Artificial intelligence
Adopting AI without compromising your data or your public-service standards
An organisational approach to AI for public authorities and cross-border bodies: framed uses, ready-to-use solutions with our partner Yassistant, and your data processed within the European Union.
What AI is for
Giving staff time back for what makes public service valuable
Productivity gains on repetitive tasks free up time. That time goes back to the projects the organisation serves. The aim is a public service that works better, not a headcount exercise.
- Less time on repetitive tasks. Drafting routine documents, sorting requests, searching large volumes of text.
- More time for projects. For contact with users and partners, and for the work that needs human judgement.
- One question for every use: what time does it give back, and what is that time used for?
Multilingual settings
Where several languages meet
Cross-border bodies, European programmes and international partnerships work in several languages every day. That is where AI can save the most time, and where care matters most.
- Translating and summarising programme and project documents.
- Producing and aligning bilingual or multilingual documents: statutes, agreements, minutes.
- Searching legal and technical texts across several languages and legal systems.
- Preparing notes and briefings for multilingual steering bodies.
A person always has the last word
Any text with legal or official effect is checked by someone who masters both the languages and the legal context.
Use cases are selected with you, service by service, after analysis of the data involved and of the risks.
Our approach
Three steps to adopt AI
A technology that touches organisations, jobs and data: our ground before it is a question of tools.
Controlled uses
We list with you the useful uses and the risks, then rank them by the time they give back.
Ready-to-use solutions
With our partner Yassistant, we put in place the solutions selected, for the uses you retain.
Adoption by staff
Training, rules of use, dialogue with staff, and measurement of what actually changes.
Our commitments
Data and public-service standards first
Our commitment: processing within the EU
We undertake to process the data of your services only within the European Union.
Personal data protected
Solutions designed to respect the GDPR and the confidentiality of the data of staff and users.
People stay in the loop
Generated or translated content is reviewed by a person before any official use.
Uses framed by the rules
We help you frame each use in the light of the applicable rules, including the GDPR and the EU AI Act.
