Funding & sustainability

Genesys is funded through both Crop Trust Endowment Fund, and in addition occasionally through projects for targeted improvements.

This funding model allows us to focus on the long-term. The Endowment covers the core development, ongoing maintenance, and day to day operations of Genesys. This ensures that Genesys remains available and reliable for users and data providers around the world regardless of short-term funding shifts.

Project funding

While our core operations are secure, we occasionally see an opportunity to build something entirely new or expand a specific feature beyond our regular roadmap. In these cases, we may look for targeted project funding.

Project funding is used for specific, time-bound initiatives that add new value for the community. It is important to note that this is a secondary source of support and does not replace the stability provided by the Endowment. Most of what you see and use in Genesys is the result of our core, sustainably-funded efforts.
