about dawn

What is Dawn?

Dawn is a live intelligence platform. It surfaces the early signals and patterns around crime, so the people who protect others can see what's coming and act on it, sooner. It forecasts incidents of harm, up to a year in advance. Intelligence that helps humans decide, earlier.

How accurate is it, really?

Above 98%, measured out of sample against what the police recorded afterwards. Over 1 million forecasts published, each one made before the incident it describes and checked in the open. Denominators are available on request, and the named cases live on the evidence page.

Does Dawn make predictions about people?

No. Dawn forecasts incidents, not people. Every forecast describes a place, an offence and a pattern, and questions about individuals do not get answers. That is enforced in the code, not just in a policy document. The full picture is on the trust page.

Where does the data come from?

Open data. What the police publish, what charities report, what the news records, what open sources show, published under the Open Government Licence. Dawn adds the reading across those fragments, and that part, the platform and everything it produces, is proprietary.

Who is Dawn for?

The people who protect others. Local authorities, safeguarding and community safety teams, schools and colleges, charities, and employers with a workforce that faces the public.

the education hub

What courses are on the Education Hub?

Seventeen modules across three streams. A workplace stream on recognising and responding to sexual harassment at work. An AI literacy, ethics and governance stream, from fundamentals for non-technical leaders through algorithmic bias, governance and generative AI at work. And a harm reduction and gender based violence stream covering understanding gender based violence, coercive control, bystander intervention, digital harassment, trauma-informed approaches, safe reporting, multi-agency working and supporting survivors.

There is also a safeguarding doctrine library, reference material on the harm types Dawn forecasts and the interventions available for each.

How long does a module take?

Between 25 minutes and 100 minutes, with most sitting around 80 to 90. Every module shows its length up front, and your progress saves as you go.

Are any modules free?

Yes, several, including the workplace sexual harassment module, AI fundamentals for non-technical leaders, and understanding gender based violence. Paid modules and organisational seats are bought by card at checkout, and you can start today.

Is the training CPD certified?

Yes. Every completion is logged and dated, with CPD points you can carry anywhere and a certificate to show for it.

Do modules have prerequisites?

Some do. Each stream builds from a foundation module, and any prerequisite is shown on the module itself before you start.

Is the content distressing?

Some of it covers hard ground, and we say so honestly. Every module carries a content note describing what it discusses, nothing is graphic, and support resources sit at the end of every lesson.

If you or someone you know needs support now, the National Domestic Abuse Helpline is free and confidential, 24 hours a day: 0808 2000 247. In an emergency, always call 999.

Can I buy seats for my whole organisation?

for organisations

What does Dawn offer employers?

Two things. The harm context outside your walls, forecast up to a year ahead with governance ready evidence packs, and a trained, proven workforce through the Education Hub with completion evidence logged and dated. Together they evidence your reasonable steps. The detail is on the employers page.

Is Dawn a legal or compliance product?

No. Dawn is not legal advice, and it is not a reporting or case management system. It does not measure what happens inside your workplace. It evidences the steps you took and makes your people ready. Your lawyers do the rest.

How do I see the platform?

the small print

Does this website track me?

No. This site runs Plausible, a privacy first analytics tool. No cookies, which is why there is no banner to click away, no personal data, no cross site tracking. We can see which pages get read, we cannot see who you are.

I am a journalist. What can I quote?

The press page is the whole kit: approved boilerplate, numbers cleared for quotation, the founder bio and the logo files. Anything not on it, ask first at press@dawn-intel.com.
