What we do
Helping organisations be more effective with GenAI
Supporting your AI journey
Whether you’re launching your first chatbot, piloting AI, or scaling automation, we partner with you to design, build, and embed solutions. Our focus is on explainable, sustainable AI that aligns with your goals and delivers measurable, long-term value.
Improving your operations
We help schools, colleges, universities, businesses, and non-profits use AI to improve operations and support the people they serve. Our experience spans education and industry, delivering solutions that make a real difference for organisations and their communities.
Tailored to your situation
We tailor AI to your context—strengthening back-office functions, improving decision-making, and delivering faster, more personalised support. Combining technical expertise with practical insight, we ensure your AI investments are well-governed, future-ready, and impactful in the real world.
Our Philosophy
GenAI should be easy to use, private by default, and built around your needs
At Second Mesh, we believe AI should be practical, transparent, and built around
you. Whether you're in education, business, or the third sector, we partner
with you to design solutions that improve how your teams work and better
support the people you serve.
Our focus is on delivering long-term value,embedding AI in ways that strengthen day-to-day operations, unlock efficiencies, and enhance customer, student, or staff experiences.
We design with safety in mind, not as a bolt-on.
Our AI services include safeguards to prevent misuse, and we work with you
to ensure AI is deployed in ways that protect users, especially vulnerable
individuals.
User data should be protected and private.
Documents, files or APIs connected to AI are kept secure and private. We do not use your data to train the large language models that power your chatbots.
The user always stays in control.
You decide how AI is used across your organisation, from branding and deployment
to permissions and oversight.
No hidden access.
We do not monetise or repurpose your platform activity, and we will never sell
your data to advertisers or analytics providers.
We build with transparency.
Every AI service we offer is designed to be explainable, auditable, and aligned
with your organisation’s governance framework.
We support responsible adoption.
From pilot to scale-up, we help you deploy AI ethically, sustainably, and with a
clear understanding of risks and rewards.
