The evidence behind CompliMind

Measured improvements in time, accuracy, and compliance assurance - validated in NHS settings.

Every claim on this page is traceable to its source. Where evidence comes from controlled experiments, we report sample sizes, effect sizes, and statistical significance. Where data is self-reported, we say so. We do not present pilot outcomes as production-scale results.

Public AI tools are already creating legal and governance exposure

NHS teams are turning to consumer AI tools to cope with compliance workloads. The legal system is catching up faster than most organisations expect - and the consequences are real.

Uploading sensitive data into public AI is now a legal liability

In Munir v Secretary of State [2026] UKUT 81 (IAC), the Upper Tribunal ruled that uploading confidential documents into an open-source AI tool such as ChatGPT places that information into the public domain - constituting a breach of client confidentiality and a waiver of legal professional privilege. Courts now distinguish between open-source and closed-source AI, and will hold organisations accountable for how staff use AI with sensitive data. NHS Trusts using uncontrolled public AI tools for compliance work face exposure to confidentiality breaches, privilege waiver, and regulatory sanction. Adopting a purpose-built, closed-source platform is a governance decision, not just a productivity one.

Government evaluation

M365 Copilot Evaluation - Dept for Business and Trade (Oct 2024 - Mar 2025)

A 1,000-licence pilot found no evidence that time savings led to improved productivity. Control group colleagues had not observed productivity improvements. The evaluation highlighted inconsistencies in quality-assuring AI outputs, hallucinations throughout the pilot, and a lack of knowledge regarding capabilities, limitations, and security concerns among non-pilot staff.
