In child welfare, the AI doesn’t need to be clever. It needs to be constrained—and structured output is how that constraint becomes production-worthy.

Ask a child welfare agency how many kids are on their caseload right now, and you’d think that’s a simple query. It rarely is—and dashboards only help after the definition work is done.
