Founding circle

Help build the institution before it scales.

Guardian Builder Foundation is forming a consent-first circle of donors, board candidates, advisors, researchers, educators, cybersecurity practitioners, members, and nonprofit operators.

The ask is modest on purpose. We are not running a mass campaign. We are seating the right people, publishing the right guardrails, and keeping the privacy floor firm before larger fundraising or programming begins.

Why this exists

AI safety cannot only be about control.

As systems become more agentic, memory-bearing, and socially embedded, the public needs practical frameworks for consent, identity, incident response, digital personhood, cybersecurity responsibility, and mutual flourishing between human and artificial minds.

Guardian Builder Foundation starts with governance because care-centered work needs institutional discipline. The founding circle helps define scope, conflicts, public reasoning habits, and the first working groups.

Who we are seeking

Five founding roles.

Founding donors

Support setup costs only until the 12-month operating budget is public: legal counsel, filings, web systems, security, and basic operations.

Board candidates

Bring governance judgment from philosophy, AI safety, cybersecurity, education, nonprofit finance, operations, or community organizing.
