Overview · for Native-serving programs
OlenArc
AI software for Native-serving programs that run on federal funding.
We started in Utqiaġvik, Alaska — the northernmost city in the U.S. — and our grant platform is in production across all eight North Slope Iñupiat villages. We turn the work a funded program is already on the hook for — grants, audits, intake — into tools that mostly run themselves. We ship the one bounded tool a program needs, not a giant platform you bend your work around. The client owns and can export everything we build. We’re a partner and ally — not Native-owned.
What we build
OlenReadyour flagshipAn audit-readiness & grant-compliance workspace that keeps federally-funded programs prepared for a Single Audit (2 CFR 200, 200.332 subrecipient monitoring) — so it’s never a last-minute fire drill.
Portals, intake & dashboardsApplicant portals, intake & eligibility workflows, review queues, and program dashboards that fit how your team already works.
OlenHubEvents, news, and local answers for Native communities in one place — live on the Apple App Store and on the web, in use on the North Slope. Proof of how we build with community programs.
