Partnerships and transparency
How we give back: sponsorships, open source, charitable giving, and reduced-rate technology for non-profits. Everything on this page is something we are doing now, not something we intend to.
Where our support goes
Five channels, each with something concrete behind it. Follow any of them for the detail.
Open source
We give back to the community that supports us. The tools we build for our own work go on GitHub under the MIT license, free to clone, fork, and ship inside whatever you are building.
Carpathian Labs, a public playground for AI agents and research, is still being built. When it opens it will be listed here.
- Every tool is MIT licensed with no extra clauses
- Maintained by the engineers who use it daily
- No accounts, no upsells, no paid tier
- Research papers published alongside the code
