The costs are already covered
This page is not a fundraise. The running costs of StudyBrave are small and are being paid by whoever runs it, and that is not going to change. Nothing here is gated, nothing is sold, and no part of the library depends on money arriving.
It exists for one reason: some people want to offset a cost they benefit from, and refusing that outright is its own kind of posturing. So the costs are listed, the addresses are listed, and that is the entire offer.
What it costs to run
- Domain
- about $10 a yearRegistered 2026-08-02.
- Server
- nothing additionalRuns on a machine that already exists and already hosts other things.
- Model inference
- nothingEveryone brings their own API key. There is no hosted tier to pay for.
- Everything else
- timeWhich is the actual cost, and not one anybody can send.
Addresses
None published yet. When there are any they will appear here and in support.json in the repository at the same time, and not before.
What sending anything does not buy
An anonymous project publishing a crypto address is, structurally, indistinguishable from a scam. That is not a reason to hide the fact — it is a reason to be specific about what this is not.
- No tiers, no membership, no early access. Every protocol is public the moment it exists. There is no version of this library that pays better.
- No token, no coin, no NFT, and there never will be. Nothing here is an investment and nothing here appreciates.
- No influence. Sending something does not move a proposal up the queue or change how it is assessed. If that ever appeared to happen, the queue would be worthless and so would everything built on it.
- No refunds, and no way to issue one. Crypto transfers are final and we cannot identify who sent what. Send only what you would not mind losing.
- No receipt, no accounting statement, no charitable status. This is not a registered organisation. Whether it is taxable where you live is your question to answer, and not one this page can help with.
Why crypto only
Every conventional payment processor requires a legal identity on the receiving end. Publishing one would end the anonymity that the rest of this project depends on — the claim here is that authority comes from protocols that work and evidence anyone can check, not from a name you are asked to trust.
Crypto is the only method that does not force that trade. It is chosen for that reason and no other. If it makes you uncomfortable, the correct response is to send nothing: the library is free, complete, and does not change either way.
The most useful thing anyone can send is not money. It is a correction.
