AI Adoption in Public Sector Finance Is Accelerating
Article content
Public sector finance leaders face mounting pressure as compliance requirements expand, grant programs grow more complex, and staffing shortages persist. They are all pressures that are accelerating AI adoption across the GovTech ecosystem. According to Euna’s State of AI in the Public Sector research report, which surveyed public sector finance and operations leaders, interest in AI is widespread. Still, adoption remains early: 57% of agencies are exploring AI, while only 16% are piloting projects and just 1.6% report broad deployment.
Article content
The research found that public agencies see the greatest near-term value in core processes such as procurement, budgeting, and grant administration, where AI can automate high-volume tasks and support stronger decision-making. More than two-thirds of respondents identified time savings and productivity gains as the primary success metrics, highlighting the opportunity for AI to help public finance staff operate more efficiently.

At the center of Euna’s strategy is Euna AI, an intelligence layer designed specifically for public sector fiscal workflows. It helps finance professionals operate more efficiently by surfacing insights, automating administrative activity, and identifying potential risks earlier. Built on a deep understanding of regulatory environments and government processes, Euna AI integrates directly into existing systems to improve productivity and decision-making without extensive training or disruptive changes.
Article content
Designed for rapid adoption, Euna AI can be used immediately without specialized training or tuning. The intelligence layer enables users to generate reports, analyze fiscal data, and automate repetitive administrative activity while reviewing operational processes for inconsistencies, emerging risks, and compliance gaps. By transforming complex data into actionable insights and reducing routine workload, Euna AI enables public sector professionals to focus on higher-value priorities.

How AI Supports Government Financial Oversight and Accountability
Article content
Because core finance systems underpin government accountability, responsible AI design and oversight are critical. Euna AI is built to augment human expertise rather than replace it. Agency staff remains fully responsible for decisions while the system operates in the background to automate repetitive tasks, surface insights, and flag potential issues earlier.
Article content
Euna AI incorporates human-in-the-loop governance, ensuring that AI-generated recommendations are reviewed and validated by staff. Built with security at its core, Euna AI includes encryption, access controls, and data governance practices aligned with public sector standards, while maintaining full auditability of operational activities.

Euna Solutions Advances AI Strategy Across Leadership, Governance, and Product
Article content
Alongside the launch of Euna AI, Euna Solutions is making significant investments across its AI leadership, governance, and product capabilities. Key components of this strategy include:
Article content
- Formation of the Euna AI Council, a cross-functional leadership group guiding responsible development and ensuring new capabilities align with the operational and regulatory realities of public agencies.
- Expanded AI leadership, including the appointment of senior technology leaders Andrew Stockwell, Vice President of AI, and Tod Ewasko, Vice President of Applied AI and Productivity, who are focused on accelerating the company’s AI roadmap and product development.
- AI-powered grant discovery and research capabilities added through Euna Solutions’ acquisition of GrantExec. These new tools strengthen the Euna Grants platform by helping public agencies identify relevant funding opportunities and align grant strategies with community priorities.
Article content
“Our focus is on making AI genuinely useful for the people doing the work of public finance every day,” said Andrew Stockwell, Vice President of AI at Euna Solutions. “Finance teams are responsible for managing complex budgets, procurement processes, and compliance requirements—often with limited staff and time. We’re applying AI to the tasks that slow teams down today: analyzing financial data, identifying inconsistencies, surfacing risks earlier, and automating routine work so finance leaders can spend less time chasing information and more time making informed decisions.”
