Research first. Always reported.
OpenPrototypes is brand new. We use a 90/10 split as a starting reference, and it will be adjusted as the legal and fiscal side of funding LLM research is defined. Changes are announced here first.
Monthly reports
The first report is published after the first month of donations.

Before you donate.
Who receives the money?
MaterIA Core, a small company in Madrid that runs OpenPrototypes, handles donations and provides legal support.
Is my donation anonymous?
Yes, by default. You only appear on the supporters wall if you choose a pseudonym.
Can I fund one specific project?
We're deciding this with the community. For now, donations go to the shared research pot and the community decides where it goes.
Is it tax-deductible?
The fiscal setup is still being defined, so don't count on it for now. We'll update this page as soon as it's clear.
What if a project fails?
Then we publish why. A failed experiment still tells everyone what doesn't work, and that has value too.
