About Alumnara AI · Built in Belfast
Alumnara AI is a UK startup developing online AI learning for adults who want to use AI with understanding, not just follow a set of instructions.
Founded by Liam O'Neill in Belfast, we are building a beginner-friendly route for everyday work. That means clearer prompts, useful practice and a habit of checking the answer before using it.
UK adults aged 18+ · Beginners welcome · No coding planned
Who we are building for
Perhaps you write emails, organise meetings, explain business figures or plan projects. You can see where AI might help, but you want to know what is safe, what is reliable and what still needs a person.
Our focus is adult beginners, occasional AI users and people in non-technical roles across the UK. The planned course starts with shared foundations, then offers workplace pathways so learners can practise with tasks that fit their interests.
Explore the planned Level 1 courseWhat is available
Our free English-language beginner and workplace guides are open to readers around the world. You can also join the waitlist to download the four-page Human-Controlled AI Starter Kit and request one opening email.
The planned course is UK-first, for adults aged 18 or over. Access to a free guide does not establish eligibility for the future course.
Read the free AI guidesThe planned course brings lessons, practice, a weekly study route and human-reviewed final work together. It is not open for enrolment. The price is not yet confirmed.
We’re aiming to open Alumnara AI Level 1 between March and May 2027. We’ll confirm the opening date once learner testing and final quality checks are complete.
This is a provisional target, not a guaranteed opening date.
How we want learning to feel
These principles guide the course we are developing.
Use plain English, short explanations and familiar examples before asking you to work independently.
Work with realistic, fictional material so you can learn without sharing confidential workplace information.
Compare an answer with its sources. Look for missing facts, weak assumptions and details that should stay private.
Explain what you changed, why you changed it and when using AI would not be appropriate.
People and responsibility
Liam O'Neill Founder, trading as Alumnara
Liam is the founder and the person responsible for developing Alumnara AI. Alumnara AI is a startup business, not a university or an accredited training provider.
AI tools support drafting and development. They do not, by themselves, establish that material is accurate, accessible or ready for learners. Student Home remains private while content, safety, accessibility and quality checks are completed.
Human review of final learner work and feedback are planned for Level 1. We will explain the confirmed course arrangements before enrolment opens.
