Who We Are
boultons MultiMedia has been building innovative digital products since 1995 — from interactive software sold in Harvey Norman and Big W, to AI-powered tools now used in 150 countries. We are Trevor and Annie Boulton, based in Hervey Bay, Queensland, and everything we build sits at the intersection of technology, education and community benefit.

What We Do
We develop and produce multimedia products that work across every platform — PC, tablet, smartphone, interactive whiteboard, and web — in any language. From language learning tools and mental health training programs, to AI chatbots, talking books and workplace wellness apps, our work has always been about making complex ideas accessible to ordinary people.

Our History
boultons MultiMedia was founded in 1995 by Trevor and Annie Boulton. Initially, they produced PC-based souvenir products and language learning tools sold in major Australian stores. That early work grew into something much larger. Trevor is a founder of Life Education, Surfers Paradise Anglican Crisis Care, and Community Housing, among many other youth-focused programs. His background in technology led to the production of numerous PC-based and online training packages for government and the mental health sector, and he is a pioneer in virtual meetings and remote training technologies.

Annie and Trevor, with their son Dan, have travelled extensively and taught English as a second language in China, Tibet and the Philippines. Both hold TESOL degrees and recognised early the need for multimedia products to model English phonics, which led to the English Pronunciation Teachers Toolkit — now used internationally.


The Brain Health Education Institute

boultons MultiMedia is the production engine behind the Brain Health Education Institute — the organisation Trevor and Annie co-founded to prevent mental illness before it takes hold. For over 35 years, BHEI has worked at the intersection of neuroscience, lived experience and community education, reaching more than 500,000 people in 150 countries. Every digital tool, course, app and AI product we build for BHEI is produced in-house by boultons MultiMedia.


What We've Built

Our portfolio spans three decades and covers a lot of ground: interactive pronunciation trainers, mental health certificate courses, The How To Stay Sane In A Crazy World book, with a 37-episode podcast series, Circle of Security parenting program  delivery, Street Lockers For The Homeless, AI sales assistants for real estate, grant writing training, workplace debrief tools, talking books, AI web apps for tourism, museums, history and cosmetics — and now a 24/7 AI Mental Fitness - Personal Trainer available in any language.


Current Work
Today, boultons MultiMedia is at the forefront of practical AI application — building conversational tools that work without apps, without logins, and without complexity. Our conversational AI web apps serve museums, tourism operators, property developers, cosmetics brands, and community organisations — all trained on their content, available in any language, 24/7.



Our New - Mental Fitness
AI Personal Trainer


The gym has always had personal trainers for your body. Mental Fitness is the first to bring that same always-on, personalised support to your mind.

The Gap We're Filling
Despite record investment in mental health services, the data tells a troubling story — more spending, yet more people struggling. Waiting lists for psychologists stretch for months. Workplace stress is at an all-time high. The pressures of modern life don't pause while you wait for an appointment. For most people, the real need is simple: someone — or something — to talk to right now, without judgment, without paperwork, and without a six-month wait.

Where AI Changes Everything
The Brain Health Education Institute has spent 35 years understanding how our brains process stress, emotion and experience. That knowledge now sits at the heart of Mental Fitness — an AI personal trainer for your mind, available 24/7 in any language.

Just as talking something through with a trusted friend or a psychologist can lift the weight of a difficult day. Mental Fitness creates that same space for reflection and release — any time you need it. It won't replace professional care, but for the millions of people who can't access it quickly enough, it fills a very real and very human gap.
