The Human
Layer
Everyone has access to the same AI.
Your people are the difference.
Why does enterprise AI need a Human Layer?
AI gives every organisation the same intelligence. The Human Layer protects what makes yours different.
As AI embeds into work, language standardises and tone flattens. People rework output that does not sound like them, trust stays low and adoption stalls. The Human Layer gives AI the human context it needs to represent the people behind the work.

"AI Power, authentically Human. Sounds Like Me® is the 'missing link' in AI productivity. This solution bridges the uncanny valley between AI and people, enabling better quality interactions and an authentically human experience. This solution helps me be more productive, while retaining what it feels like to be 'me'. Love it."
The return. Rework costs around £1,283 per person a year. Sounds Like Me® costs £22 to £27. Recover around 2% of that rework and it has paid for itself.
Award-winning culture powered by iAM® and Microsoft Copilot. Every employee created their own Human Layer through Veramed's in-house LMS.
"iAM® has been a game changer, we love it. Created via our in-house LMS, everyone at Veramed has an iAM®. They use it to know who they are, their superpowers, and with Copilot they are brought to life, authentic and personally supported. Thanks to the Sounds Like Me® App adoption of Copilot has been incredible. It's Human Led AI amplifying everyone here."
Judgement accelerated,
never replaced.
More than context. A designed thinking partner.
An iAM® gives AI powerful human context. An Exec AI Twin goes further, combining structured knowledge about the leader with a deliberately engineered reasoning environment designed around how they lead, decide and exercise judgement.
The leader→Human + leadership context→Exec AI Twin reasoning
This is why an Exec AI Twin is not simply your CV and iAM® uploaded into AI.The context matters. How the AI is engineered to reason with that context matters too.

reasoning
AI that can think with the leader because it has been designed around the leader.
The Exec AI Twin doesn't replace judgement. It gives judgement a better thinking environment.
A Team Brain gives every Exec AI Twin shared strategic context, while each leader retains their own judgement, perspective and voice.
Where does the Human Layer come from?
The human,
in their own words.
iAM® is a structured, guided self-reflection that gives each person a unique description of their values, character and authentic drivers. Not a psychometric. No colours, letters, boxes or scores.
Validated in a randomised qualitative study of 99 clients over three months. 20 years proven.
Every iAM® is unique. Created by the person, in their own words. No categories. No labels. No algorithms.

How does it work securely inside our AI environment?
Secure by design. Inside your tenant.
Sounds Like Me® and the Exec AI Twin run as Copilot Studio agents inside your own Microsoft 365 tenant, under the controls you already trust.
Your tenant, your rules. No new identity provider and no external data store for your Copilot agents.
Get more from the AI you already have and prepare it for what comes next.
What does this mean for people, culture and agency?
Culture is being rewritten by accident.
When AI does not sound like your people, they rework it before standing behind it. Trust becomes conditional and culture flattens quietly.
- 84% confidence, up from 42%
- 86% intention to stay, up from 35%
- A review of 75 studies
If the human layer of AI is not deliberately owned, it is decided by default. CPOs own how work feels and how judgement is exercised. The Human Layer makes that remit designable.
- Never used to recruit, monitor, evaluate or score people.
- The person owns their iAM®.
- Human context is stated, never inferred.

Scale AI without scaling sameness.
Give people the benefits of enterprise AI without gradually removing the individuality, voice and judgement that make them valuable.
What is AI without a Human Layer already costing us?
The licence isn't the only cost. The rewording is.
People edit, rewrite, soften and harden AI output they do not recognise. Low adoption strands licences. Here is the exposure on 10,000 Copilot licences.
hidden exposure over three years. Around £5 lost for every £1 of licence.
Sounds Like Me® removes the rework exposure. Output arrives recognisably yours, so delegation is trusted.
Assumptions: 10 minutes of rework per person each working day at £35 an hour. Average enterprise adoption of 40%. Copilot licence at £288 per user per year.
The return on the Human Layer.
Recover <2% and it has paid for itself.
AI gives every organisation access to the same intelligence. The Human Layer protects what makes each organisation different.
