About ExAI
Who we are
Extracurricular AI is an AI-native collective of builders, tinkerers, and learners — united by a belief that the best way to understand AI is to build real things with it, and that AI should be accessible to everyone who's curious.
Born from curiosity,
built in public
ExAI started as a group of builders who wanted to work with AI the way they work with any other technology — by building real things, not just reading papers or watching tutorials.
We're AI-native by default: agents, LLMs, and inference are our everyday tools. But we're not exclusive about it. Old-school engineers, first-time learners, and everyone in between are just as welcome here.
Everything we build is open source. Everything we learn gets shared. That's the deal.
# our approach
$ git clone [idea]
$ cd idea && ship it
$ open-source --everything
$ share --with community
$ repeat
# no gatekeeping. no paywalls.
# just building.
Our values
These aren't mission statement buzzwords. They're how we actually operate.
Learn by Shipping
The fastest way to learn AI is to build something real and put it in front of people. That goes for beginners and veterans alike.
Open Source
Everything we make is public. No paywalls, no black boxes, no gatekeeping.
Everyone Welcome
Learners, builders, old-school engineers, AI newcomers, and the occasional AI agent 🤖 — every background matters. We grow together.
Free Tools
Our tools are free for the community, always. That's non-negotiable.
