Speaking session

Join our session on Sunday morning.

How city leaders are moving AI from experimentation to everyday work.

An AI policy is an important foundation, but impact comes from how AI is introduced and used every day. Drawing on 180+ local governments using GovAI, this session gives city managers a practical playbook for adoption, IT oversight, and measuring impact.

Helping staff work smarterPractical ways to build AI use across departments.

Get to know GovAI

GovAI is the AI work platform for local government.

Staff use it every day to finish real work across departments, with guardrails built in.

One place for the work

One shared system where staff get work done every day, from drafting minutes to reviewing permits.

Built for local government

Made around how city and county work actually runs: accountability, process, and who signs off.

Ready on day one

Government workflows and guardrails are already set up, so staff don't have to invent how to use AI.

Governed by design

IT gets admin control and an audit trail. Your content isn’t used to train AI models.

Connected across departments

It sits on your systems and knowledge, so work can move between the clerk, finance, public works, and leadership.

Coaching as work goes live

Our local government experts stand up the first workflows with you and coach each department.
