Announcement 1: after months and months of hard work from @hashbrown490 and our eng team, we've built the new back end that allows for API and Multiplayer.
Next week 20-30 users who have plans to build off API, or have multiplayer experiments they want to run will get 1st access
Announcement 2: We're starting a fellowship program where we are giving grants to researchers to explore the space of [[Tools for Thought]], [[Collective Intelligence]], [[Augmenting The Human Intellect]].
@dhrumilwbc is our first "Roam Fellow", more to come on that front later.
Announcement 3: We've committed 1M from our balance sheet, and 1M from our option pool to a [[Roam Fund]].
For makers building Tools for Thought generally...
And founders building new products/experiences via our API, or content businesses off Roam multiplayer specifically.
Credit where credit is due. Would not have thought of giving the companies we invest in the option of taking shares in @RoamResearch if not for early encounters with @ivanhzhao and @NotionHQ
If you build something we learn from you should see upside too
And if you're wondering how to apply... for fellowship, Roam Fund, or to join our core team
