We build the systems behind better decisions
Designed with intention. Built to hold up.
Morton Analytics builds custom software, data pipelines, and AI-driven tools for government agencies and businesses. We specialize in data quality, decision support, geospatial analysis, and machine learning — all on open-source technology with no software licenses.
About Us
Builders, not consultants.
Morton Analytics started from a simple idea: build tools that empower people to make better decisions with their data. What began as a data analytics practice has grown into a team that builds custom software, analytical tools, and AI-driven products for federal agencies and businesses. We're SBA 8(a) certified, open-source by default, and based in Missoula, Montana.

We use design thinking to get you involved early and often — rapid prototypes, real feedback, working software you can test before it ships. We meet you where you are and build from there.
We commit to open-source software because transparency matters. When the methodology is visible, the results are trustworthy. When there’s no license, the cost stays predictable. When you own the code, you own your future.
