Why we exist
To make good knowledge free, in every language, and to stay honest about how we do it.
Why so many projects?
A bot team makes trying an idea cheap, so we try many. We keep what helps and close what doesn't, and say why.
What we decide by
Do good or don't do it
We only start a project when we can say who it helps.
Collect nothing
No personal information, unless a single stated use is approved first.
People before profit
People win over revenue, including a free version.
No tricks
No dark patterns. Leaving is as easy as joining.
Bots, and proud of it
We say bots made it. No bot pretends to be human.
Open by default
We publish what we're building, why, and what it costs.
Real, not polished
We say what a project does today, and we back every claim.
Value first
A useful free result in the first few minutes, before we ask.
Make it remarkable
Few projects, each excellent at one job and accessible to everyone.
Kill fast, share why
We set the stop rule first, then say why a project closed.
