Serve residents faster — with the staff you already have.
Anchor Core is a secure AI operating system for local government. It answers residents around the clock, moves cases and records without the backlog, and takes the repetitive load off your people — so a small department can do the work of a large one.
What your county or city gets
Turn on only what you need — start with one department and grow.
Resident services, 24/7
An AI front desk that answers residents day and night — questions, forms, status, routing — in plain language, in English and Spanish, so calls and walk-ins drop and nothing falls through the cracks.
Case & records management
Intake to resolution in one place — every request, case, and document tracked, searchable, and never re-typed. The backlog stops growing.
Permits, licensing & inspections
Applications, reviews, fees, and scheduling handled online — residents and businesses self-serve, staff approve, and the paper trail is automatic.
Staff automation & internal ops
The repetitive work — routing, reminders, drafting, data entry, reporting — carried by the platform, so your team spends its hours on people, not paperwork.
Transparency & public records
Public-records requests logged and answered on time, with a clean audit trail and dashboards leadership and the public can trust.
Grants & procurement support
Track grant opportunities and deadlines, and keep the documentation a compliant engagement requires — organized, not scattered.
Why local governments choose Anchor Core
Pilot-first, low-risk
Start with a small paid pilot in a single department. Prove the value on real work in weeks — then expand on your timeline, not a giant all-or-nothing rollout.
Built for public trust
Least-privilege access, tenant isolation, and provable server-side enforcement. Your residents' data stays yours — never sold, never used to train outside models.
Veteran-owned & mission-driven
Founded by a medically retired Coast Guard veteran whose family helped settle this state. A tenth of the company's net is tithed, and civilian estate & family tools are given at cost or free — this is a company built to serve.
A real person answers
You work directly with the founder. No call center, no runaround — a straight conversation about what your county actually needs.
💡 Your county can fund this without a single new tax.
Here is the part most counties don't realize — and the reason this conversation is easier than you'd think:
- ✓Texas law requires every commissioners court to maintain a county Law Library Fund (Tex. Loc. Gov't Code §323.023(a)), funded by the fund's share of the local consolidated civil filing fee under Chapter 135. The money is already collected and already budgeted.
- ✓That statute says what the fund may buy — and §323.023(b)(4) expressly authorizes “establishing and maintaining a self-help center to provide resources to county residents representing themselves in legal matters.”
- ✓Anchor Core is exactly that self-help center, delivered electronically: estate documents and family-court self-help, guided step by step, free to every resident as an official county resource.
- ✓Every county license is a fixed annual fee on a one-year renewable term, priced to stay under the $100,000 competitive-bid threshold (Tex. Loc. Gov't Code §262.023, raised from $50,000 effective September 1, 2025) — from $3,300/yr for rural counties to $95,000/yr for the largest, all-inclusive. No new taxes. No bid process. No setup fee for founding counties.
⚓ The mission is every county in Texas — all 254. The counties fund it; the residents never pay.
Straight talk on procurement & security
We believe in being honest with the people who serve the public. Government engagements require the proper procurement vehicles and security posture, and we scope those with you openly:
- ✓Purchasing: we work within your county/state process — cooperative purchasing, sole-source where appropriate for a pilot, or a standard RFP/RFI response.
- ✓Security & accreditation: StateRAMP / FedRAMP alignment is on our roadmap; today we run on hardened, isolated infrastructure and will meet your data-handling and residency requirements for a pilot's scope.
- ✓Veteran-owned small business — we hold no set-aside certification today, and we will never claim one we don't have.
- ✓We will never overstate a certification we don't yet hold — if a requirement isn't met, we'll tell you plainly and show you the path.
Let's talk about your county.
Tell us one thing you'd like to solve. Even a small pilot in one department can change what your team is able to do — and it costs you nothing to have the conversation.
“I served close to eleven years in the Coast Guard, and I built Anchor Core to help institutions serve people better — not to sell them shelfware. Give me one real problem in one department, and let me show you what this does. — Rob Holloway, Founder”
