COVID-19 Open Source Resources

We hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. Like most companies, we are searching for a way to be helpful as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to unfold. We’re committed to supporting the efforts of others by assisting in the distribution and development of open source AI assistants that provide information about COVID-19, how to stay safe, and where to seek help. We've compiled a list of COVID-19 AI projects, and we invite the community to help us build on it, use it to stay informed, and help others where possible.

We'd like to hear from you

If you're working on an open source, AI project related to the COVID-19 pandemic, if you have additional resources that you think would benefit the community, or if you're looking for help with a COVID-19 project you're working on, please reach out to us at covid@rasa.com.
