Our goal is to support the research community in the pursuit of general intelligence. We partner with companies to offer compute credits, specialized datasets and grant opportunities.
Below is a list of our current partners who want to support ARC Prize 2025 participants. If you'd like to partner with us or want to suggest we add someone to the list, please reach out to us at team@arcprize.org.
Compute Partners
Lambda
