PLAI (pronounced 'play') stands for Purpose Led AI.
It's not just an acronym for what we do, its about how we do it:
We use gamified learning to keep everyone engaged. We use the best of neuroscience, AI and learning design to create engaging and powerful experiences.
We keep people at the heart of what we do, tailoring our solutions and programs to you and your needs. Because people drive change.
We focus on the most simple and powerful AI solutions that help you live out your why. Because everything starts with purpose.
We use a human-led transformation model and design thinking approach for helping you not only understand AI but develop strategies and tools that create sustainable change.
We take a Human-centred AI (HCAI) approach to AI development and implementation. We prioritise AI that enhances human capabilities, respects human dignity, and promotes social good.
We take ethical and responsible AI seriously in both how we design and use AI and how we support our clients. We are also a member of the advisory committee for Fundraising.AI
We're supporting a growing list of nonprofits and social impact agencies,
and have empowered than 4000 nonprofit leaders from 21 countries.
