Esper overview

What is Esper?

Esper is policy management software for government. The platform is designed for policy advisors, agency directors, general counsel, and information technology officers who need to streamline and collaborate on the end-to-end policymaking process.

Esper's suite of cloud-based tools supports policy drafting, legal research, project management, and public engagement. Policymakers can create templates, draft policy, track versions, and collect stakeholder feedback all within Esper. The software also offers a robust database of regulations and laws that can be easily searched, compared, and bookmarked. Agencies can identify non-compliant policies requiring further review.

With configurable workflows, Esper automates task assignments, approvals, and tracks milestones across the policy lifecycle. Users stay on top of deadlines with permissions and reminders. Public comment management is streamlined by importing, transcribing, and grouping comments which can be attached to drafts. Response documents can also be generated.

Built for transparency and collaboration, Esper empowers governments to create equitable policies, engage citizens, and transform policymaking.
