Our story
We have been risk and compliance practitioners for years, working across industries from healthcare and financial services to local government. Everywhere we went, we kept running into the same problems.
Endless spreadsheets scattered across departments. Critical data lost between versions. Domain expertise walking out the door when team members moved on. Teams from different units completely misaligned on risk priorities.
So we combined what we had learned in hands-on governance and risk work with AI. The result is Dimeri: the AI platform for consultants and internal risk, compliance and audit teams, built by practitioners, for practitioners.
