Built by the people who needed it first.
Multilingual tools for the overlooked — proven on our own programmes, then built for partners.
We build for our own community first. Then for the partners who serve the overlooked.
One group, three activities.
Programmes
Free, multilingual refugee support. 7 languages · 2,000+ community. The mission, and the proof.
Explore programmes →Services
Certified translation (PRVD.LDN) + svoi.uk. Funds the mission by deed.
See services →Technology partnerships
We make verified knowledge findable for mission-aligned organisations. Action4Diabetes · IRC · TERN founders.
Studio →What the infrastructure does.
We don't replace expert organisations. We make their verified knowledge reach people — across language, search and AI answer engines.
Proven outside our own walls.
Action4Diabetes — HelloType1.
Their technology partner since 2023: we built and run their type 1 diabetes platform, findable in 8 Southeast Asian languages. (A4D owns the clinical content; we own the technology layer.)
WebBooster, with TERN.
Through TERN's WebBooster programme we've built websites for refugee founders launching in the UK — live and trading: babylonproject.co.uk · watttech.co.uk · sojok.co.uk.
International Rescue Committee.
We built the website behind IRC's South West delivery of the Home Office Refugee Employability Programme.
Our directory.
15,144 UK service records — the infrastructure our own navigators run, shared with mission-aligned organisations.
Most of this work came to us through TERN — the network we grew out of.
See the Studio →Built for responsible-AI and social-impact partners.
AI labs and enterprises with social-impact initiatives need a delivery partner that lives in the community it serves. That's us.
How we partner →What partners buy.
- AEO & structured multilingual content
- Localisation into underserved languages
- Websites that ship
- Learning infrastructure
- Privacy-first local delivery (£0 cloud)
- Source-verified retrieval only where it helps, always with a human
"We don't sell chatbots no one trusts. We make the right answer findable."
Everything we offer partners, we run for refugees ourselves.
StartNewLife
Asylum, NHS, housing and settlement guidance in 7 languages. Healthcare navigation: 47 people supported, 40 GP registrations (full outcomes on Impact).
Economic inclusion
Refugee founders online through WebBooster; employment routes through our IRC work.
Skybow & She
Skybow (LGBTQ+) and She (women's safety) live on their own domains, low-profile, for the safety of the people who use them.
Structured so the mission can't be sold off.
Mendee.Digital Ltd's surplus cross-subsidises Mendee CIC by deed — buy a translation or commission the Studio, and you fund a refugee programme. The CIC is asset-locked, with TERN named as our asset-locked body on the CIC36: if it ever winds down, its assets pass to TERN, never to individuals.
"TERN runs through Mendee at every level — it incubated us, backed us through every grant, and holds our asset lock."How we're built →
We are not an agency for anyone.
Underserved population · mission-critical information · a real language or accessibility barrier · a verified content owner. If it doesn't pass all four, we'll point you to someone who can help.
