AISafety.com: Funding

AISafety.com: Funding is the dedicated funding resources section of AISafety.com, which serves as a central hub and list-of-lists for the AI safety ecosystem. The platform is operated by Alignment Ecosystem Development (AED), a nonprofit focused on building and maintaining digital infrastructure for the AI safety field. The funding directory was adapted from the Future Funding List originally maintained by AED. The page catalogs 60+ funding sources across multiple categories including funds and foundations, grant programs, venture capital firms, incubators, and platforms. Each listing includes an organization logo, brief description, funding type, whether the funder is currently accepting applications, and the types of recipients they support. Notable funders listed include Coefficient Giving (described as the largest funder in x-risk reduction), Survival and Flourishing Fund, Schmidt Sciences programs, and Long-Term Future Fund. AISafety.com is led by project owner Søren Elverlin, who self-funds much of the operation, along with a global volunteer team that includes Bryce Robertson (QA and resources coordinator), Melissa Samworth (designer and frontend developer), and a backend developer known as nemo, plus numerous other volunteers. The site operates under a CC BY-SA license and is maintained by AI safety community-builders who believe AI poses a grave risk of extinction to humanity. In December 2025, AISafety.com launched the AI Safety Funding newsletter on Substack, authored by Bryce Robertson, which publishes approximately twice monthly to alert people working on AI x-risk projects to newly announced funding opportunities and approaching application deadlines. The newsletter sources its content directly from the aisafety.com/funding database. The broader AISafety.com platform underwent a significant redesign in November 2025 to improve accessibility for newcomers to the field.
