Cognitive Platform
editNorwood's Cognitive Voice Services Platform uses AI and Natural Language Understanding (NLU) to offer digital cognitive services. The platform launched in 2022 under the Aïda brand name, available as a white-label offering to telecommunication providers. Aïda acts as a personalised virtual assistant that screens for spam, take messages and route calls.

The World Voicemail platform is also a white-labelled service to telecommunication providers worldwide.

The service lets users lease virtual phone numbers from several countries for inbound and outbound calls.

SecondLine
editSecondLine is a joint offering of the company's World Phone and World Message applications. When used together with a virtual phone number capable of both Voice and Messaging, the user effectively holds a fully functional secondary phone number on their device.
The SecondLine service is available to enterprise and government customers as a SaaS solution that can be managed and configured through a cloud-based web portal.
World Secure
editWorld Secure is an on-demand and dynamic VPN application available on iOS and Android. The app allows its users to connect to the internet through a VPN.
