Carahsoft to bring Atolio's ai-enabled search platform to government customers.

Carahsoft to bring Atolio's ai-enabled search platform to government customers. As agencies adopt platforms to advance secure knowledge access, these efforts align with broader government digital transformation priorities. Attend the 2026 Digital Transformation Summit on April 22 to join leaders as they discuss emerging technologies, including AI-driven solutions shaping mission operations. Sign up today to reserve your spot at this timely event. How will Carahsoft support Atolio under the partnership? Carahsoft said Thursday it will serve as Atolio's Master Government Aggregator to expand access to the latter's enterprise search platform through its reseller network and contract vehicles, including NASA's Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement V, IT Enterprise Solutions - Software 2, National Association of State Procurement Officials ValuePoint and OMNIA Partners contracts. "Carahsoft, alongside our reseller partners, is pleased to add Atolio to our portfolio of innovative AI solutions," said Natalie Gregory, vice president for open source and DevSecOps solutions at Carahsoft. "This partnership allows our shared government customers to access a secure, scalable search platform that addresses the critical need for data sovereignty and mission-critical intelligence." What is Atolio? Atolio provides a self-hosted enterprise search and knowledge discovery platform designed for organizations operating in security-sensitive and regulated environments. The platform uses retrieval-augmented generation to deliver permission-aware insights from internal data sources and supports document-level access controls at the index layer. It offers a unified workspace that combines search and conversational AI capabilities. "By partnering with Carahsoft, we are providing agencies with a way to modernize knowledge access and leverage AI-powered search - all while maintaining absolute control over their data and ensuring that information is delivered to the right people in seconds, not days," said David Lanstein, co-founder and CEO of Atolio. What are Carahsoft's other public sector AI tech partnerships? Carahsoft has partnered with multiple technology providers to expand the delivery of AI-enabled tech offerings to public sector customers, including its agreement with Hupside for the latter's Original Intelligence platform and partnership with Lumana to provide an AI-powered video security platform for government customers. The company has teamed up with RAD Security to distribute an AI-driven cloud detection and response platform across agencies and worked with Dataminr to give the public sector access to an AI-powered threat intelligence tool.
