalities enforce texting and driving violations with the goal of lowering the death and injury rates caused by incidents.
Our platform provides an iOS and Android mobile application to users (public and local government) which they use to submit videos of distracted drivers. This will aid cities in reducing the amount of cell phone use while driving and improve community, driver, and pedestrian safety. Our company works closely with local law enforcement and county traffic courts and we provide them with everything needed to efficiently issue tickets and enforce them.
Our primary business focus is increasing road safety by ONLY allowing and accepting videos to be submitted by passengers and pedestrians. Our app’s technology automatically tracks the user’s location, time, date, route and other necessary information needed to issue and enforce tickets. Once the user records the violation (a video clip of the violation and the violator's license plate) it is encrypted and sent securely to our servers where it is digitally signed to prevent tampering. Videos are reviewed and the ticket can be issued once approved by local law enforcement.
In summary, Government App Solutions is the first application and technology platform of its kind. We are the only provider of such a product and we are committed to reducing the prevalence of distracted driving. Since launch, local governments have asked us to expand our services to include vertical industries such as parking and code enforcement. We have been endorsed by State Representatives/Legislators, Mayors, Law Enforcement Agencies and even government agencies throughout the nation.
