About AI for Impact

Government agencies know their problems. Our AI for Impact Fellows can create tools to solve them. The AI For Impact program brings these teams together to understand the problem thoroughly, build a practical solution, and deploy it successfully, with close guidance from experienced faculty.

We have a growing portfolio of products already in use, each one designed around a specific challenge: benefits access, procurement workflows, institutional knowledge management, and public communication.
