Ethics & Responsible AI

AI That Works For Your People, Not Against Them

Principled development. Transparent processes. Measurable accountability at every level of our AI systems.

Our Core Principles

Six Foundational Commitments

These principles guide every decision we make in developing and deploying AI voice agents.

We Keep It Honest

Transparency is the foundation of trust

  • AI Introduces Itself: Every agent starts calls with clear identification as an AI assistant
  • No Pretending: We never pass our agents off as humans. If you need a person, we'll connect you
  • No Hallucinations: If the answer's unclear, agents say "I'm not sure—let me get a human to help"

People Come First

Technology should enhance human capability, not replace human judgment

  • Simple Language: No jargon, no scripts. Agents communicate naturally and clearly
  • Built-In Escalation: Complex, sensitive, or urgent issues are handed to qualified team members
  • User Control: Callers can say "human" anytime to transfer instantly

Privacy Is Non-Negotiable

Your data belongs to you. We protect it like our business depends on it

  • GDPR by Design: We collect only what's needed and delete on request
  • Data Safety: All conversations are encrypted in transit and at rest
  • No Tracking Tricks: No secret recordings. No data sharing without explicit permission

Fairness & Bias Mitigation

Every caller deserves equal treatment regardless of accent, background, or circumstance

  • Regular Testing: We scan for biased responses and uneven treatment of callers
  • Diverse Training: Agents are trained on inclusive data across accents and backgrounds
  • Continuous Improvement: We update models when we find gaps or unfair patterns

Compliance & Security

Meeting regulatory standards isn't optional—it's the baseline

  • Industry Standards: We follow ICO and FCA guidelines where relevant
  • Auditable Logs: Complete conversation records for review and accountability
  • Configurable Boundaries: You set what agents can and cannot say in your industry

Open to Feedback

We're building for the long haul. Your feedback makes us better

  • Continuous Learning: We actively seek input from clients and end users
  • Rapid Response: Issues are addressed quickly and transparently
  • Community Driven: Our roadmap reflects real-world needs and concerns
