About House of Turing

Who we are.

House of Turing helps mid-sized businesses and SMEs adopt AI, govern and audit it, and make it stick.

Our story

Why House of Turing.

House of Turing is the group’s technology company, named after Alan Turing. He is best known for his part in breaking the Enigma code at Bletchley Park, work historians credit with shortening the Second World War. His larger legacy came before and after it.

In 1936 he described a single machine that could carry out any task written down as a series of steps, the idea behind every computer since. In 1950, in his paper Computing Machinery and Intelligence, he asked whether machines could think. His answer was practical: judge a machine by what it actually does, and build machines that learn from experience rather than trying to program everything in. That is close to how machine learning works today, more than seventy years before it reached everyday business.

He was clear-eyed about the risks too. He expected intelligent machines to make mistakes, warned that the people teaching a learning machine would often not know quite what was going on inside it, and foresaw machines one day outstripping the people who built them. Long before anyone spoke of responsible AI, he was asking the questions it tries to answer.

We take three things from him. Test AI on real work and judge it by results. Keep people in charge, with clear owners, human review where it matters and the evidence to show it works. And use AI to augment people, not replace their judgement: the best results come when people and machines each do what they do best.

That is what we offer. We help mid-sized businesses, and the small businesses that have been priced out, adopt AI with confidence: finding where it pays, putting governance, risk and audit in place, training people to use it well, and building the tools that make a difference. We start with the decision you want to improve, not the software.

Readiness reviews, governance, audit and training are our own work, with our own methods and tools. When a client needs something built or technically tested, we bring in selected partners who work under our lead and to our standards. We never audit a system we built.

What we believe

Selected partners

The right specialists, under one lead.

Readiness reviews, governance, audit and training are our own work, with our own methods and tools. For technical assurance and for building, we bring in selected partners: specialists we know, who work under our lead and to our standards.

Assurance

A second pair of eyes on the technology

Technical testing of AI systems for accuracy, bias, robustness and security, carried out by specialist testers alongside our governance and audit work, so you can show customers, insurers and regulators the evidence.

Build

Proven platforms, not blank pages

Established platforms and engineering partners for digital twins, AI agents, dashboards and integration, so you get working tools in weeks without paying for software to be written from scratch, and without being tied to one vendor.

How we work with them

Our lead, our standards

We choose partners for each piece of work on fit, manage them day to day and stay accountable for the result. Audit work is always kept separate from anything we helped to build.
