Avelo.
Multilingual AI guidance for people navigating Norway's NAV, Skatteetaten and UDI.
The Norwegian welfare and tax system is built for Norwegian first-language residents. English forms exist. The nuance does not. Immigrants, international students, new permanent residents lose entitlements they actually qualify for. Not because the bureaucracy is hostile. Because the language is a wall.
Avelo is a multilingual AI guide built directly on top of public Norwegian sources. You ask in English, Arabic, Polish, Urdu. It answers with citations to the right paragraph, the right form, the right phone number.
Next.js + Vercel Edge. RAG pipeline over NAV, Skatteetaten, UDI and Altinn. pgvector for embeddings. Claude and GPT for generation, routed through a gateway so we can swap models without changing code. Zero retention on everything. EU region.
Norwegian public systems change slower than commercial SaaS. You have to build agents that handle sources without APIs. Most of the work is not model tuning, it is structuring messy sources so the model finds the right answer at low latency. The same method works for law and accounting firms with 20 years of case history in PDF.
If we can build an agent that answers Norwegian tax-law questions from Skatteetaten, we can build one that answers questions about your contracts, your clients, your processes. Same method. 14 days.
