NEW Introducing Darwin Finch

The First AI Assistant Built for Public-Sector AI Governance

Ask any question about your AI program. Investigate across tools, users, and time. Turn any answer into a designed report that sends itself. All inside Darwin, grounded in your agency’s live data.

Instant Answers to Any AI Governance Question

Every AI governance platform holds enormous volumes of data: every prompt, tool, account, upload, alert, and enforcement decision. But reaching that data has always meant exports, dashboards, and days of manual work.
Finch replaces all of that with a single conversation.

Data stays within Darwin

From Question to Answer to Report,
in One Conversation

Finch gives any Darwin user a new way to interact with the entire platform, connected to every prompt, tool, account, alert, and enforcement decision in your agency.
Ask

Ask Darwin Anything About Your AI Program

Finch answers from your agency’s live Darwin data — never from a model’s general knowledge or a pre-built dashboard view.
Ask about:
  • Adoption patterns across departments
  • Shadow AI trends over time
  • Specific user and tool activity
  • Policy coverage and enforcement gaps
  • Risk and alert patterns
Policy Enforcement

Investigate Across Tools, Users, and Time

Follow-ups carry context, so a single question becomes a line of inquiry, not a new query.
A conversation can move from “how much shadow AI do we have?” to “which users?” to “what did they upload?” without starting over.

Reports That
Send Themselves

Any report Finch produces can be scheduled on any cadence to any email address, internal or external, no Darwin login required. Darwin regenerates each report on fresh data and delivers it automatically, with every run retained for period-over-period comparison.
  • The Mayor’s weekly briefing
    Every Monday
  • The CIO’s monthly summary
    1st of the month
  • The quarterly compliance update
    Every quarter
All of it happens on its own.
  • Purpose-built for government with security standards designed for the public sector
  • All data stays inside the Darwin platform — no external AI tool access
  • Grounded in your live Darwin data, not the internet’s

An Assistant You Can Actually Trust
With Government Data

Finch isn’t a general chatbot bolted onto Darwin. It’s an assistant that can only be useful because it has the data: your agency’s live governance data, and nothing else.
Every answer is grounded in records the organization owns and governs, and your data never leaves Darwin. Governance records aren’t sent to any outside AI tool; they stay exactly where the compliance obligations already apply.
For public-sector agencies, that’s a security position, not a convenience.
Trusted by Government Leaders
“Darwin is to AI what McAfee is to your internet security. It helps staff understand that they have guardrails on their AI usage within an organization.”
