Balian AI for not-for-profit organisations and NGOs
Governed AI for organisations that serve people at risk.
Beneficiary cases and programme files in one governed workspace. Consent is checked on every use, safeguarding concerns reach the safeguarding lead and nobody else, children and survivors are always treated as the most sensitive information, and every donor figure is traced to its source before a report is released.
Runs inside the organisation’s own environment, on models it approves. The showcase and test drives use synthetic data only.
The not-for-profit and NGO edition
For humanitarian, development and social-service organisations. Beneficiary cases and programme files are kept apart, consent is checked on every use, safeguarding information reaches the safeguarding lead and nobody else, and every use of a grant is checked against the donor’s restrictions.

Case triage within consent
Caseworkers ask questions of a household’s records. When consent is the basis for processing, it is checked on every action; withdrawn or expired consent stops all use, including adding new records.
R-NGO-01Safeguarding referrals
A referral goes only to the safeguarding lead on the case. While a high-severity incident is open, every action on the case waits for review, and safeguarding records are visible only to the safeguarding group.
Reviewer routing · R-NGO-02Donor reports with sourced figures
Every figure in a draft report must match the labelled figure in a cited field report. The programme lead releases the report; unsupported figures block the release whoever approves it.
Report verifier · R-ESC-01Children, survivors and locations
Requests involving a child or a survivor, or whose location is sensitive, are always the most sensitive tier, whatever the request declared.
Tier 1 forced by the metadata contractShowcase
Each scenario was recorded by running the real core on synthetic data: what the people involved did, what the core decided at each step, and the ledger entries it wrote.
NGO edition
A donor report where every figure has a source
A caseworker drafts a donor report from field reports. Every figure must match a figure in a cited source, and the programme lead releases the report.
Read the governed trace →An overstated figure cannot be released
A model inflates the results and adds a figure with no source. The verifier flags both, and the release is refused even after approval.
Read the governed trace →Withdrawn consent stops every use
A household's data is processed on the basis of consent. When consent is withdrawn, every further action on the case is denied, including adding new records.
Read the governed trace →A safeguarding referral goes to the safeguarding lead only
A caseworker refers a concern. Only the safeguarding lead sees and decides it; while a high-severity incident is open, every action on the case waits for review.
