The products have over 60,000 registered users, more than 20,000 weekly active users, and over 10 million messages exchanged, saving officers an estimated 46% of time spent on administrative tasks.

The lean team of seven built the products through OGP's annual 'Hack for Public Good' hackathon and a product-first, bottom-up development approach, continuously performing applied R&D to evaluate and adopt new LLMs (e.g. GPT-4o, Claude 3.5 Sonnet). All data is kept private within government infrastructure and not logged on cloud service providers.","businessValue":"The Pair suite has over 60,000 registered users, more than 20,000 weekly active users, and over 10 million messages exchanged to date, saving officers an estimated 46% of time spent on administrative tasks.","evidence":{"band":"high"},"sourceUrl":"https://www.undp.org/policy-centre/singapore/blog/pairing-ai-public-sector-impact-singapore","dates":{"publishedAt":"2026-08-15T23:02:13.980Z","publishedAtSource":"ledger","updatedAt":"2026-08-18T10:29:38.521Z"},"license":"Open for reading and citing with a link to https://findausecase.com/use-cases/pairing-with-ai-for-public-sector-impact-in-singapore.
