Why this exists
agenticgov.eu is an independent architecture for public-sector leaders and engineers: how citizens can delegate bounded actions to AI agents while public services retain final authority.
Agents could make public services easier to use: by voice, on the move, through a personal assistant or a humanoid helping with everyday tasks. People should not need to learn the internal structure of government to get things done.
That future needs a precise answer to a simple question: who authorised this action? This site brings together my writing on AI readiness, spec-driven engineering and public-service delegation. The argument can be read in full, followed through an architecture, and tested against a small, deterministic service boundary.
The goal is practical, proactive help with public services, while people retain control and public authorities remain responsible for the decisions they make.
A legal foundation
Estonia’s Administrative Procedure Act gains § 7¹, “automaatne haldusmenetlus” (automated administrative procedure). The amendment enters into force on 1 January 2027; the new provision applies to procedures initiated on or after 1 July 2027.
This provides a relevant legal foundation for the discussion. It is not blanket authority for an agent to act: a citizen’s delegation and an authority’s automated administrative procedure remain distinct. The law preserves conditions for discretionary decisions and the right to personal contact and to be heard.

A European framework
The EU AI Act adds a risk-based framework for AI systems across Europe. For high-risk uses, it sets requirements for risk management, traceability and human oversight. Transparency duties make certain uses of AI visible to the people affected. Requirements apply in phases; not every AI system has the same obligations.
My architectural reading: a trustworthy service needs both a valid mandate and controls suited to its risks. Compliance with AI rules does not itself confer authority to perform a public task.

Estonia’s AI direction
Estonia’s Data and AI White Paper 2024–2030 and AI action plan 2024–2026 set the national policy direction. The official AI roadmap brings those documents together.
The Eesti.ai initiative builds on existing work, developing AI skills and practical adoption across business and the public sector.
The connection I draw is simple: Estonia’s ambition sits within Europe’s safeguards. Turn that ambition into better services through clear mandates, capable institutions and measurable public value. A roadmap guides change; it is not a legal permission to act.
