What changes when it is government & public sector

Rules encode known fraud patterns precisely; models catch the novel ones. Every system worth running uses both, and we are explicit about which is doing what.

In government & public sector, procurement, data sovereignty and accessibility obligations shape the architecture before anything else. That single fact reshapes how fraud & anomaly detection has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.

The workload we are most often asked to take on first is records digitisation, usually integrated against legacy record systems. We start from the constraint, not the capability, what the system must never do, who signs off, and what happens when it is wrong.

Multi-model by default, so a provider outage is a routing decision rather than an incident. We hand over with runbooks, tests and a team that knows how it works, not a dependency.

Questions from this sector

Can AI systems be procured under GeM?

Yes, and we structure deliverables to fit standard procurement categories and evaluation criteria.

Does it work in regional languages?

It has to. Public services in India are multilingual by obligation, and we build for that rather than adding translation later.

How do you reduce false positives?

By tuning the threshold against your actual investigation capacity, adding context features, and feeding confirmed outcomes back into the model. The goal is the alert volume your team can genuinely work.

Can it explain its decisions?

Yes, feature-level explanations on every flag, which investigators need for case files and regulators expect to see.

How fast does it score?

Real-time within a payment authorisation window where required; batch where the use case allows it and the cost is lower.
