After months of gestation, I’m happy to announce that EffectiveAltruism.org just went live. The aim of the site is to act as a central landing page for anyone interested in the movement, from philanthropists to university students.


Regard this version of the site as a minimal viable product that will continue to change as we encounter ideas for improvement. If you have one or more of these ideas, please enter a note here. I’d love to read it!


Some future updates could include:

  • Short descriptions under each EA organization on the “Organizations” page

  • An improved engagement funnel, with different ways to engage EA by different levels of commitment

  • Updated “About” copy to better demonstrate that EA is an intellectual movement

  • Profiles of individual EAs


Lastly, I’m currently a bit bottlenecked between the imminent launch of EA Ventures and planning for EA Global (the rebranded Summit). So: if you’re motivated to play a part in creating the site that will (hopefully) inspire thousands of future EAs, shoot me an email! I’m at tyleralterman@gmail.com.

Cool. Is the site targeted at people new to EA?

As someone that already knows the basic concepts and the organizations, I don't feel a need to return to the website other than to see what's changed.

Maybe you could link to the EA Forum and the EA Job Board? Have a news feed containing original content, news articles, blog posts, or .impact hackpad posts? Have or link to a page of open research questions?

Features that would get people to return after they've become familiar with the basics.

Cool. Is the site targeted at people new to EA? Yup!
