The US government has relaunched America.gov as an AI-powered "digital front door" for federal services, redesigned by Airbnb co-founder and US Chief Design Officer Joe Gebbia, pitched as "the new online home for the United States of America."
- AI answers are sourced exclusively from official federal, state, and local government sites; free, ad-free, no personal data collected, conversations not stored
- Brings 29,000 government websites into one entry point, covering use cases like replacing a Social Security card, matching federal jobs to resumes, and comparing medication costs
- By 2027, it plans to go beyond answers to completing forms and tracking progress
