SAN FRANCISCO and RESTON, Va. — October 27, 2026 — Tonic.ai, the synthetic data company, and Carahsoft Technology Corp., The Trusted Government IT Solutions Provider®, today announced a partnership. Under the agreement, Carahsoft will serve as Tonic.ai’s Master Government Aggregator®, making the Tonic platform available to Public Sector organizations through Carahsoft’s reseller partners and Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP V), Information Technology Enterprise Solutions – Software 2 (ITES-SW2), National Association of State Procurement Officials (NASPO) ValuePoint and OMNIA Partners contracts.

Every enterprise and Government AI initiative depends on data that is both secure and usable. Yet teams often face challenges on both fronts: production data contains sensitive information that cannot be exposed, while the data needed to build and test new systems may not exist yet. Tonic.ai closes this gap with AI-native synthetic data generation, de-identification and data subsetting, enabling teams to build, test and train AI systems without putting sensitive data at risk.

The Tonic platform gives engineering and AI teams the data they need across a range of workloads. Tonic Fabricate generates referentially intact synthetic data from plain-language prompts, Tonic Structural transforms sensitive production data into safe, high-fidelity test data and Tonic Textual redacts and synthesizes unstructured data for secure AI development and external release. Together, these products provide developers with realistic data for development, testing and AI model and agent training while protecting sensitive information and preserving data privacy.

For Public Sector organizations modernizing with AI, the partnership helps address a critical barrier. Agencies can adopt synthetic data to accelerate development and strengthen their security posture while safeguarding the sensitive information they are entrusted to protect. Through Carahsoft, organizations can access Tonic.ai’s solutions through the contract vehicles they already rely on.

“Enterprise AI initiatives often hit the same wall: the data either isn’t safe to use, or there isn’t any at all,” said David Watson, Director, Partners and Alliances at Tonic.ai. “Tonic.ai is fundamentally changing the way organizations think about AI development and security through a synthetic data platform approach. By combining Tonic.ai’s advanced synthetic data platform with our unique go-to-market partnership with Carahsoft, we’re alleviating the challenges enterprises and Government agencies face to securely develop and deploy AI.”

“Tonic.ai empowers agencies with secure, on-demand access to data for development, testing, redaction and release workflows, without risking sensitive information,” said Alec Wyhs, Sales Director overseeing the Tonic.ai Team at Carahsoft. “By providing safe, high-fidelity synthetic data, Tonic.ai enables agencies to accelerate AI and software innovation. Together with our reseller partners, Carahsoft and Tonic.ai are helping Public Sector organizations advance modernization initiatives and AI development while maintaining the safeguards needed for sensitive data.”

Tonic.ai’s solutions are available through Carahsoft’s SEWP V contracts NNG15SC03B and NNG15SC27B, ITES-SW2 Contract W52P1J-20-D-0042, NASPO ValuePoint Master Agreement #AR2472 and OMNIA Partners Contract #R240303.
