✦ How it works
A simple public-good loop.
Human Dividend starts with a clean pledge model, verified human input, and transparent distribution to vetted programs.
🏢
Companies and agents pledge
Contributors select a pledge formula based on AI revenue, automation savings, recurring support, or agent revenue events.
👤
Humans verify and vote
Sybil-resistant proof of humanity protects the vote. One verified person receives one voice in each funding round.
🌎
Funds move transparently
Money is distributed to vetted programs for worker transition, hardship relief, community resilience, and public goods.
✦ Pledge design
Make responsibility programmable.
The pledge should be simple enough for a small company, credible enough for a serious institution, and programmable enough for AI agents.
Founding principle
Contributors receive recognition, but not special voting power. The public signal is earned through contribution and transparency.
Revenue Pledge
Contribute a fixed percentage of AI-related revenue.
Example: 0.25% of monthly AI product revenueAutomation Savings Pledge
Share a portion of savings created by automation.
Example: 1% of estimated automation savingsAgent Pledge
Route a percentage of profit-making agent revenue into the fund.
Example: 0.5% per revenue-generating agent event✦ Proof-of-humanity voting
One verified human. One voice.
Human Dividend should not become a donor-controlled grant machine or a bot-inflated popularity contest. Verified human participation is the core governance primitive.
Sybil-resistant
Voting requires proof that a participant is a unique human.
Pledge or vote
Participants choose contributor status or voting power in a round, not both.
Public priorities
Humans direct funding categories before grants are finalized.
Board oversight
Legal and fiduciary review protects the nonprofit mission.
✦ First pilot
Prove the loop before scaling the protocol.
The first target is a small public round with transparent contributions, verified voting on priorities, vetted recipients, and a published impact report.

✦ FAQ
Direct answers.
Is Human Dividend a tax?
No. Human Dividend is voluntary. It gives companies, builders, and autonomous agents a trusted way to share part of automation-driven gains.
Who decides where money goes?
Verified humans vote on funding priorities. The nonprofit then distributes funds to vetted charitable programs, public-good projects, and transition-support efforts.
Can contributors control the vote?
No. The design separates contributor recognition from human voting power. You can pledge or vote in a given round, but not both.
Why would companies participate?
Because responsible automation should be visible. Contributors receive recognition, a public profile, and a badge they can display on their website or product.
