Eliminate Casework Backlogs With Deterministic Statutory Guardrails.
The Automated Statutory Compliance Engine (ASCE) acts as an intelligent clearinghouse for federal and state benefits programs—triaging inherited backlogs, stopping redundant document freezes, and safeguarding statutory deadlines under 44 CFR, 42 CFR, and 7 CFR.

The Backlog Crisis Isn’t a Staffing Shortage.
Over 60% of stalled government benefits cases are trapped in automated administrative loops that temp workers and generic generative AI cannot solve.
The 30-Day “RFI Loop”
Uncertain caseworkers default to requesting documents already submitted or verified in state databases—triggering mandatory 30-day freezes on every touch.
False Conflict Lockouts
Cosmetic formatting differences (e.g., street abbreviations) are misclassified as potential fraud, dumping legitimate households into 90-day investigation queues.
The Appeal Doom Loop
Overwhelmed caseworkers issue procedural denials to meet quotas. Citizens immediately appeal and reapply, doubling the agency’s workload.
Statutory Cliff Breaches
First-in, first-out processing causes cases approaching federal deadlines (Medicaid 45-day, SNAP 7-day) to expire, triggering federal clawbacks and audits.
The Intelligent Clearinghouse: How ASCE Resolves It
Deployed as an invisible middleware layer between agency intake and core databases, ASCE triages backlogs into actionable streams without ripping or replacing existing IT.
The ASCE 48-Hour Historical Backlog Sweep
Batch-ingests stalled legacy databases to automatically isolate, categorize, and accelerate decisions at 10,000+ files per hour:
The Invisible Clear
Files where all statutory proofs exist in the database, frozen only for lack of human touch. Packaged for single-click bulk supervisor approval.
Surgical Deficiency
Strips away false conflicts and identifies the EXACT single document needed from the citizen, ending generic 30-day RFI ping-pong.
Statutory Cliff Alert
Identifies cases within 48 hours of federal statutory deadlines and surfaces them to senior caseworkers to prevent state default penalties.
Estimate Your 48-Hour Sweep Impact
Adjust your agency’s pending case volume and hourly caseworker rate to calculate immediate hours and labor budget saved:
Engineered for Deterministic Statutory Compliance
Unlike unguarded generative models, ASCE enforces deterministic statutory rule gates verified against whitelisted CFR sections with cryptographic audit receipts.
100% Deterministic Gate
Decisions and statutory deadlines are computed strictly by deterministic state machines. AI is never permitted to adjudicate legal rights or create policy.
Redundant RFI Interceptor
Blocks caseworkers from generating unnecessary document requests when primary verified records already exist in the system cache or state databases.
Tamper-Evident Receipts
Produces immutable ISO 8601 UTC receipts with SHA-256 hashes of inputs, CFR citations, and supervisor approvals for instant OIG audit defense.
Zero Rip-and-Replace
Operates as a stateless Compliance-as-a-Service (CaaS) REST API, integrating seamlessly with Salesforce Public Sector, Pegasystems, or legacy MMIS.
