From files and registers to intelligent, AI-native public services.
Citizens expect services at UPI speed, every rupee of a scheme has to reach the right person, tenders are evaluated
under vigilance scrutiny, and the DPDP Act changes how personal data is handled. The answer runs across the whole
of government — from how a grievance is heard to how a fund is released and audited.
SCIKIQ is the governed data and AI platform that helps
departments, PSUs and cities make that shift, one value-chain domain at a time.

The story in six chapters
How a public body becomes AI-native — and where each part of this site fits
The pressure
Seven forces reshaping public services
Government organised around departments and files — a scheme MIS here, a treasury system there, a tender committee
with a folder of bids — now has to deliver decisions that cross all of them. The bodies pulling ahead treat data as
public infrastructure and AI as a supervised capability, not a set of pilots. These are the pressures they are responding to.
Citizens
Expectations set by UPI and DigiLocker
Citizens who pay instantly and carry verified documents on their phones expect certificates, licences and grievance replies to be just as quick — and in their own language.
With SCIKIQ: grievance triage and routing, multilingual drafting and service-timeline tracking.
Targeting
Every rupee to the right beneficiary
Direct benefit transfer moved money to bank accounts; the hard part now is the list. Duplicates, ineligible entries and failed payments are found late and fixed by hand.
With SCIKIQ: beneficiary deduplication, eligibility checks and payment-failure analysis — an officer decides every case.
Revenue
Own revenue has to grow
States and cities need more of their own revenue — GST, property tax, stamps, fees — while assessment, collection and treasury data sit in different systems.
With SCIKIQ: revenue-gap analytics, inspection risk scoring and arrears prioritisation.
Procurement
Transparent, defensible procurement
GeM and e-procurement portals digitised buying, but evaluation is still manual: long tender documents, scanned bids and comparative statements typed under vigilance scrutiny.
With SCIKIQ: requirement extraction, page-linked bid comparison and compliance checks — the committee decides.
Accountability
Every number has to be defended
Audit paras, RTI requests, outcome budgets and the DPDP Act all ask the same thing: where did this number, this decision and this personal data come from — and who saw it?
With SCIKIQ: lineage, consent and access logs behind every report, and audit replies assembled with the evidence.
Technology
Departmental silos and scanned files
Each department, scheme and PSU runs its own system; much of the record is still scanned paper in several languages. Every new dashboard starts with another data request letter.
With SCIKIQ: one governed data fabric, with GenAI and OCR turning files into structured, usable data.
Governance
AI that affects citizens must be safe and fair
The IndiaAI mission is expanding public AI capacity, and AI that touches an entitlement, a penalty or a tender has to be explainable, supervised and auditable. An officer must always own the decision.
With SCIKIQ: agent governance — autonomy levels, approvals, evaluations and a kill switch.
Every pressure lands somewhere on the value chain.
The response isn't one portal or one model — it is data and AI applied domain by domain, from the citizen's grievance to the audit para, on one governed platform.
Serving citizens, spending and controlling public money, delivering on the ground, and the data foundation underneath
— the same chain for a ministry, a PSU or a city, with different emphasis. Select a domain to see the data it runs

Citizen services & grievance redressal
Citizens who pay by UPI and carry documents in DigiLocker expect a certificate, a licence or an answer to a grievance just as fast — in their own language. Grievances still arrive across portals, call centres, letters and social media, and are routed by hand.

Personal data masked before any text reaches a model
Benefits must reach the right person, once, on time. Beneficiary lists are built from many registers, duplicates and ineligible entries are found late, and failed or returned payments sit in queues nobody owns.
GST, property tax, stamps, excise, mining royalties, fees and user charges are collected through different systems. Under-assessment, arrears and mismatches show up long after the money should have arrived.
Tender documents run to hundreds of pages, bids arrive as scanned PDFs, and comparative statements are typed by hand under vigilance scrutiny. GeM and CPPP made procurement digital; evaluation is still mostly manual.
Funds move from the centre to states, departments, agencies and vendors, and utilisation certificates are chased by letter. Thousands of court cases and arbitrations against government carry financial exposure nobody can total, and audit queries take months of document hunting.

MIS that answers the minister, the law officer and the auditor from the same numbers
Water, waste, roads, lighting and building permissions run on separate systems and field teams. Command-and-control centres show the city on screens, but complaints and assets are still inspected and fixed on paper.
PSUs, development-finance institutions and defence organisations answer to a board, a ministry and often the market at once. Operations, finance and procurement data sit in separate ERPs and units, and targets, readiness and board packs are compiled by hand every quarter.
India Stack — Aadhaar-based services, UPI, DigiLocker — changed what citizens expect. The DPDP Act 2023 changes how personal data must be handled, and AI that touches citizens has to be safe, fair and explainable.
One governed platform, with the public sector built in
Nine service lines that advise, build, transform and run — delivered on three pieces of SCIKIQ IP, so
departments, PSUs and cities start from working components rather than a blank page.
SCIKIQ Agent Factory · supervised digital workforce
How agentic operations work
In government, agents prepare and officials decide. Agents read, classify, check and draft; anything that affects
a citizen's entitlement, a penalty or a tender award goes to a named officer, and nothing happens off the record.
A grievance arrivesIllustrative
READ · LANGUAGE & TOPIC
MASK · PERSONAL DATA
ROUTE · OFFICE & PRIORITY
DECIDE · OFFICER REPLIES
Officials own every decision
The agent reads the grievance, masks personal data, finds the responsible office and scheme rule, sets a
priority and drafts a reply. The grievance officer edits, approves or reassigns it — against the
citizen-charter timeline.
Configurable starting points for tenders, grievances, legal work and finance — plus cross-industry accelerators configured to government data, rules and controls.
Accelerator · Cases & arbitration against government
For government legal work: every case by court, status, outcome,
category, advocate and financial exposure, with ageing and pendency alerts — plus arbitration analytics,
a highlights report and closed-loop action tracking.
Specialist agents read a tender end to end: they extract requirements and eligibility criteria, check
compliance, research the knowledge base with citations and assess risk — under an orchestrator, with
role-based access and approval limits.

Bid Extractor
Accelerator · Bids to a comparative statement
Turns vendor bid PDFs — including scans, through OCR — into structured vendor details and
line items with unit prices, quantities and totals. Every value links back to the page it came from, and
evaluators can question the bid in chat.

Grievance Triage
Accelerator · Classify, prioritise & route
A complaints-triage engine: frustration and impact scoring,
in-scope classification, four priority levels with same-day escalation for the most critical, and a
human-in-the-loop review screen — with personal data masked first.

Supervised hours = cases × (1 − straight-through share) × review minutes ÷ 60. Hours saved = manual − supervised.
FTE = hours saved ÷ 150. Cost saved = hours saved × cost per hour (× 12 for a year), shown in lakh and crore.

Advise · Data & AI maturity assessment
Where are you on the maturity curve?
Our assessment scores 12 capability layers — from the secure AI gateway and data fabric to ontology,
context engineering, agents and governance — against five stages, using evidence rather than opinion.
MIT CISR found enterprises at stages 3–4 perform well above their industry average financially, while those at stages 1–2 perform below it.
