What does the Gap Map include?

The Gap Map v0.1 details 421 products: 266 software tools and libraries, 85 models, 50 datasets, and 20 hardware projects from 228 organizations. An additional 24,400 artifacts form the uncategorized long tail of the ecosystem.

Where can I access the data?

The underlying data—1,184 YAML files plus notebooks, schemas, and scripts—is released under an MIT license in the currentai-org/os-ai-map GitHub account. The project also provides 16,185 GitHub repositories as a CSV file accessible via Datasette Lite.

Current AI is a non-profit founded in February 2025 at the AI Action Summit in Paris, described as 'a global partnership building a public option for AI,' with $400m already committed in backing.

What happened
Current AI, a non-profit founded in February 2025 and backed by $400m in committed capital, released a Gap Map documenting the open-source AI ecosystem. The map details 421 products in depth—266 software tools and libraries, 85 models, 50 datasets, and 20 hardware projects from 228 organizations—organized across 14 categories and 3 stack layers. The underlying data (1,184 YAML files) was released under an MIT license on GitHub.
Why it matters
The Gap Map represents a structured effort to understand and catalog open-source AI infrastructure at a time when such systems are increasingly central to business strategy. By making the data publicly available and machine-readable, it enables developers and organizations to identify gaps in the ecosystem and understand what tools and models exist across different layers of the AI stack.
What to watch
The project also tracks 16,185 GitHub repositories as a public dataset. A remaining 24,400 artifacts in the open-source AI ecosystem remain uncategorized in the long tail, awaiting future research and citation.
