Bug Fixes
Diagnose and resolve reproducible software defects.
Open source & community engineering
Good code deserves good company.
Have a bug you can't get to? We'd love to help.
Technology moves forward when people help each other. We use open-source software every day—and we believe in giving back. Through Rase Gives Back, we dedicate available engineering capacity to meaningful software problems at no charge.
Where we can contribute
Thoughtful help for real engineering problems.
These are examples, not guaranteed services. We select work based on community value, feasibility, security, licensing, and available capacity.
Performance Improvements
Improve inefficient code, queries, or bottlenecks.
Integrations
Help connect APIs, services, and compatible platforms.
Testing & Reliability
Add regression tests and improve software stability.
Developer Tooling
Improve workflows, automation, and developer experience.
Open Source Improvements
Contribute maintainable enhancements welcomed by project maintainers.
How it works
A careful path from request to contribution.
- 1
Tell Us About Your Project
Share a repository, existing issue, or explanation of the engineering problem.
- 2
We Review Requests
We evaluate community impact, feasibility, security, licensing, and capacity.
- 3
We Select Opportunities
Suitable requests enter our engineering queue. Submission does not guarantee selection.
- 4
We Investigate and Build
Our engineers, supported by AI-powered tools, prepare a solution with appropriate testing and review.
- 5
We Contribute Back
When appropriate, we deliver a patch, pull request, regression test, or documented findings.
All external contributions remain subject to repository rules and maintainer approval.
Who can apply?
Built for people building useful things.
Public open-source maintainers, independent developers, nonprofits, educational projects, startups, and other organizations may submit requests. Public open-source projects generally receive priority.
Private repositories may be considered selectively where there is meaningful community or social benefit. This program is not an offer of unlimited free commercial development.
Our commitment
- No charge for work explicitly accepted under this program.
- No obligation to purchase services, promote us, refer others, or provide a testimonial.
- Responsible human ownership of AI-assisted engineering.
- Respect for maintainers, contribution rules, licenses, and security.
- Honest communication about capacity and limitations.
- Secure, purpose-limited handling of project information.
Submissions are requests for consideration, not binding service agreements.
Visible work, verified honestly

Tell us where you're stuck.
Share enough non-sensitive context for an initial review. Please do not send passwords, tokens, credentials, private source archives, production data, or customer information.
Private repository access is discussed separately only after initial review and written agreement on scope, confidentiality, access, and ownership.
Building better software, together.
Some of the best software in the world exists because someone took the time to help someone else. We'd love to continue that tradition.
