Open knowledge. Open source. Open gates.

Demystifying technology and empowering digital autonomy

Our Mission

Project Opengates is an educational initiative focused on AI literacy, robotics, privacy rights, and open-source technology. We aim to demystify emerging technologies and empower individuals to protect their digital autonomy.

In an age of increasing surveillance, algorithmic opacity, and rapid advances in AI and robotics, understanding technology isn't optional — it's essential. We break down complex topics into accessible explanations, provide practical guidance for protecting your privacy, and champion the open-source tools and open hardware that put control back in your hands.
