Kofile launches Kleio

Kofile said Wednesday it launched Kleio, an artificial intelligence platform built to help government offices search, classify, and serve public records. (kofile.com) Kofile’s product page says Kleio sits on top of existing records systems rather than replacing them, and adds document classification, extraction, multilingual search, chat, summarization, and a public self-service portal. (kofile.com) The Dallas company said in a December 2, 2025 launch announcement that Kleio was built on Amazon Web Services and would begin onboarding early adopters in the first quarter of 2026, with broader availability planned for the second quarter. (kofile.com) Government records work is still dominated by paper files, microfilm, portable document format files, and older software that can be hard to search and harder to share. Kofile said Kleio is aimed at that backlog, especially in land records, court documents, vital records, and historical archives. (kofile.com) Kofile says it already works with more than 3,000 government organizations and officials, selling preservation, digitization, and public-access tools to clerks, courts, assessors, city managers, and law-enforcement agencies. Kleio extends that business from scanning and storage into search and question-answering. (kofile.com, 20543869.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net) The sales pitch is security as much as speed. Kofile says Kleio includes encrypted data pipelines, role-based access controls, audit trails, and government-grade cloud infrastructure for records that can carry legal, financial, or historical weight. (kofile.com, kofile.com) That matters in public-sector procurement because agencies buying generative artificial intelligence tools often need cloud services cleared for government workloads. Amazon Web Services says Amazon Bedrock is available in both United States GovCloud regions, and some Bedrock models in GovCloud received Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program High and Department of Defense Impact Level 4 and 5 approvals in June 2025. (docs.aws.amazon.com, aws.amazon.com) Amazon Web Services has also said content processed by Amazon Bedrock and Amazon SageMaker in GovCloud is not used to improve base models and is not shared with model providers. That addresses one of the first questions records custodians ask when vendors propose artificial intelligence on sensitive documents. (aws.amazon.com) Kofile’s own description makes clear the harder part is not the chatbot. The platform depends on ingesting records from physical collections and digital sources, extracting metadata, and preserving permissions so staff and residents can find documents without breaking chain-of-custody or access rules. (kofile.com, kofile.com) Kleio’s launch shows where this market is moving: away from simple digitization contracts and toward systems that promise usable answers from old records, inside the security boundaries government buyers already recognize.
