The community comes first
The nosource agreement asks every patron to give their own community the first opportunity to provide support — so local relationships and knowledge are rewarded before anyone else is called.
For service providers
nosource fixes the price of software at zero and moves the value to you — the people who make it work in the real world. AI does not compete with you; it hands you superpowers so you serve more patrons, better, for less.
The provider model
The nosource agreement asks every patron to give their own community the first opportunity to provide support — so local relationships and knowledge are rewarded before anyone else is called.
When a patron needs more than their community can supply, they turn to providers registered with nosource.ai. Registration is how you become discoverable for that overflow work.
You state an hourly rate before any engagement. Patrons compare rates in the open. No hidden quotes, no race to the bottom — just honest, visible pricing.
Use AI to move past writing code toward capturing what the patron actually wants and delivering it. Higher throughput at a fair rate is the whole point.
