We are launching a public fundraiser. This is the first stage of funding the project beyond the circle of founders and invited partners — the point at which the project stops being a "private initiative" and begins to exist on the funds of a community that shares its goals.
The target amount covers MVP development and the team's work for the next six months. A detailed breakdown is published alongside the campaign: exactly what gets done for every dollar raised. We dislike the phrase "support us" — it's far more honest to say "here's what we plan to do and what it costs".
Money raised publicly carries a different level of responsibility than grants or private investment. We deliberately start with it — it changes the logic of decision-making.
All income and spending will be public from day one. The "Funding" section will include a detailed table: date, amount, what it was spent on, who made the decision. We believe transparency is not an annual report but a constant flow of data.
What the funds are for
We've split the target amount into specific blocks. If a block isn't fully funded, we'll transparently explain how that affects the plan.
- MVP development: backend, frontend, infrastructure.
- Design research and testing with real users.
- Legal setup of the organizational form (NGO).
- Basic operating costs for the team for the first six months.
- A reserve for the unexpected — public, not hidden.
If you'd like to support the project differently — not with money but with time, expertise, or connections — that's no less valuable. Write to us and we'll find where your contribution will be most useful.
