Nobody should have to pay to understand AI.

AI is changing how people work, learn and make decisions. We explain it in plain language, in 40 languages, with no ads, no paywall and no account needed.

We are a small nonprofit. We don't sell data and we don't charge learners. Gifts from people who use the site are what keep it free for the next person.

If AI Understanding helped you make sense of something, please give what feels right. Even $5 a month makes a real difference.

Вопросы доноров, ответы.

Поговорите с человекомПланируете более крупный подарок, грант DAF или подарок в чью-то память? Электронная почта info@aiunderstanding.org. Мы отвечаем в течение одного рабочего дня.

Scam warning: AI Understanding never calls you to ask for a donation or to promise a refund. We only email from @aiunderstanding.org addresses. If someone told you to donate to us as a fee or for a refund, it's a scam.

Облагаются ли пожертвования налогом?

Yes. AI Understanding is an IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) public charity (EIN 41-3273048). Contributions are tax-deductible in the United States to the extent permitted by law. Online gifts are processed by our own Stripe checkout, which emails your tax receipt immediately. Gifts made through PayPal Giving Fund are receipted by PayPal Giving Fund. Gifts sent to us directly by wire, ACH, DAF or stock are receipted by AI Understanding.

Can I get a refund on a donation?

No. All donations are final and non-refundable, as stated at checkout. If you were charged twice or for a different amount than you chose, email info@aiunderstanding.org within 14 days and we will correct it. Monthly and yearly gifts can be cancelled at any time to stop future payments.

Куда именно идут мои деньги?

Your donation supports mission delivery and the infrastructure behind it: new and updated guides, quizzes, tools, translations, accessibility, hosting, search, security, and responsible operations.

Какие способы оплаты я могу использовать?

Online gifts run through our own Stripe checkout, which accepts credit and debit cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay, plus Link or bank debit where Stripe offers them. You can optionally choose to cover the processing fee yourself so 100% of your selected amount reaches the mission. For bank wire, ACH, donor-advised fund grants or appreciated stock, email info@aiunderstanding.org and we will send instructions.

Могу ли я давать ежемесячно или ежегодно вместо одного раза?

Yes — choose Monthly or Yearly in the checkout above and Stripe will bill your card automatically on that schedule until you cancel. You can update your card, download receipts or cancel any time in your donor portal at https://billing.stripe.com/p/login/eVqfZgeL54j43kX5qDb7y00 (sign in with the email you gave at checkout), or just email info@aiunderstanding.org. You can also email info@aiunderstanding.org to set up a standing bank transfer instead, which has no processing fees at all.

Принимаете ли вы акции, DAF или банковские переводы?

Yes, and these are the most efficient ways to give. We handle DAF grants, appreciated stock, bank wires and corporate matching directly rather than through a platform, so nothing is deducted in fees. Email info@aiunderstanding.org and we'll send our EIN documentation, brokerage DTC details and banking instructions, plus a written acknowledgment.

Как мне пожертвовать 1 000 000 долларов или сделать большой преобразующий подарок?

We welcome transformational contributions and major gifts ($10,000 to $1,000,000+). For gifts of this scale, donors typically give via direct bank wire / ACH transfer, donor-advised funds (DAF), or appreciated stock to bypass credit card processing fees (saving tens of thousands in merchant cuts) and maximize legal tax deductions. Our founder personally coordinates major gift agreements, program endowments, and custom impact reports. Reach out directly at info@aiunderstanding.org.

Могу ли я перевести средства непосредственно из моего банка?

Yes. Direct wire and ACH transfers allow 100% of your donation to reach the mission with zero processor deductions. Email info@aiunderstanding.org with the subject 'Wire Transfer Instructions' to receive our direct banking routing details and EIN documentation.

Могут ли подарки быть ограничены конкретной образовательной программой или предоставляться на постоянной основе?

Yes. Major donors and philanthropic foundations can designate contributions toward specific initiatives—such as our Open AI Curriculum, AI Safety & Alignment Track, Global Language Translations (40 languages), or permanent curriculum endowment. Formal gift agreements with named recognition are available for gifts of $25,000 and above.

Является ли моя информация о доноре конфиденциальной?

We do not sell or rent donor data. Stripe handles payment details under its own privacy and PCI-compliance terms and shares donation records with us only as needed for acknowledgment, reporting, and donor support. You may give anonymously where the selected platform allows it.
