AI That Strengthens Democracy – Not the Few Who Own It.

We're building a future where artificial intelligence strengthens democracy instead of undermining it. Join us to make AI a tool for civic empowerment across Europe.

01What is Civic AI?

Public Infrastructure for Democracy

We view Civic AI as a form of public infrastructure designed to foster citizen empowerment and reclaim individual agency within our democratic systems. Our goal is to spark democracy-led innovation through broad co-creation, crowdsourcing, and diverse stakeholder engagement.

Throughout 2026, defense tech pushes a future where private or governmental interests - not democratic institutions or the people - dictate the rules of AI. Eumans fights for a democracy-led alternative where artificial intelligence remains accountable to citizens and serves the common good.

03Strategic initiative · Right now

Not All Platforms Are The Problem

Europe is right to protect children from addictive, attention-harvesting platforms. But the EU Kids' Act risks putting every “social media” service in the same bucket, including open, community-run networks like the Fediverse. The harm comes from the algorithm, not from the network.
