Laude Institute

Laude Institute is built by and for impact researchers and operates at the intersection of academia and industry to catalyze computer science research that reaches people's hands. It runs two grant mechanisms: Slingshots, fast low-friction grants and hands-on support for computer scientists turning new research into startups or open-source infrastructure, and Moonshots, seed funding and multi-year labs for proven academic researchers using AI on species-level challenges.¹
