The groundwork is in place

In July we set out the order we would work in: groundwork first, then the platform. The groundwork is done, and the registration details and tax orders are on our legal & financials page.

What is in place

CanvasCode Foundation was incorporated on 11 August 2026 as a Section 8 (not-for-profit) company and registered on NGO Darpan on 14 August. It holds provisional registration under sections 332 and 354 of the Income-tax Act, 2025, for tax years 2026–27 to 2028–29.

Our safeguarding commitment, privacy policy, and terms are published and have been reviewed by legal counsel.

What we’re building now

We’re building the platform around four steps: identify, guide, coach, connect. Coaches do the work, supported by responsible AI. A coach stays involved in every decision, and the AI works within set limits built for young people’s safety.

The platform launches with a pilot: a small number of partners, a small first group of young people, and success bars that we set and publish before we start.

Learning from the ground up

As we build the platform, we are shaping the organization around what we find at the grassroots. We are meeting young people, schools, colleges, and the organizations that work with them, to learn the real problems they face and find the ones CanvasCode can help solve. What we learn decides what the platform does first.

What you can do now

Schools, colleges, and organizations that work with young people can start a conversation on the partners page. People who coach professionally can apply on the mentors page.
