The product release comes as other gov tech suppliers are beefing up their own asset management capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>A statement offered this example of how Ursa works: A worker in the field photographs equipment \u2014 that is, assets \u2014 and then requests an inspection. The Asset Panda tech analyzes the image and provides findings and then stores the results in the relevant records.<\/p>\n<p>What the company calls \u201csimple prompts\u201d can help department leaders, meanwhile, do their own reports, and to quickly learn the availability or maintenance status of assets, which can include anything from laptops to vehicles to machinery. The tool also provides \u201cclear visibility into asset depreciation,\u201d according to the statement.<\/p>\n<p>The company\u2019s sales pitch boils down to this: The AI tool can replace relatively burdensome processes based on spreadsheets, bringing time savings and other efficiencies to the management of what often amounts to thousands of assets across any one government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not a chatbot,\u201d Justin Lackey, president of Asset Panda, told Government Technology. \u201cIt\u2019s a real AI layer that understands the work itself. It can really build things and it builds it through natural language.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That refers to users who&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.govtech.com\/biz\/new-asset-panda-platform-brings-more-ai-to-asset-management\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Asset Panda Platform Brings More AI to Asset Management https:\/\/www.govtech.com\/biz\/new-asset-panda-platform-brings-more-ai-to-asset-management Publish Date: 2026-04-22 16:53:00&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":234457,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/erepublic.brightspotcdn.com\/dims4\/default\/7145fd7\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/940x457+0+91\/resize\/1440x700!\/quality\/90\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Ferepublic-brightspot.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com%2F3a%2F22%2F6a1ba91c0cab40a7c7c963fa06a1%2Fshutterstock-584819980.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-234456","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/234456"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=234456"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/234456\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":234458,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/234456\/revisions\/234458"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/234457"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=234456"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=234456"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=234456"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
