From the Field: How RTE international Uses Understand Tech to Operationalize Secure AI
At Understand Tech, we work with organizations that need more than AI experiments. They need governed, scalable, and secure tools that integrate into real operations. One example is RTE international.

RTE international, a subsidiary of Europe’s largest electricity transmission operator, handles highly technical and confidential documentation daily. Like many enterprises, they saw the potential of generative AI.
But rather than letting teams turn to fragmented tools, they needed a unified, secure way to deploy AI across the company.
They came to us with clear priorities:
Full auditability and control over all AI usage
Data protection and anonymization, aligned with GDPR and sector regulations
Integration into internal processes without needing to host their own models
A single, secure workspace with access to multiple AI engines, including public models like ChatGPT, and secure models like Understand AI
Avoid tool fragmentation and reduce costs through platform consolidation
With Understand Tech, RTE international gained:
A secure, enterprise-ready AI workspace with prompt-level governance and audit logs
Built-in anonymization to protect personal and confidential data
Native automation via n8n and API integration, allowing teams to streamline document workflows without added infrastructure
Centralized access to LLMs including Understand AI, GPT-4.1, Mistral Large, and others, all under one subscription
A roadmap to move their most sensitive use cases to Understand IA, our hardened LLM option
Today, RTE international uses Understand Tech to bring AI directly into their daily operations securely and at scale. Teams can choose the best model for each task within the same governed interface, enabling adoption across departments while ensuring compliance and reducing tool sprawl.
We wanted genuine enterprise AI secure, audited, and simple to deploy. Understand Tech gave us that, plus the flexibility to pick the best model for each task including a more secure, private LLM.
