AI Exploration Vouchers

The AI Exploration Voucher is a fund that aims to support businesses and social enterprises in the South of Scotland with exploring and adopting the use of AI. This revenue grant allows organisations to explore how AI adoption can improve efficiency, enhance productivity, and unlock organisational improvement. The fund can be used to access expert guidance, conduct feasibility studies, and test AI solutions for AI integration, including advice, AI readiness assessments, data review, proof-of-concept projects and digital roadmaps. It also supports exploring the ethical, trustworthy and inclusive use of AI within the organisation. Projects must be completed by 28 February 2026 and applications are treated on a first-come-first-served basis with demand expected to be high.
