Sleeping Giant· 41/100
Has a real moat but invisible to agents. Add an MCP and you'd climb.
“OpenGov owns a defensible position because permitting is a coordination problem across government agencies, contractors, and applicants—not a document-generation problem. The real value is the integration with municipal systems, the legal liability for processing official permits, and the network effects of having both permit issuers and applicants on the platform. An LLM can draft text; it cannot replace the rails that move a permit from application to approval.”
Defensibility · 75/100
- Physical-world coupling
- Regulatory moat
- Network liquidity
- Proprietary refreshing data
- High-trust catastrophic workflows
- Multi-party coordination
- Brand / community / taste
An LLM alone could replace
- Generate a permit application form template
- Draft inspection checklist language
- Create a licensing requirement summary document
- Write workflow automation rules in plain English
Agent-Readiness · 0/100
- Verified MCP
- Listed on agent surfaces
- Usage-based pricing

How to defend
Double down on the coordination moat by making the platform the required hub for multi-agency sign-offs and inspections. Expand the data moat by building proprietary datasets of permit timelines, approval rates, and compliance patterns by jurisdiction—data competitors can't scrape because it lives inside government systems.
- Ship an MCP server and list it on Stork — biggest single point gain (+25).
- Get listed in the Anthropic MCP registry, Cursor, or Claude Desktop (+20).
- Add a usage-based or per-call tier; per-seat-only pricing dies when agents replace seats (+15).
- Expose API-key auth with a self-serve sandbox tier; remove sales-call gates (+15).
- Publish an OpenAPI spec at /openapi.json or /.well-known/openapi (+10).
