Mox is a research-focused coworking space and community hub at 1680 Mission Street in San Francisco, launched in February 2025. It serves as SF's primary gathering place for the AI safety and effective altruism communities, offering private offices, hot desks, event space, and fellowship hosting. Mox's theory of change is that providing excellent infrastructure and fostering high-density interactions among people working on important problems accelerates progress on AI safety. It hosts partner organizations including MIRI, FAR.AI, Redwood Research, GovAI, EPOCH, AI Impacts, MATS, and others.

Theory of Change
Mox's theory of change is that co-location and high-density social infrastructure accelerates high-impact work on AI safety and adjacent cause areas. By concentrating researchers, founders, and practitioners working on important problems in a well-resourced physical space in San Francisco, Mox aims to increase serendipitous collaboration, knowledge transfer, and the formation of new projects and organizations. Hosting fellowships, incubators, and events multiplies the number of people entering and advancing in the AI safety field. Rather than taking a specific thesis on AI safety approaches, Mox provides shared infrastructure that benefits a wide range of organizations and individuals across technical AI safety, policy, and EA cause areas.
