Hi HN, Last year, we launched a non-profit AI research lab called AI Grant (http://aigrant.org). Our goal is to fund promising people around the world working on AI. No strings attached. We've since given away over $100,000 to 30 teams working on different projects. You can see some of them here: http://aigrant.org/#finalists. We just started accepting applications for our third batch! The academic grant application process is burdensome. It's only avalible to a choice few. Applications take days to complete. AI Grant is open to anyone on the internet. You can apply…

21st Fund▲151I built this after struggling to find relevant grants and fellowships myself. The project started at the EF Hackathon as a credit underwriting and matching agent for founders. After speaking with founders and students, it became clear that discovery itself was the bigger problem. Most people do not know what grants or non-dilutive options exist for them.

Decks For Good▲125As an angel investor in ~15 unicorns and a bunch of other startups, I spend a lot of time reviewing decks for founders as a favor. I love to help but I wish my time had even more impact. So I built Decks For Good, a website where founders can get feedback on their deck and fundraising process from a VC or exited founder in exchange for a $250 donation to charity. We put together a great group of advisors and we're ready to help you out! Sign up and let's do some good together.
