# Sentient Foundation > Open-source AGI foundation uniting builders, researchers, and communities to develop transparent, collaborative artificial general intelligence. Sentient Foundation advances open-source AGI development by uniting builders, researchers, and communities to create artificial general intelligence that is transparent, collaborative, and owned by everyone. The foundation supports the creation of ROMA (Recursive Open Meta-Agent), an open-source framework for building powerful multi-agent AI systems, and operates the GRID, the world's largest open intelligence network connecting over 100 AI models, agents, tools, and research projects. - **ROMA Framework** - An open-source Recursive Open Meta-Agent framework that enables developers to build powerful AI systems where multiple agents work together seamlessly, ranking among the best in complex multi-source reasoning. - **GRID Network** - The world's largest open intelligence network connecting over 100 AI models, agents, tools, and research projects into one unified system for collaborative AI development. - **Open AGI Summit** - The world's leading open-source AI conference bringing together researchers, developers, and communities, featuring speakers like Vitalik Buterin, Balaji Srinivasan, and Sandeep Nailwal. - **Grants and Fellowships** - Funding programs that empower researchers and builders to pursue bold ideas in open AGI, with access to mentorship, research circles, and global event opportunities. - **Research Publications** - Active research output including ODS and OML papers published on arXiv, contributing to the advancement of open-source AI methodologies. - **Global Community** - Multi-language support including Chinese, Korean, and Japanese, with events and symposiums held worldwide to grow the open AGI movement. To get started with Sentient Foundation, developers can explore the ROMA framework on GitHub, apply for grants and fellowships for 2026, or join the community through their social channels. The foundation accepts applications from builders working on open-source AGI projects and provides resources through their research publications and events. ## Features - ROMA open-source multi-agent framework - GRID open intelligence network - Open AGI Summit conferences - Grants and fellowships for AGI builders - Research publications and papers - Mentorship and research circles - Multi-language community support - Global events and symposiums ## Platforms WEB, API ## Pricing Free ## Links - Website: https://sentient.foundation/ - Documentation: https://github.com/sentient-agi/ROMA - Repository: https://github.com/sentient-agi/ROMA - EveryDev.ai: https://www.everydev.ai/tools/sentient-foundation
