The content is Wikipedia.
Every article you see in Knowra comes from Wikipedia. We render a short preview — title, image, two-sentence hook — and a "Go deeper" button that takes you to the full article on Wikipedia. We don't write the encyclopedia; we just bring you to it.
Licensed CC BY-SA 4.0.
Wikipedia content is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0. We treat any derivative we generate — like the AI-written hooks — as falling under the same license. Attribution and the source link travel with every card.
We pledge 5% of revenue to Wikimedia.
For the first three years of meaningful revenue, 5% goes to the Wikimedia Foundation. If we get acquired, the pledge follows.
We try to be a good citizen of the API.
Every call to Wikipedia carries a User-Agent with a contact email. We cache aggressively so we don't hammer their servers, and we'll honor rate limits gracefully if we ever hit them. If you're from the Wikimedia community and we're doing something inconsiderate, write us: dev@knowra.space.
What we won't do.
We won't train models on Wikipedia content beyond the hooks we generate. We won't gate access to Wikipedia behind a paywall — every article is one tap away from the live source. We won't use Wikipedia content to imply Wikimedia endorses or is affiliated with Knowra.
