About Us
GovAsk was built to help government agencies ask natural questions of their datasets, trust the answers, and make evidence-based decisions. This page is a short overview of who we are and where we’re going.
Who We Are
We are a multidisciplinary team of developers, data scientists, and policy thinkers passionate about making public sector data more usable and trustworthy.
Our Vision
GovAsk aims to become the go-to interface for government decision-making, where every answer is transparent, auditable, and accurate. Our long-term vision is to embed trust and accountability into every interaction with government datasets.
Roadmap
- Short term: Improve dataset connectors and add more pre-built queries.
- Medium term: Introduce customizable trust scoring and role-based access control.
- Long term: Position GovAsk as a secure AI data layer across multiple government departments.
Our Values
- Accuracy: 90% is not enough — answers must be exact.
- Transparency: every answer comes with an audit trail.
- Ethics: strong commitment to privacy, bias prevention, and accountability.
- Collaboration: built to work across departments, not in silos.
