The future of AI education will be built together.
Merdot is seeking visionary partners across AI, cloud, education, CSR and research to put capable, responsible AI in the hands of verified students across India. If your organisation wants to help build it, this is your invitation.
- Verified Student Program
- Responsible AI
- Privacy First
- Transparent Reporting
- Built in India
To be clear · Merdot is seeking these partnerships. We do not claim any organisation already sponsors or partners with us.
Merdot Partnerships is built for organisations that want their support to reach real students and show up clearly in a report.
Real, measurable impact
Your support reaches verified students who genuinely need capable AI to learn · not a vague cause, a specific, countable outcome you can point to.
Grant-ready transparency
Built for review from day one · clear reporting on where support goes and who it reaches, so a CSR, foundation or grant team can defend the spend.
Responsible by design
Privacy-first, fair-use capped, and built in India for Indian students · a program you can put your name behind with confidence.
Every category below is support Merdot is actively seeking. We do not claim any organisation is already a partner or sponsor.

- 1
A partner steps in
An organisation contributes AI credits, cloud, funding, reach or expertise.
- 2
We verify students
Every recipient is a verified student · access is reviewed, not open to anyone.
- 3
A student learns
Fair-use AI access reaches a learner who could not otherwise afford it.
- 4
Impact you can report
The outcome is transparent and countable · support you can defend and share.
AI credits become learning
Model credits are spent only on verified students, capped at fair-use, so every rupee of compute goes to genuine learning.
Cloud lets it scale
Infrastructure credits keep the program fast and reliable as it grows toward its target of reaching students across India.
Reach finds the students
Education partners help us find and verify learners who need this most · the reach we cannot build alone.
Funding fills the gap
CSR and grant support covers what credits do not, and is reported transparently so it holds up to review.
These are the specific kinds of support that would move the program forward today. Each is a request · none is secured.
Actively seeking
Open invitation- AI model credits or discounted inference from a model provider
- Cloud compute and storage credits to run the program at scale
- CSR or grant funding directed at verified-student AI access
- Education partners who can help reach and verify students
- Research collaborators on responsible AI in education
Support should be defensible. These are the standards Merdot Partnerships is built around.
Clear reporting
We report where support goes and who it reaches, in terms a CSR, foundation or grant team can put in front of a board.
Verified recipients only
Every recipient is a verified student. Access is reviewed and fair-use capped · never open to anyone who signs up.
Grant-ready by design
Built for due diligence from day one · documentation, scope and accountability a reviewer can actually check.
Privacy first
Student data is handled with a privacy-first posture. We share impact, never sell or expose the people behind it.

OngoingAn ongoing partnership that scales as the program does · a relationship, not a one-off.
The difference between money that disappears into a general fund and support you can trace to a student who learns.
| Aspect | Traditional donation | Merdot partnership |
|---|---|---|
| Where it goes | Often pooled into general funds · hard to trace to an outcome. | Directed at verified-student AI access · a specific, countable use. |
| Who benefits | Broad and unspecified · difficult to name a recipient. | Verified students · access is reviewed, never open to anyone. |
| Reporting | A receipt and a thank-you, with little ongoing visibility. | Grant-ready reporting on where support went and who it reached. |
| Accountability | Trust-based, with limited due-diligence surface. | Built for review · documentation, scope and fair-use limits. |
| The relationship | Usually a one-off transaction. | An ongoing partnership that scales with the program. |
