Sean Doherty

Sean Doherty is the co-founder and CEO of GovDash, a New York-based AI platform that helps companies win and run U.S. government contracts. What started as a college friendship and a hangout-scheduling app turned into a Y Combinator (W22) company now serving nearly 200 contractors whose customers booked over $5B in awards in a single year. In January 2026 GovDash raised an oversubscribed $30M Series B, bringing total funding to roughly $40M, as Doherty pushes to automate the entire government-contracting lifecycle from opportunity discovery to post-award delivery.
