About Taught by Humans
We started by teaching people. We built the platform because nothing else worked the way learning actually does.
Most workplace training fails before it starts - irrelevant, forgettable, and built around the tool rather than the person. We know, because we spent years teaching people directly before we built anything.
We're learning scientists first, technologists second. The platform, the AI, the data - all of it exists to make learning stick and give managers the confidence that their team is actually ready.
Learning scientists. Not just technologists.
Our values
Powered by tech. Taught by Humans.
Always learning
All about the data
Our story
Workforce development partner
From AI confidence to full workforce development. Helping regulated teams build the skills, knowledge, and readiness their business depends on.
Any workplace learning
Expanded beyond AI and data to support any learning need - onboarding, compliance, upskilling. One platform, built around your team.
Platform launch
We built what we couldn't find elsewhere. A learning platform with Dotly, an AI companion trained on your company knowledge.
AI and data confidence
As AI changed everything, we focused on helping teams understand and use it - practically, not theoretically. Taught by Humans became a company.
100 Women Data Confident
A campaign to make 100 women confident with data, through mentoring and a hands-on programme. Proof that the right support changes everything.
Where it started
Before Taught by Humans was a company, our founder spent years teaching people directly - making technology accessible to those who'd been left behind by it.
Our humans
