This is a searchable catalogue of AI tools used in and by governments. It is based on the Public Sector Tech Watch dataset of digital tools used in the EU, which we curated to focus on AI tools and the applications that we thought were most relevant to South Africa. We will update this document as we find new local and global applications of AI in the public sector that we think are relevant to South Africa, and the last update was in June 2025. The methodology and code used in compiling this data is described in our git repository, as well as a brief discussion of its limitations.
