AI for government: private AI for municipalities and central government
Public information deserves public control. Amaii offers a private AI solution that runs entirely within your own EU environment — BIO and GDPR compliant, with source references for every answer. So you keep grip, transparency and democratic accountability.
The problem: public data does not belong on US servers
Civil servants work daily with sensitive information: citizen records, policy documents, legal advice, inspection reports and official correspondence. This data should remain under Dutch jurisdiction — not on servers outside the EU.
In practice, however, public AI tools such as ChatGPT are often used to “quickly summarise something”. That is a risk: every prompt can contain sensitive information that is then processed outside the EU and possibly used to train models.
At the same time, the pressure to work more efficiently is growing: Woo requests pile up, files get larger and citizens expect faster turnaround times. AI can be a huge accelerator in that — but only if it happens securely, transparently and controllably.
The solution: private AI under your own control
Amaii offers a private AI solution that runs entirely within the own environment of your administrative body. The language model unlocks internal documents, files, policy documents and case law in one searchable knowledge system — with direct source references for every answer.
The official or policy officer always remains in the lead. Amaii supports and accelerates, but never decides. That is our core principle: AI as a tool, the human in the lead.
- 100% private: data never leaves your environment
On-premise or private cloud under Dutch jurisdiction. No external APIs, no data sharing.
- Source references for every answer
The AI model shows which file, policy document or article forms the basis — essential for accountability.
- BIO, GDPR and AI Act proof
Designed in accordance with the Baseline Information Security for Government, GDPR and the EU AI Act.
- No training on government data
The model is not trained on your files. Public information remains public property.
How government organisations use Amaii
From municipalities to ministries and executive bodies: AI can add value in many ways in the public domain, provided it happens securely and transparently. A selection of the possibilities:
- Supporting Woo requests
Quickly find and summarise relevant documents, with full source reference per passage.
- Searching policy documents and case law
Policy officers find comparable cases, articles and previous decisions in seconds.
- Summarising files and council papers
A concise overview of long files, motions or inspection reports immediately.
- Onboarding new civil servants
New employees can ask the knowledge system directly — productive faster.
- Internal knowledge sharing between departments
Guidelines, work instructions and best practices findable without endlessly searching in SharePoint.
Why sovereignty and transparency are non-negotiable
The government works with information that touches the core of the rule of law: personal data of citizens, administrative decisions, enforcement files and policy trade-offs. When this data flows via public AI tools to servers outside the EU, you not only lose control — you also undermine citizens' trust.
With Amaii that is impossible by definition. The language model runs entirely within your own shielded environment. There is no connection to external servers, no data sharing with third parties, and no possibility for the model to “learn” from government data.
In addition, Amaii is fully prepared for the EU AI Act, which requires transparency, explainability and human oversight — core conditions for responsible use of AI in government.
For which government organisations is Amaii suitable?
Amaii is designed for administrative bodies that work with sensitive data and must be able to account publicly. Think of:
- Municipalities and provinces
- Ministries and central government parts
- Executive bodies (ZBOs and agencies)
- Safety regions and municipal health services (GGDs)
- Water authorities
- Regulators and inspectorates
From small municipalities to large executive bodies: Amaii scales with the size and complexity of your organisation, with separate workspaces per department or team.
Humans stay in the lead
AI in the public domain rightly raises questions. Can a machine make policy? At Amaii the answer is clear: no, and it must not. The AI model is a tool that retrieves information, summarises and shows source references. The official interprets, weighs and decides.
By showing source references for every answer, you can always check where the information comes from. No “black box", but a transparent system that enables accountability and lawfulness — essential in a democracy.
