### Secure storage for eligibility documents

Social safety net programs require people to prove their eligibility for benefits with extensive documentation. Tracking and gathering these documents can be confusing and burdensome for benefits applicants, especially during times of financial or other hardship. 10x is looking into ways to make this process easier and more secure.

### Optimizing the National Address Database (NAD) submission tool

State and local government fees and fines disproportionately impact and marginalize low-income communities and people of color. 10x looked into whether an integrated dashboard would make it easier for people to find and resolve outstanding fines. <a class="usa-link usa-link--external" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://federalist-16f2aca2-467c-449f-b725-5f1a0bd22dcd.sites.pages.cloud.gov/site/gsa-tts/atj-platform/">Check out the A2J Prototype</a>.
Accurate and up-to-date address data is crucial for delivering digital services, but current systems for managing this data are inefficient and fragmented. 10x developed a tool that streamlines the process for local and state governments to <a class="usa-link usa-link--external" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://github.com/GSA-TTS/10x-nad-sttool">submit address information to the NAD</a>, improving public service delivery across the country.

### U.S. Data Federation
The wide array of data sources and structures makes sharing the data across the federal government very difficult, impacting the ability of public officials to do complete analyses. 10x created tools and processes to make sharing data easier.

## Check out some of our projects designed to create high-quality digital experiences for the American public:

### <span>cloud.gov</span> Pages

It is really inefficient for each federal agency to have to figure out how to host secure websites. 10x built <a class="usa-link usa-link--external" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://cloud.gov/pages">cloud.gov Pages</a> (formerly Federalist) to allow agencies to quickly launch attractive, secure, and accessible public websites.

### <span>Code.gov</span>

Open source code is a great way to save money and time by reusing code that has already been developed and tested. 10x created <a class="usa-link usa-link--external" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://code.gov/">Code.gov</a> to help agency partners and developers find and use open source code.

### De-risking government technology

Tech failures are frequently in the news, but they aren't inevitable. 10x developed De-Risking Guides (one for federal audiences and one for state), to provide actionable guidance on the realities of development and how to deliver successful custom tech. Explore the <a class="usa-link usa-link--external" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://guides.18f.gov/derisking-government-tech/">De-risking Guides</a>.

Inexpensive and marketed as easy-to-use, low-code/no-code (LC/NC) tools are attractive to many agencies. 10x <a class="usa-link" href="{{ '/news/low-code-no-code' | url }}">looked at the LC/NC ecosystem</a> and what type of guidance might be needed for agencies to make good decisions about whether LC/NC is right for them.

### Web performance optimization for federal websites

Many government websites suffer from slow load times, unresponsive designs, and poor visual stability, especially under poor connectivity or on lower-end devices. 10x is developing reusable design and development strategies and a performance tool tailored to federal teams to make government websites faster and more reliable.
