Federal Experience Cloud

Federal Experience Cloud (FXC) is a FedRAMP-authorized digital engagement and analytics solution built specifically to support federal missions. It transforms one-size-fits-all outreach into predictable, targeted, intelligence-rich, and measurable service paths.

FXC empowers agency and program leaders to identify, understand, and reach eligible populations, to orchestrate multichannel digital journeys to completion, and to prove outcomes at national scale. With FXC, agencies can continuously and efficiently drive enrollment, adoption, compliance, and sustained participation across the full lifecycle of their programs.

Tap into a government network reaching 360M people globally

Accelerate program adoption and completion by growing opt-in audiences faster, without costly acquisition. Reach eligible audiences at scale using the Granicus Subscriber Network, the largest public ecosystem of government-connected audiences. With an industry‑leading 98% deliverability, agencies ensure critical messages reach eligible populations from day one. This approach helps prevent missed populations, improves early program uptake, and establishes sustained, compliant engagement from initial awareness through ongoing participation.

“We didn’t have the budget for a big advertising campaign with billboards or television spots. We had an on-the-ground strategy in each state, and the Granicus Experience Group was critical in helping us expand our audience and awareness at the level we needed.”

Understand people beyond their inbox

Every email represents a real person with real needs requiring individual attention. FXC helps agencies go beyond inbox behavior to understand constituents’ needs with relevant, high-quality data. With more than 1,000 data points on real human characteristics, FXC shows agencies what individuals care about and respond to, so they can deliver relevant, timely communications that build trust and lead to higher enrollments, more program participation, and stronger compliance.

“Our ultimate goal is to connect those who need help or support with all of the available resources. And so much of our success hinges on our ability to effectively reach new audience members, keep them engaged, and drive them to the resources they need.”

Multichannel outreach to empower digital self-service

Guide citizens through digital journeys

Use automated, multi-stage service paths at scale across email, SMS, social media, and web to increase citizen satisfaction and program performance while reducing costs. A single solution guides target populations from initial awareness or eligibility through ongoing engagement, full adoption, benefit understanding, compliance, and continued use of self-service channels. Automated activity-based triggers and one-to-one messaging reduce manual outreach time by up to 90%, freeing leaders and staff to focus on strategic priorities instead of manual work.

“The 2020 Census was the first census with the internet as the primary way to respond, and many households took advantage of this option. The majority (nearly 80%) of households that self-responded did so online.”

“What VA has done … is to help furnish the department with the ability to channel those insights and data points to understand [the veteran experience], first and foremost, and to utilize data to make process improvements, create new tools, develop different training, create a new website or a mobile app, and anything in between to really enhance the experience based on what veterans are telling us."
