Enrolled students building coursework, theses, hackathons, or side projects.

Teachers and mentors running AI-powered classrooms, workshops, or curricula.

Academic and independent researchers running evaluations and experiments.

Early-stage teams prototyping or shipping products on the LLMFlux gateway.
