This week, we’re heading to Atlanta for the 2nd Annual State AI Officers Summit.

The summit brings together leaders from state, territorial, and tribal governments to explore how AI can be adopted responsibly while improving public services and government operations.

From governance and procurement to implementation and real-world use cases, the conversations happening this week will help shape the future of AI in government.

The summit is part of a growing national effort to help governments move from AI experimentation to responsible implementation, bringing together leaders from government, philanthropy, and technology, including Bloomberg, Google DeepMind, the Gates Foundation, and the Rockefeller Foundation.

We’re excited to join public sector leaders, practitioners, and innovators from across the country to learn, share, and contribute to the conversation.

If you’re attending, we’d love to connect.

Welcoming the U.S. Small Business Administration to G-Commerce.

Behind every small business success story is an ecosystem working to make growth possible.

The SBA is the federal government’s primary engine for small business growth, providing access to capital, contracts, counseling, and resources for entrepreneurs and business owners across the country.

In FY2025, the SBA delivered a record $45 billion in 7(a) and 504 loans to more than 85,000 small businesses nationwide, helping fuel entrepreneurship, job creation, and economic growth in communities across the country.

At Glass, we believe small businesses are essential to a healthy and competitive public sector marketplace. Expanding opportunities for businesses of all sizes to participate in government procurement is core to our mission, and we’re proud to support the SBA as it continues to drive impact for entrepreneurs and communities nationwide.

In front of the people shaping government technology.

Our G-Commerce AI Solutions Marketplace Pilot Program was recently featured in GovTech Biz, reaching CIOs, procurement leaders, and public sector decision-makers across the country.

Built in partnership with Sourcewell, the pilot helps public agencies discover and purchase AI solutions through a simpler, competitively awarded procurement path.

It’s encouraging to see growing attention on one of government’s biggest challenges: making it easier to adopt innovative technology responsibly and efficiently.

Welcoming the United States Air Force to G-Commerce ✈️

The United States Air Force is the world’s largest air force, operating more than 5,000 aircraft and supporting a workforce of more than 640,000 military and civilian personnel across its active-duty, Reserve, and Air National Guard components.

Today, we officially kick off our partnership as teams begin onboarding to the platform.

As one of the largest organizations in the federal government, the Air Force projects air power, protects the homeland, and maintains the readiness that underpins national security every day.

We’re honored to support the people behind that mission and help modernize the purchasing experience for Air Force teams.

📰 We made the news. Glass was featured on GovTech.com.

GovTech reaches the CIOs, procurement directors, and agency decision-makers shaping how public institutions buy.

The piece covers our newly launched G-Commerce AI Solutions Marketplace Pilot Program — built together with Sourcewell to give public agencies a faster, simpler way to find, evaluate, and purchase AI tools through competitively awarded cooperative contracts.

Through our partnership with Sourcewell, the platform is accessible to their network of 50,000+ government, education, and nonprofit organizations.

About 50 suppliers are already in the pilot, with early participants spanning local governments, public universities, and school districts.

AI procurement in the public sector has always moved slowly. We built this to change that.

Google just announced Universal Cart at I/O 2026 — a more seamless way to search, compare, and buy across vendors and platforms.

We agree. This kind of purchasing experience has been needed for a long time.

That’s why G-Commerce has been bringing it to government procurement for years — built for the operational complexity public sector teams manage every day.

One place to purchase across thousands of vendors, with:
⚡️Vetted suppliers
⚡️Purchase card controls
⚡️Audit-ready transactions
⚡️Compliance built into every order
⚡️Multi-address global shipping

Consumer commerce is finally moving toward capabilities our government buyers have depended on for years.

We didn’t write these. Our G-Commerce federal community did.

“Soooo much better than the mandatory platforms.”

“That was lightning fast!”

“OH MY GOSH you guys are AWESOME!!!”

“You did what Amazon and Grainger were unable to do.”

“Once again you guys knock it out of the park! Top-notch group you all are.”

These are real, unsolicited messages from federal buyers — from the U.S. Army to USDA
offices in remote Alaska — after purchasing through G-Commerce.

Government procurement has a reputation for being slow, painful, and unresponsive.
It doesn’t have to be.

Glass was featured by Govly following the launch of the G-Commerce AI Solutions Marketplace pilot program in partnership with Sourcewell.

Govly is a platform focused on government contracting and procurement intelligence, helping connect agencies, suppliers, and emerging opportunities across the public sector.

The feature highlights the launch of the pilot program, which gives state and local agencies a new way to discover, compare, and request quotes for AI solutions through competitively solicited cooperative purchasing contracts.

As governments move quickly to evaluate and adopt AI technologies, the infrastructure behind procurement matters more than ever.

This Memorial Day, we remember.

We honor the service members who gave their lives in defense of this country — and the families who carry that sacrifice with them every day.

And to the veterans and active duty members across our federal agency partners and supplier community: thank you. We’re proud to work alongside you.

Public service doesn’t stop when the uniform comes off. Every day, we see people continuing to serve through government work, emergency response, logistics, infrastructure, procurement, and the systems that keep this country moving.

At Glass, we’re committed to helping the people serving this country get what they need faster, easier, and with fewer barriers standing in the way of the mission.

Today, we honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice — and recommit ourselves to supporting the people still carrying that mission forward.
