The General Services Administration has launched USAi, a secure generative artificial intelligence suite designed to help federal agencies experiment with AI tools and accelerate AI adoption.
GSA said Thursday the launch of USAi advances the priorities in the White House’s America’s AI Action Plan, which seeks to strengthen U.S. leadership in AI through coordinated federal action, streamlined adoption and smarter infrastructure.
A panel discussion at the Potomac Officers Club’s 2025 Navy Summit on Aug. 26 will explore generative AI and how it optimizes decision-making within the service branch. Book your spot now at this GovCon networking event!

Expanding Federal Government’s AI Infrastructure Through USAi
To broaden the federal government’s AI infrastructure, USAi provides a shared services platform that enables agencies to test and assess emerging technologies without duplicating resources. USAi provides a cloud-based environment that helps agencies speed up AI experimentation and build interoperable tools that align with federal priorities.
“GSA is proud to be on the frontlines of delivering on President Trump’s call to accelerate AI adoption in government and help empower agencies to deliver enhanced services to the American public,” said Josh Gruenbaum, commissioner of GSA’s Federal Acquisition Service.
“USAi provides a secure and collaborative environment for government employees to explore cutting-edge AI models that will make day-to-day workflows more efficient and help discover innovative solutions prior to making procurement decisions,” added Gruenbaum, a 2025 Wash100 awardee.
Advancing Workforce Readiness With USAi
The USAi platform supports agency-level digital transformation and workforce upskilling. It provides usage analytics and dashboards to help agencies measure maturity, track performance and guide adoption strategies. It also aims to bring chat-based AI, document summarization, code generation and other AI tools to government users.
“The launch of USAi shows how GSA is translating President Trump’s AI strategy into action and accelerating AI adoption across government. USAi will put mission-ready tools directly into the hands of agencies to modernize faster, boost security, and lead globally,” said GSA Deputy Administrator Stephen Ehikian.
