AI for government agencies, built to pass an authorization.
AI for real public-sector work: document and forms processing, constituent assistants, fraud detection, and knowledge search, inside the security and accountability rules government runs on. Built FedRAMP and FISMA aware, with a senior Sthenos team accountable from first call to production.
What we deliver
Production AI for federal, state, and local agencies, governed and auditable, not a demo that hallucinates.
Document & forms processing
Reading, classifying, and extracting data from the high volume of documents agencies handle, with humans reviewing what matters.
Constituent & staff assistants
Grounded assistants that answer from approved sources instead of guessing, reducing call and ticket volume.
Fraud, waste & anomaly detection
Flagging unusual patterns in payments, claims, and applications for human investigators.
Knowledge search
Making policy, regulation, and internal knowledge findable so staff spend less time hunting and more time deciding.
Operations automation
Taking repetitive, rules-plus-judgment work off people's plates so teams focus on the mission.
Built to pass a security review
AI fails in regulated environments when security and governance are an afterthought. We build them in from the first commit.
Built for buyers who answer to auditors
Government and regulated commercial teams that need AI that is accurate and safe, not a demo that hallucinates.
Boutique accountability with enterprise-scale capacity.
A senior Sthenos lead owns your engagement and engineers AI to be grounded and controlled rather than impressive and unreliable. When a program needs scale, our partner NeoSoft Tech adds enterprise delivery capacity, attributed accurately. You get the focus of a boutique and the reach of an enterprise.
Credentials
AI for government questions
Is AI safe to use in government?
It can be, when it is built with grounding, guardrails, access controls, audit logging, and human review for sensitive decisions, and when it is documented for the security reviews and authorizations agencies require.
Does AI for government need FedRAMP?
It depends on the system and the data. Cloud services handling federal data typically need an authorization path, so the architecture, hosting, and controls should be planned for that from the start.
Can a small business build AI for federal agencies?
Yes. Sthenos is an EDWOSB and WOSB-certified US firm (NAICS 541511, active on SAM.gov) that builds AI for the public sector, with enterprise-scale delivery available through the NeoSoft partnership.
What is the best first AI project for an agency?
Usually document processing or a grounded knowledge assistant: high volume, clear value, and a bounded risk profile that is straightforward to govern.
