In a significant move to enhance digital transformation (DX) within local governments, Kawaguchi Hiroyuki LLC, based in Ota City, Tokyo, has announced the launch of its AI procurement support service, 'Prokuretech'. This service is now compatible with LGWAN-ASP, a secure network interface for administrative services in Japan. This latest development enables local government staff to access a generative AI management platform directly through LGWAN, addressing an urgent need for a secure AI utilization environment in local government operations. As the interest in generative AI continues to grow among municipalities, ensuring a safe and efficient use of this technology remains a critical issue. The Prokuretech service specifically aims to support local government procurement tasks, acting as a catalyst for the secure and widespread adoption of generative AI across various regions.
What is ‘Prokuretech Backend AI’?
The ‘Prokuretech Backend AI’ is an innovative service built on the Dify platform, which allows for no-code and low-code AI application development. This new offering seamlessly integrates large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, and various external APIs into workflows tailored for local government needs. With this service, municipalities can safely establish and manage chatbot systems and interactive operational support tools using their proprietary data in the LGWAN environment.
Advantages of Using Prokuretech Backend AI on LGWAN-ASP
By leveraging the capabilities of LGWAN-ASP, local governments can facilitate advanced operational implementations. For instance, they can deploy citizen-facing chatbots that provide assistance with various administrative procedures, FAQs, and facility reservations, all within a secure environment. Additionally, Prokuretech enables flexible integration with existing internal and external service systems, allowing for automated processes and optimized workflows without the need for extensive coding.
Such innovations could lead to the emergence of next-generation administrative services, effectively utilizing information resources both from within and outside local governments.
Understanding Dify
Dify is an open-source AI application development platform that simplifies the creation of AI applications through a user-friendly interface. Even users without programming skills can easily develop their own AI solutions. Supporting various AI models, such as ChatGPT and Google Gemini, Dify employs a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) engine that enhances AI responses by sourcing relevant information from external data sources. The platform also allows for straightforward integration with external tools and APIs, contributing to improved efficiency and automation across numerous sectors.
