The future of public service hinges on two things: accelerating mission outcomes and empowering the public sector workforce. With budget constraints and rising citizen expectations, government leaders can no longer wait for innovation—they must create it.
We surveyed eight industries as part of our Return On Investment of AI Report, and found that among public sector respondents who report productivity gains from gen AI, nearly half (46%) say their productivity has at least doubled. And 42% of public sector respondents report their organization has deployed more than 10 AI agents. This is a new era and the public sector is helping lead it.
We believe that intelligent, mission specific agents are the future – and will help accelerate discovery, automate complex tasks, and break down data silos. This is the core principle behind our bold campaign, #100DaysOfAgents.
Reimagine your mission: From inspiration to action
We launched our #100DaysOfAgents campaign 100 days prior to our Google Public Sector Summit, to show real-world examples of AI in action. On our Google Public Sector Linkedin page, we challenged public sector leaders to change the question from “what if?” to “how do we build this?”
Through this campaign, we aimed to demonstrate exactly how AI can empower specific public sector roles and agencies in this new era of innovation.
- AI agents can help provide veterans and their families with easy access to the benefits, healthcare, and support services they’ve earned.
- AI agents can help translate dense medical diagnoses into easy-to-understand information about treatment options and clinical trials.
- AI agents can help biomedical research by simplifying analysis of complex data using secure and scalable computing power to make life-changing discoveries.
- AI agents can help break down complex data, enable effective collaboration, and make it easier to stay ahead of threats to keep our communities safe.
Mission District: Where inspiration meets agent prototypes
The campaign culminated at our interactive “Mission District” activation at the Google Public Sector Summit on October 29th, 2025 in Washington D.C. After inviting the attendees to imagine the possibilities online, attendees were able to walk through a physical showcase filled with dozens of AI agent use cases, ideas, and inspiration. Via self-serve Agent builder stations, hundreds of leaders from across government and education were able to build custom AI agents that were tailored to their specific challenges.
