LangGenius (Dify Developer) Intensifies Provision of AI Agent Development Platform for Public Administration
LangGenius, the developer of the Agentic AI development platform "Dify," is officially launching its services for government agencies and local municipalities. This initiative aims to enable each department to develop and operate specialized AI using a no-code approach, thereby solving challenges in public administration and promoting AI utilization.

In public administration, there is a continuous need to review different business processes for each department in response to institutional changes and evolving resident needs. However, while the introduction of generative AI is progressing in prefectures and designated cities, it remains limited in other municipalities, leading to disparities in AI utilization among local governments.
LangGenius Inc. (Headquarters: Tokyo, Representative Director: Kiji Mardin), which provides the Agentic AI development platform "Dify," is strengthening the provision of an AI development platform for government agencies and local municipalities. This platform enables each department to build and operate business-specific AI under whole-of-government control to address these challenges.
Dify is a platform that allows for the visual design of business workflows and promotes operational efficiency and automation by linking with existing tools and data sources. It offers the flexibility for each division to build and improve AI tailored to their specific tasks, addressing unique on-site issues that cannot be fully covered by common systems, while ensuring operation based on governance.
LangGenius Inc. will continue to expand Dify as a foundation that supports the "implementation and operation" of AI utilization in the public sector, rather than just "proof-of-concept."
Value Dify Provides to the Public Sector:
1. "Citizen Development of AI" Achieved with No-Code
Dify is a platform that allows the construction of business-specific Agentic AI applications without programming. Even business personnel without specialized IT knowledge can develop and improve AI for counter services or document creation support themselves through intuitive drag-and-drop operations.
In the private sector, 100 business personnel without specialized IT knowledge have developed and operated Agentic AI applications themselves (Lion Corporation). There are also cases where AI development that traditionally took three months was shortened to two weeks (Toyota Boshoku Corporation). Similarly, in government agencies, a system can be realized where personnel in each department can build and continuously improve AI specialized for their tasks, without waiting for requests to the information systems department.
2. Government-Grade Security and Governance
Features:
- Multi-workspace: Provides independent environments for each department/division and granular access control.
- Data retention: Available for use in the customer's system environment due to self-hosting.
- SSO/RBAC: Supports Single Sign-On and Role-Based Access Control.
- Audit logs: All operations can be recorded and tracked.
- LLMOps: Monitoring and control of prompt and model usage is possible.
AI can be operated securely in a controlled environment even for tasks involving resident information and administrative data.
3. Anticipated Administrative Business Areas for Utilization
- Counter service support: Automation and standardization of quality for resident inquiries.
- Document creation/review support: Assistance in creating guidelines, notifications, minutes, and document proofreading.
- Policy planning support: Simulation of policy effects based on data analysis.
- Internal knowledge management: Search and reference of business handover information due to personnel changes and internal regulations.
- Enhancement of resident services: Multilingual support, 24-hour inquiry response.
In this situation, the following challenges are becoming apparent in public administration:
- Lack of development resources: Amidst limited AI talent, there is a need to build and operate business-specific Agentic AI applications without specialized development skills.
- Balancing governance and security: In administrative tasks handling resident data, AI operation in a controlled environment is essential.
- Moving beyond PoC: The demand is to transition from mere proof-of-concept experiments to "operable AI" that becomes established in the field.
Expansion of Partner Ecosystem
To date, our company has built partnerships with 8 companies, including NTT Data Corporation, TDSE Corporation, and Ricoh Company, Ltd., and has a track record of introductions to approximately 50 companies in Japan.
For full-scale expansion into the public sector, we will strengthen collaboration with SIs and contract development companies that have knowledge and experience in municipal DX and administrative AI promotion. We will promote collaboration tailored to the strengths, systems, and project characteristics of each partner.
Directions for Collaboration (Examples):
- Strengthening solution proposals and provision tailored to the challenges of government agencies.
- Expanding support systems that consider phases from introduction to operation and improvement.
- Technical and organizational enablement to promote utilization in administrative tasks.
Details of collaboration will be adjusted as needed after individual discussions with relevant parties. For inquiries regarding partnerships, please contact the window at the end of this press release.
