18 years building for municipalities 

ClerkMinutes exists because the Clerk was always the one keeping everything together and always the one with the worst tools. We built this to fix that.  

About ClerkMinutes

Founded in 2024, ClerkMinutes is a product of HeyGov.

After spending over 15 years building for TownWeb and ClerkWare for municipal governments across hundreds of municipalities, we kept seeing the same gap. Agenda platforms that handled everything except the one thing Clerks actually hated.

ClerkMinutes exists because the people running local government were left out of the software that was supposed to help them.

The alternatives are point solutions. Transcription tools that don't understand government syntax, document editors that don't know what a consent agenda is, and calendar systems that don't embed agendas the way your municipality requires. Use them and you're still the handoff. Still the one moving files between systems. Still the one who knows where everything is because there's no other option.

So, we built the thing nobody else wanted to solve.

ClerkMinutes is bootstrapped and proudly headquartered in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin.

How we work

We treat every customer like a concierge guest.

We anticipate what you need before you ask. Every interaction is personal, detailed, and built around your specific situation.

We run toward hard problems.

Challenges don't slow us down. We treat obstacles as information and keep building.

We build for what's next.

We simplify complexity, stay ahead of what's coming, and bring the technical expertise to execute it.

We win as a team.

No handoffs that drop things or siloes with missing context. Everyone shares what they know.

Andrei Igna has spent over a decade building software that actually ships. Before joining HeyGov as CTO, he spent years understanding how governments and Clerks operate day to day. He owns the full technical picture at ClerkMinutes: architecture, APIs, AI integrations, and the infrastructure that keeps it running. He's based in Barcelona, which means new code is already shipping before most customers have had their morning coffee.
