Long (130 words)
Humble AI is a London company. It makes Humble, a second brain for people
whose minds work differently. Humble links your notes, tasks, contacts, web
pages and AI chats in one place, so you can see how things connect. It is
built first for people with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD),
autistic people and dyslexic people, and works for everyone. Humble runs in
the browser, on your phone and in Slack, and connects to tools like Gmail,
Google Calendar, Outlook, Notion and HubSpot. Data is stored in the EU and
encrypted. Humble never sells it or uses it to train AI. Teams use Humble to
see everyone's work in one shared picture. Humble was founded in 2022.
Its investors include Frontline Ventures, Pact, Notion Capital and Kapor
Capital. In 2026, Google chose Humble for its Gemini Startup Forum.


WHY WE STARTED HUMBLE

We started Humble with one question: how do we make AI easy for everyone to
use? When more people can use AI, more people can build technology.
Different people build different things. That makes the world fairer and
more interesting.

We also ask a second question: how can people with very different minds
work well together, each at their best? We believe that if you build for
belonging, work gets better for everyone. Our team is very neurodivergent,
so this matters to us personally.
