Safe SoulMates
AI Assistant for Event Navigation and Management
Mission
Safe SoulMates fosters community and combats isolation for neurodivergent people and those with learning disabilities by organizing events that encourage friendship, connection, and collaboration. With a mission to provide inclusive, safe spaces for people to engage, Safe SoulMates supports up to 30 events per month across different regions, catering to diverse user preferences.
Problem Statement
Safe SoulMates organizes a wide variety of events with specific attributes such as group size, event focus (e.g., LGBTQ+), and location, which users rely on to find the most relevant events for them. Currently, manually tagging and coding these events takes significant time for the team, and users sometimes struggle to navigate the event listings effectively.
Safe SoulMates aims to create an AI-powered assistant that simplifies both the event search process for users and the event management process for the team. The solution would allow users to find events that match their preferences (e.g., small group, LGBTQ+ focus, location-based) while providing the Safe SoulMates team with an efficient way to tag and update event attributes.
What success looks like
Efficient event navigation
Users can easily find events that suit their preferences (location, group size, event type) through intuitive search powered by AI.
Streamlined event management
Safe SoulMates staff can quickly and easily add events to the calendar, with AI automatically tagging events based on key attributes.
Improved user experience
Participants can better navigate the range of events, leading to increased engagement and a stronger sense of community among users.
Time savings
for staff
Reduced manual workload for the team, allowing them to focus on community-building rather than administrative tasks.
Skills & Techniques Required
This project requires expertise in:
Natural Language Processing (NLP)

Event Management Automation
Creating systems that can automatically tag and categorize events based on pre-defined attributes (location, group size, focus).
User Experience Design (UX)
To design an accessible, easy-to-navigate interface for neurodivergent users with a range of cognitive needs.
Recommendation Algorithms
Building AI algorithms that recommend events based on user history and preferences.

About the AI for All Buildathon
On November 22-23, 2024, at People’s Mission Hall, Whitechapel, we’re bringing together charities, AI experts, and students to develop impactful AI tools that charities can use to drive social change.
42 London
42 London’s peer-learning model focuses on equipping students with the skills to tackle real-world challenges. By working on Third and Public Sector projects, students gain advanced technical skills, learn to solve complex problems, collaborate with diverse stakeholders, and create impactful solutions—preparing them to excel as skilled engineers and socially conscious innovators.
Our Partners:
Anthropic
Users are able to engage with self-study material, even if they struggle with reading, by using speech recognition and an intuitive interface that guides them step-by-step.
La Fosse Academy
The AI tool encourages continued learning through motivational prompts, feedback, and support, helping users remain committed to their literacy journey
LIS
A simple, Minimum Viable Product (MVP) that demonstrates the speech recognition feature, allowing users to engage with basic learning modules and progress on their own.
X and Why
A product that can grow with the learners, with potential for further modules and content expansion, especially as new sources of funding are secured.
Mentors & Supporters:
Graphcore, Polecat: Providing expert mentorship to help teams build impactful, responsible and technically sound AI solutions aligned with charitable strategic goals.
