One sovereign core. Every modern nation needs one secure center: a digital heart connecting its data, its safety operations, and its communications. Government as a Service is that core, built on infrastructure the country owns, operates, and can explain.
The Core
Government as a Service is not a larger deployment of a single product. It is three layers that a nation runs as one system: the encrypted network that carries decisions, the vision layer that produces them, and the private cloud both sit on. Bought together, under one contract and one SLA, on hardware inside the country’s own borders.
End-to-end encrypted messaging, voice, video, channels, and workspaces between ministries and municipalities, user-hosted and federated across independent deployments. It is also the front end through which alerts arrive and Ask IREX answers.
Every camera and sensor the country already operates, unified into one real-time picture on the world's most powerful video analytics platform: the world's first VLM analytics for public safety (StreamVLM™, prompt-defined detectors, beta on selected instances), the broadest set of specialized analytics modules spanning faces, vehicles and traffic, weapons, perimeter, rail and transit, crowds, fire, and camera integrity, and a petabyte-scale instant video search engine.
An entirely open-source stack (Kubernetes, Ceph, Cassandra, Kafka, PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch) on bare metal the nation owns, deployable on-premises, in a private cloud, or fully air-gapped, with no third-party proprietary components required.
Why Government as a Service
A state that cannot inspect the systems running its own safety operations is not sovereign over them. The four commitments below are architectural facts of how the platform is built, not clauses in a contract, and each one is verifiable by the customer rather than asserted by the vendor.
National data, communications, and AI stay owned and operated by the country. No foreign cloud, no vendor data plane, no runtime dependency on the public internet. IREX neither owns nor accesses customer video, events, logs, watchlists, or floor plans, and the infrastructure stack is open source and inspectable end to end.
Sover encrypts every message, workflow, and alert moving between ministries, agencies, and cities, and handles more than 1,000 messages per second across hundreds of thousands of users. It runs on the nation’s own network, and it is source-code licensable and rebrandable.
Before any privacy-sensitive AI action, the operator records the lawful grounds for it: a case file, a court order, a missing-person report. That Case ID follows the action into an append-only, tamper-evident log, exported daily, readable by supervisors and by independent oversight bodies by design.
Detections reach the people authorized to act on them in seconds, not after the fact. Alerts route to command centers, dispatch, and the secure messenger at once, and continuous analytics exports feed national dashboards for heatmaps, trend analysis, and compliance auditing.
Every Level of Governance
National programs fail when they ask a city to hand its data to the capital. Government as a Service runs as a federation instead: national defense, local government, and public-private operators connected on one platform, with each city keeping sovereignty over its own estate. One instance is proven in production at 100,000+ cameras, and the architecture scales linearly to a ceiling of 1,000,000 cameras and 100,000 users without re-architecture.
Aggregates the intelligence that only makes sense nationally: borders and customs, critical infrastructure, cross-jurisdiction cases, and threats that arrive from outside.
Each city runs its own estate and its own real-time crime center on the same platform, sized to its own camera count and its own operators.
A municipality decides what it shares upward to the national tier and sideways to its neighbors. Federation is a choice each tier makes, not a condition of joining.
Cameras, databases, analytics modules, alerts, and results appear only for the roles that need them. Configuration is restricted to the top role, and every change is logged.
From Detection to Decision
The point of joining the vision layer to the communications layer is that a detection does not stop at a screen nobody is watching. It reaches the agency that can act, inside an encrypted channel, with the evidence attached and the accountability already recorded.
A face on a watchlist, a plate flagged in a case, a weapon, a crowd forming, a person on the tracks. The platform recognizes only pre-registered people and vehicles, and it cannot identify or track random individuals in public spaces.
The alert, the frame, and the context travel through the encrypted channel to the agencies authorized to receive it, across departmental and jurisdictional lines, without leaving the national network.
Detections are signals for a human to verify. No response runs autonomously. The verification, the decision, and the responder assignment are all written to the audit trail against the same Case ID.
A national platform is only worth building if the people inside it are safer and the state is more accountable, both at once. That is the whole design brief.
The Outcome
Data, AI, and infrastructure remain nationally owned and nationally operated.
Real-time detection, faster response, and measurable reduction in the incidents that matter.
Ethical governance, auditability, and a record citizens and oversight bodies can inspect.
A secure digital economy, resilient infrastructure, and domestic capability that compounds.
Precedent
Government as a Service is assembled from parts already in production, not from a roadmap. These are the national-scale deployments; the full eight-country footprint is on the company page.
National Police, plus the Lima and Miraflores multi-city command centers, with a large-scale national rollout in partnership with Visium. Peru’s first real smart city, and airport security.
The first nationwide multi-camera traffic-enforcement deployment, including Ulaanbaatar.
A national smart-city program running the full IREX module catalog.
Every Premier League national stadium, on banned-fan watchlists and crowd management.
Ethics at the Core
The technology to watch a country has existed for years. The accountability to deserve that power has not, which is why IREX builds the constraints first: narrow limits on who can be recognized at all, permission-driven access, bias measurement and disclosure, a non-erasable audit trail, and the Case ID mandate that binds every high-risk AI action to its documented lawful reason. It is designed to support GDPR and CCPA compliance and aligns with the EU AI Act, the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, and the FBI CJIS Security Policy.

No nation buys a national platform in one motion, and none should. A program starts with an anchor deployment that proves the outcome on real conditions in one city or one agency, then extends estate by estate under the same platform, the same contract, and the same SLA. Six to twelve months from first qualified conversation to steady-state operations for the IREX platform, three to nine for Sover, with the procurement route rather than engineering setting the pace.
Where a state needs the technology outright, and not only the service, Government as a Service can be delivered on a full technology transfer: an exclusive perpetual source-code license for the territory, deployment from a data center of your choice, an optional AI Competence Center staffed by your own people, and five years or more of support and training.
