Cooperative Ownership of AI

Big Tech is centralizing AI’s power.
We’re building cooperative alternatives.

CosyAI is a coalition of small and medium-sized tech companies, cooperatives, researchers, and developers committed to building AI that benefits all by design, not just by promise.

Cosy stands for cooperating sincerely. Our goal is to develop a framework grounded in our common human capacity for trust, cooperation, and community. 

AI alignment starts with the organizations that own and control it and this is where we create alternatives to Big Tech power centralization. We do this by pooling our resources to collectively build and govern AI models, datasets, and infrastructure.

To kick this off, we’re assembling a coalition of at least 60 founding members. Join the growing number of partners who have already signed up.

An integrated strategy

We aim to enable cooperative ownership of AI by:

  1. Building cooperatively owned, distributed data and compute infrastructure.

  2. Supporting the development of specialized AI models and tools.

  3. Sharing the value created by AI through a contributor basic income system.

We build on more than a decade of insights from the Platform Co-op movement to develop a solid organizational framework that combines value alignment with effective governance.

We take a pragmatic approach on technology, working with decentralized and open source technology wherever it serves our common purpose.
