Built on Trust, Privacy, and Responsible AI

Promethean’s AI strategy is grounded in the principles customers expect from a trusted education and workplace technology partner: data privacy, security, fairness, transparency, and accountability. Specifically, with respect to AI tools within Promethean’s services, personal information remains on local customer-owned devices by default. This privacy-first approach is designed to help schools, districts, and organisations adopt AI responsibly while maintaining confidence in how their data is handled.

Practical Innovation That Solves Real Customer Needs

Rather than pursuing AI for its own sake, Promethean is focused on capabilities that deliver measurable value in everyday environments. The new tools are designed to save time, make it easier to deliver and augment content, simplify setup and maintenance, give better visibility into class and team engagement, and help users make faster, more informed decisions that support stronger learning and collaboration outcomes.

Reliable, Seamless, and Ready for Scale

Promethean’s AI tools are built to integrate smoothly into established routines and perform consistently across supported environments. Designed to work within platforms including Explain Everything^® (‘EE’) and Promethean ActivSuite™, the technology helps customers capture the benefits of AI without disrupting lesson delivery, meeting flow, or existing technology investments.

Upcoming Product Releases

Beginning in Q4, schools and districts will be able to opt in to new AI-powered tools as they become available, giving customers control over adoption timing and implementation:

Engage Meter: Integrated into Promethean ActivSuite on macOS and Windows operating systems as an optional tool, with additional platforms planned, Engage Meter delivers immediate feedback on class or team engagement. It gives educators and leaders practical insight to help maintain focus, adapt in the moment, and support more productive learning and work environments. To help preserve privacy, all personal data collected by the Engage Meter tool is processed locally on the customer-owned device without the transmission of any personal data to Promethean or any third party.

The Promethean Companion for ActivSuite and for EE (on iOS): This new AI companion helps educators with setup, preparation, and lesson delivery. By providing timely, contextual support within familiar workflows, the Promethean Companion is designed to reduce administrative friction and give teachers more time to focus on instruction, student engagement, and classroom management.

“Promethean is taking a practical, responsible approach to AI one that starts with customer trust and focuses on outcomes that matter,” said Lance Solomon, Chief Technology Officer at Promethean. “These tools are designed to help educators and teams improve engagement today while creating a foundation for long-term innovation and growth.”

With these releases, Mynd.ai is extending its position as a trusted technology partner for schools, districts, and organisations seeking responsible AI that is easy to adopt, simple to use, and aligned with real-world needs. The Company remains focused on building solutions that support customers today while creating durable value for the future.
