Pryzm: Commercial AI for Government Acquisition and Budgets

Nick LaRovere, co-founder and CEO of Pryzm, joins Second Front to talk about building an AI copilot for federal contractors and government buyers.

Born from years of living the pain of selling into and navigating government, Pryzm tackles portfolio visibility — connecting financial data from appropriations down to spend so program managers, leadership, and Congress can make informed decisions. Nick shares how the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) work went live on real financial reporting workflows on NIPR, how critical LLM resources were unlocked in that environment, and where transparency and budget flexibility go next across the Department of War.
