Pair is GovTech Singapore's LLM assistant for civil servants — drafting, research and analysis — with 60,000+ registered users across 100+ agencies, 20,000+ weekly active users and an estimated 46% time saved on admin tasks.
Pair is a generative-AI assistant built by GovTech Singapore for public officers, contextualised for government use to speed up drafting, research and idea generation, and sits alongside LaunchPad, a whole-of-government platform for experimenting with AI.
Objectives
The tool aims to enable safe, scaled internal adoption of generative AI across the Singapore public service, backed by GovTech's central capability and guardrails.
Activities
GovTech built and rolled out the assistant centrally, with guardrails, expanding registration and usage across government agencies over time.
Results
Within two months of launch it had 11,000+ users across 100+ agencies; it has since grown to over 60,000 registered users, 20,000+ weekly active users and 10 million-plus messages, with officers reporting an estimated 46% reduction in time spent on administrative tasks.
Conclusions
Pair is presented as a strong model for safe, scaled internal generative-AI adoption in government.
