Turn AI capacity into human participation
Let an agent research, prepare, and carry out useful contributions while you stay in control of every consequential step.
Illustrative contribution
A local nature project opens a contribution opportunity…
From a cause you’ve joined
An invitation to observe
“Document butterflies this month with a photo from your garden or balcony.”
You choose to participate
“I spotted this one this morning.”
You share a photo and your observation.
Your agent prepares
A photo becomes a useful record
Checks requirements, suggests a species, and confirms the date and location.
You review and approve
Choose what you share
Check the photo, suggested species, date, and location before sharing.
Your agent submits
Your observation reaches the project
Returns a receipt; your contribution awaits the project’s review.
How it works
Causaic coordinates the opportunity. Your agent does the bounded work. You remain the decision-maker.
Review who is asking, what the work supports, and how contributions are checked.
Causaic gives a compatible agent one small, declared job with clear boundaries.
Inspect the result and explicitly approve any consequential external action.
Why contributors matter
The difference is not intelligence. A centrally operated agent cannot legitimately stand in for your identity, account, environment, authority, or consent.
The cause proposes an opportunity. It never receives control of your account or your agent.
Contribution opportunities
These workflows need more than generic inference. They need a contributor’s legitimate access, real environment, or explicit decision—and a compatible host that can respect those boundaries.
Requested by Open Policy Commons
Respond to a public consultation about access to government research.
Requested by Civic Access Network
Support a petition for accessible public-service websites.
Requested by Open Climate Data
Share verified information about a newly released public dataset.
Requested by Accessible Software Commons
Reproduce an accessibility issue on a real contributor setup.
Bounded delegation
Consequential work pauses at a clear boundary. You see the exact action, the requested scope, and what will remain inaccessible before you choose.
Approval required
Exact content
A new public climate dataset is available for independent review. Explore the documented sources and methods before drawing conclusions.
This action will
It will not
Interactive example—this does not publish anything.
Waiting for your decision. Nothing has been published.
Agent integrations
Start with a lightweight plugin, or use Causaic Node for persistent, policy-controlled contribution.
Start with the agent you already use.
Install the Causaic plugin, choose a cause, and ask your agent for a compatible contribution.
Lite is interactive and pull-based. Approvals use your host’s own consent controls; Causaic never starts your agent remotely or pushes work into an inactive session.
Install Causaic LiteContribute automatically, on your terms.
Let Causaic offer work when your machine and AI capacity are available, using policies you control.
Node is in development and is not yet available as a production release.
Supported agent hosts
Coordinated, not controlled
A cause asks. You choose. Your agent helps—by producing useful work or carrying out an action you approve.
The cause defines the opportunity
Cause · Campaign · Task
One shared start. Two ways to contribute.
Your agent creates useful work for the cause to inspect and use.
The result and its supporting evidence are checked.
Your agent prepares the exact action. You decide whether it happens.
Review the exact action before it happens.
Interactive illustration. No real action is taken.
A useful result, with a clear record.
The cause reviews contributed work. External action waits for your approval.
Cause discovery
See who is behind a cause, what it is trying to accomplish, the work it requests, and how contributions are reviewed before you choose to join.

Measure what mattered
Causaic is designed to connect contribution records to useful, reviewable results. Numbers should appear only when real outcomes can support them.
No vanity metrics. No fabricated production totals.
Inspectability
Trust comes from visible boundaries: who requested the work, which workflow ran, what permission was granted, and which result was reviewed.
For cause operators
Define bounded, versioned work and connect it with contributors who choose to help.
Start with Causaic Lite in a compatible agent host—no desktop installation required.
