Uptrust, Inc. is a software company that provides innovative solutions to navigate the criminal justice system, with a focus on supporting low-income defendants. Founded in 2015 and headquartered in San Francisco, California, Uptrust develops software that integrates seamlessly with existing case management systems. This technology facilitates automated messaging, allowing defendants to connect with their public defenders to address concerns and ask questions. The software is used by individuals booked into local jails pretrial for various offenses, as well as by municipal courts for sending text reminders and tracking attendance rates. Uptrust's application helps ensure compliance by minimizing technical violations, assisting defendants in attending court hearings, and significantly reducing incarceration rates without adding to the workload of public defenders or court staff. The company serves a range of clients, including public defenders, probation and parole departments, specialty courts, and various court systems across California, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.
