OpenGov was an accidental startup: @JTLonsdale, @DakinSloss, @Gundo_OG and others did a project to add transparency to local gov spending But the finances were a mess So they founded Delphi (became OpenGov, with Nate, Joe, Dakin, @ZacBookman) The intention wasn't to start a co, they had a mission and that mission was blocked by something else, so they built what was missing Thanks to Dan Woods for context
