**ClearGov and Gravity Announce Merger, Combining Forces to Create End-to-End Modern Finance Platform for Public Sector

Today, ClearGov and Gravity announced the completion of their merger, operating under the ClearGov brand. Together, the new ClearGov business form one team with a shared mission to make public sector finance easier, faster, and more transparent for communities. With the merger of ClearGov and Gravity, the new ClearGov becomes the most comprehensive modern finance platform serving local governments, school districts, and state agencies across the United States.

Solving the Most Pressing Challenges in Public Sector Finance
Public finance teams face rising complexity: tighter budgets, limited staff capacity, aging infrastructure, new compliance requirements, and growing public expectations for transparency. The combined ClearGov platform helps agencies meet these demands by:

• Increasing productivity with automation, faster reporting, and simplified document preparation
• Reducing manual work and eliminating version chaos with integrated and automated processes
• Improving collaboration across departments with shared workflows and connected data
• Building community trust with clearer, more accessible financial communication

“Uniting ClearGov and Gravity, we are unlocking the next chapter of innovation in the public sector,” said Tyler Davey, CEO of ClearGov. “Public sector finance teams do essential work, and too often they’re doing it with tools that slow them down. By bringing our two companies together, we’re removing friction from the entire finance lifecycle – strategizing, planning, budgeting, disclosing – so agencies can work with more clarity, more speed, and more confidence in how they do their work and share information with the communities they serve.”

**Trusted by More Than 1,700 Agencies — Now Stronger Together
**

By uniting Gravity’s enterprise-grade reporting, disclosure automation, and grants management with ClearGov’s strengths in budgeting, planning, and community engagement, the combined platform now supports more than 1,700 government organizations nationwide.

The platform creates one continuous workflow — connecting planning, budgeting, reporting, disclosures, grants, and transparency, and delivers the operational and compliance capabilities that legacy ERP systems were not designed to support. The result is a more efficient, accurate, and connected way for governments to manage their financial operations and engage their communities.

**Leadership Continuity
**

Tyler Davey, former CEO of Gravity, will lead the combined organization as CEO. ClearGov co-founders Bryan Burdick and Chris Bullock will remain in key leadership roles, with Burdick serving the board and Bullock as Chief Innovation Officer (CIO), guiding long-term product vision.

“ClearGov was built to help public sector organizations operate more efficiently and communicate more clearly,” said Chris Bullock. “By joining forces with Gravity, we are accelerating our roadmap and delivering even more value to our customers.”

As part of the transaction, Lead Edge Capital — a $5 billion growth equity firm known for backing category-defining software companies including Toast, DuoSecurity, and LiveView Technologies — acquired ClearGov and merged the company with existing investment Gravity.

“Together, ClearGov and Gravity represent the future of public sector financial modernization,” said Dan Lynn, Partner at Lead Edge Capital. “We’re proud to support a platform that strengthens government operations and transparency at a moment when communities need it most.”

Throughout 2026, customers will continue using the ClearGov and Gravity products they rely on today, with a unified platform experience expected to begin rolling out later this year.
