Participate
Build the public research base for faith-facing AI.
Fide AI works with sponsors, churches, researchers, builders, pastors, parents, schools, and ministries to turn open research questions into benchmarks, evaluations, field studies, and practical guidance for responsible AI use.
Participation model
Sponsor
Review
Pilot
Contribute
Participation supports public evidence. It does not buy findings, endorsements, rankings, certification claims, or launch approval.
Pathways
Five ways to make the work stronger.
Each pathway is designed to produce public-interest research, evaluation practice, public learning, or guidance tested with real institutions.
01
Sponsors, foundations, institutions
Sponsor research infrastructure
Support public benchmarks, reviewer panels, datasets, field studies, and technical reports that churches and institutions can inspect.
Discuss sponsorship →
02
Researchers, theologians, pastors, evaluators
Contribute expertise
Help define methods, review rubrics, failure modes, theological boundaries, and calibration practices for faith-facing AI systems.
Join the reviewer network →
03
Churches, schools, seminaries, ministries
Bring an institutional workflow
Share real adoption questions around pastoral care, education, source use, oversight, disclosure, buying decisions, or human handoff.

04
Builders, product teams, institutions
Join a public learning evaluation
Take part in a review that can help others learn from the process, such as a summary with identifying details removed, reusable checklist, safe test scenarios, or a case study with written permission.

05
Parents, educators, ministry leaders
Share family and community context
Ground the research in the everyday decisions families face around tutoring, companionship, formation, dependence, and disclosure.
Share context →
Active agendas
Start from a concrete research question.
These agenda pages organize the current public calls and make it easier to find where sponsorship, expertise, field access, or review would help.
Evaluation methods
Benchmarks, reviewer training, tool reviews, and public standards for evidence.

Independence
Participation does not buy a conclusion.
The work is designed around public-interest independence. Sponsors, clients, reviewers, builders, pastors, parents, and institutions can participate under published rules without buying favorable findings, preferred timing, endorsement, certification, or product claims.
