# ClearGov

> ClearGov is a cloud-based government budgeting, financial reporting, and community engagement software platform for local governments and school districts. Its Finance Cycle Management suite unifies strategic planning, operating and capital budgeting, budget book and ACFR/financial report creation, and resident engagement in a single connected system. More than 2,000 local governments and school districts use ClearGov to plan, budget, report, and engage.
