Why we're building this

The ecosystem is about to receive billions. It isn't ready.

Dozens of new funders are about to deploy billions into AI safety. The current system wasn't built for them.

Smaller grants get missed

Projects asking for <$50K are often too small for larger funds and too hard to discover casually.

Due diligence gets repeated

Every donor rebuilds the same picture. Every grantee re-answers the same questions.

Funding status is unclear

It's hard to tell who is actively fundraising and what their runway looks like.

Discovery is insider-heavy

Good opportunities and honest takes on them are still mostly passed around through private networks.

We're building the coordination layer the ecosystem needs: comprehensive public data, living funding status, and trusted signal — all in one place.
