Socrata @socrata

Startup, New York, NY – 51-200 employees

Our mission at Socrata is to unleash the power of data to improve the world around us. Since 2007, we have focused exclusively on democratizing access to the vast troves of data held by government institutions around the world, and making that data useful to people in their daily lives.

We have set out to develop a new kind of software infrastructure and an open innovation network designed to unlock the flow of data into the economy and put it in people’s hands. We’re part of a global movement called “Open Data” where a growing community of civic innovators, elected leaders, engineers, entrepreneurs, journalists, and researchers are applying new, data-driven solutions to age-old problems in government and society as a whole.

Our software platform and cloud-based solutions support the world’s most ambitious open data innovation programs at every level of government around the world. Our customers include the US Federal Government; one-third of US states, and most major US cities.
