About
Recidiviz is a San Francisco, California-based nonprofit technology organization — funded by Arnold Ventures, Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, Mozilla Foundation, and Stand Together Trust — partnering with state departments of corrections to provide real-time data platforms, AI-powered case management tools, and decision-support systems that help identify incarcerated people eligible for early release, improve probation and parole supervision outcomes, and reduce recidivism at a systemic scale across the US prison population. Founded in 2018 by Executive Director Clementine Jacoby, Andrew Warren, and Joshua Essex — three former Google product managers who began the organization as a volunteer project while still at Google — Recidiviz started with seed funding of $150,000 from Y Combinator in 2019 and has grown to partner with 16 state departments of corrections as of 2024, including Idaho, Iowa, Maine, Missouri, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and others. The organization's measured impact includes helping 156,000 people return home across all partner states, contributing to more than $1.3 billion in taxpayer savings, with projections showing over $3.8 billion in costs avoided and 245,000 life years given back to people in the justice system. In September 2024, Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds announced a partnership with Recidiviz, joining 15 other state corrections departments leveraging Recidiviz's platform.
