On September 22, 2026, the City and County of San Francisco added Common Sense to its Emerging Technologies RFQ Pool, a two-year pilot run by the Office of the City Administrator and the Department of Technology to make it easier for city departments to test and buy new technology, including AI. Common Sense is one of the select firms on the prequalified list, alongside ElevenLabs, Datadog, and Deloitte.

San Francisco departments can now pilot and buy Common Sense through the pool instead of starting a procurement from scratch.
