What we do

ROOST is a community effort to build scalable and resilient safety infrastructure for the AI era.

Many organizations – big and small – still lack access to basic safety resources, hindering innovation and putting users at risk.

ROOST develops, maintains, and distributes open source building blocks to safeguard global users and communities. Backed by dedicated technical teams and leading experts, ROOST meets organizations where they are and provides hands-on support at every stage of their safety journey.

  • Child safety

    Many companies struggle to meet basic child safety needs because existing tools are either expensive, gate-kept, challenging to implement, and/or only partial solutions. ROOST works to close that digital safety gap.

  • Foundation model-powered content safeguards

    ROOST partners with leading developers to build a community of practice for foundation model-powered content safeguards. We identify and fill critical gaps in this space, for instance around specific training and evaluation datasets for content safety.

  • Core safety infrastructure

    ROOST focuses on high quality, open versions of core tools that immediately add value and avoid unnecessary duplication, such as rules engines, case management systems, review consoles, wrappers that provide standardized data formats and a unified interface to different APIs, etc.
