AI for Aid · Humanitarian AI Adoption Register

Find AI tools for humanitarian and development work.

We help humanitarian and development practitioners find AI tools that others have already built, and see what it would take to use them. Free and not-for-profit.

How it works

  1. The problem: tools are scattered

    We bring them together

    From reports, directories, GitHub, Hugging Face and case studies, into one place.

  2. The problem: hard to judge

    We check what each one takes

    • Is it still running?
    • Can you get it?
    • What does it cost?
    • Does it work offline?
    • Which languages?

  3. The problem: good tools don't travel

    We match them to your context

    By country and crisis, topic or kind of solution, including what worked elsewhere.

Good to know

We show how sure we are

Solid: the source says it. Half-filled: we worked it out, and say how. Dashed: nobody has recorded it.

Gaps are shown, not hidden

Information about these tools is often thin. Where it is, the entry says so.

Corrections are welcome

If you know something we have wrong, tell us. Every change is logged.
