GovWell Named a Finalist for SXSW Pitch 2026

We’re headed to Austin.

GovWell has been selected as a finalist for SXSW Pitch 2026 in the Enterprise and Future of Work category, as one of just 45 companies chosen from 589 applicants worldwide.

Each year, South by Southwest convenes leaders in technology, art, and culture in Austin, Texas. As the festival's flagship innovation showcase, SXSW Pitch invites companies from around the world to present to a panel of judges and a live audience and show what they’re building.

We’re honored to be invited to participate in this year’s event as a finalist. More than the pitch, this is a chance to introduce GovWell to a wider audience and show what's possible when government works the way people expect it to.

SXSW Pitch takes place the first weekend of the festival, from Friday, March 13 to Sunday, March 15 in Austin. GovWell will present alongside four other companies in our category before the Awards Ceremony on Saturday night, then connect with other founders at Sunday's startup gathering. Our co-founders Troy LeCaire and Ben Cohen will be sharing more of our product vision and showing real examples of how our AI-native platform helps governments across the US cut through backlog, reduce burden for staff, and deliver services that actually earn public trust.

We hope to see you at SXSW 2026!
