Researchers
Academic, applied, or independent work with a clear question and a credible path to learning.
Kedy for Research
Kedy supports researchers, independent thinkers, and emerging talent with API credit grants for work that can expand how intelligence is understood and used.
Progress should not be limited to the teams with the largest compute budgets.
Research is part of the infrastructure.
Our vision is to make efficient intelligence available to people exploring difficult, useful, and unconventional ideas. Kedy for Research provides selected projects with API credits so more energy can go into the question—not the cost of asking it.
Who the program is for
Thinkers
Interdisciplinary projects that test new ways of understanding technology, society, and intelligence.
Emerging talent
Students and early-career builders with strong ideas that need room, tools, and momentum.
Application process
A clear path from proposal to credits.
- 01
Share the question
Describe the problem, why it matters, and what you expect to investigate or build.
- 02
Define the scope
Include the intended API use, approximate timeline, data requirements, and expected output.
- 03
Program review
We assess clarity, feasibility, potential value, responsible use, and alignment with the program.
- 04
Grant activation
Selected projects receive a defined API credit grant, activation period, and any applicable usage conditions.
What we look for
Clear intent. Responsible execution. Useful learning.
- A specific research question or technical objective
- A realistic plan and expected API usage
- A responsible approach to data, safety, and evaluation
- Potential scientific, technical, or public value
Grants are reviewed individually and depend on program capacity. Credits are limited to the approved project, may be time-bound, and are not transferable or redeemable for cash.
