No hype AI tooling and virtual API keys for Public Sector Success
Apexti modernizes public sector legacy systems by integrating or replacing existing tools using AI. We help organizations manage the core tension in AI adoption: balancing rigid organizational structures with the flexibility needed for innovation, particularly in public sector areas marked by high administrative burdens, data sensitivity, and a desire to accelerate AI adoption. Apexti's solutions remove the barriers between the technical teams and the embedding of AI in operational departments.
Apexti accomplishes through two primary product offerings, Toolbelt the control plane for AI tooling and Subkeys for API key virtualization.
Toolbelt bridges old and new systems by connecting to a wide range of tools, facilitating integrations that consolidate fragmented legacy infrastructures with AI agents and assistants. This accessibility aids workforce shifts, enabling employees to transition from manual tasks to strategic roles like service innovation.
A prime use case is administrative workflow automation in Government Operations. Toolbelt enables AI agents to integrate and control tools like HR systems (e.g., Workday APIs), financial platforms (e.g., Oracle), and email/Slack for automating paperwork, data entry, and compliance checks. For instance, an agent could bundle multiple APIs to process procurement requests, apply restrictions to sensitive data, and retain context via built-in memory for audits. This automation redirects efforts to citizen-serving initiatives, easing staff shortages by maximizing human potential.
Subkeys improves security, visibility, and control of API through virtualization of the keys themselves, similar in concept to virtual credit cards or better yet a smart door lock. Rather than giving someone a copy of your key, you can give them a code (virtual key) that has certain restrictions built in and gain better logging of when they use it. With the advent of AI agents the need for virtualized keys has become paramount because of their nature to hallucinate or act unexpectedly.
A core benefit of Apexti's offerings is preventing vendor lock-in. Unlike proprietary platforms that bind agencies to one provider, Apexti enables seamless switching between AI models and vendors without custom rebuilds or excessive re-engineering costs. This promotes a competitive ecosystem, allowing public entities to adopt new technologies as they emerge—such as advanced LLMs for enhanced performance—while ensuring interoperability across tools and data sources. In resource-limited settings, this flexibility minimizes long-term risks, encourages innovation, and keeps AI investments adaptable.
Together, these tools foster resilient operations delivering agile, citizen-centric services.
With Apexti, organizations unify or augment legacy systems with modern AI, automate routine tasks, and support data-driven decisions, enabling agencies to achieve efficiency with minimal disruption.
Working with Apexti supports White House OMB memorandums like M-25-21, which accelerates AI adoption through innovation and governance, and its companion M-25-22, Driving Efficient Acquisition of Artificial Intelligence in Government, issued April 3, 2025, focusing on procurement updates, American-made AI prioritization, and privacy protections.
