Challenges we solve

Sound familiar?

Knowledge buried in silos

Documents scattered across SharePoint, intranets, and archives — your agents waste hours finding answers that should take seconds.

Shadow AI is already here

Staff use ChatGPT to fill the gap. Sensitive citizen data leaks to third-party servers. You have no visibility, no control.

Too complex to deploy in-house

Building sovereign AI from scratch requires expertise and budget most local governments don't have — and can't justify.

Three pillars

Everything a local authority needs — out of the box

A turnkey AI platform

Pre-configured assistants, automatic document ingestion, and a ready-to-use interface — so your teams can start in days, not months.

The QAnswer difference

Where generalist AI stops, QAnswer begins

AI built for public service — not a consumer chatbot stretched beyond its purpose.

Sovereign, contextualised data

Your public and internal data, processed on your infrastructure and never shared with a third-party AI.

Sourced, traceable answers

Every answer cites its sources: trust and verifiability are built into the platform.

An assistant that knows your authority

It reasons with your methods, your constraints and your reference frameworks — not generalities.

Upskilling your public officers

Build assistants, automate tasks and enable cross-department collaboration.

Use cases
