+# Sponsors
+
+opencodex is an independent, MIT-licensed project maintained without company backing. Provider
+sponsorships fund maintenance and keep the proxy current with every upstream protocol change.
+This page is the public rule set: what a sponsor gets, who qualifies for which tier, and how to
+ask. It is written so that a sponsor, a contributor, and a user reading the README all see the
+same terms.
+
+"Sponsor" here means a paying provider sponsor. It is unrelated to the `maintainer-sponsored`
+label in [`MAINTAINERS.md`](./MAINTAINERS.md), which is about a maintainer vouching for a
+contributor's change to a restricted surface.
+
+Sponsorship buys placement and maintenance attention. It never buys a change in routing behavior,
+a default model, a weaker security default, or an exception to the review policy in
+[`MAINTAINERS.md`](./MAINTAINERS.md). A sponsored preset goes through the same registry
+pattern, typecheck, tests, and review as any other provider.
+
+## Tiers
+
+Two tiers, split by what the sponsor is.
+
+### Main — model developers
+
+Reserved for organizations that train or host their own foundation models (the OpenAI,
+Anthropic, Google, Moonshot, MiniMax class). API relays and gateways are never sold Main
+regardless of budget.
+
+Every model developer is supported as a first-class provider whether or not it sponsors; that
+part does not change. A Main sponsor additionally receives:
+
+- The single banner slot above the sponsor table in the README (one at a time; see
+  [Placement](#placement)).
+- First mention in the README login and provider lines (the "Log in once" OAuth paragraph and
+  the Providers & adapters summary, both marked with a `sponsors:main-first-mention` comment)
+  and priority ordering in the built-in provider picker.
+- Everything in the Standard tier below.
+
+### Standard — relays, gateways, and API resellers
+
+For OpenAI-compatible relays, routers, gateways, and other resellers of model access. A Standard
+sponsor receives:
+
+- One row in the sponsor table: logo (about 150px wide, linking to the sponsor URL), a
+  "Thanks to X for sponsoring this project!" line, and a blurb of up to about 80 English words
+  supplied by the sponsor and published verbatim. The maintainer may decline or require edits to
+  text that is false, misleading, disparages third parties, or breaches applicable law or GitHub
+  policy. A second-language blurb (for example Chinese) may run alongside the English one.
+- A built-in provider preset (`ocx provider select <id>`) shipped in a public npm release,
+  listed near the top of the provider picker in the dashboard and CLI and marked as a sponsor
+  there. (The registry field and picker ordering that back this land with the first sponsor
+  preset; today the picker follows registry order.)
+- A detailed entry on the [providers page](https://opencodex.me/guides/providers/) of the docs
+  site.
+- Maintenance: if a release breaks the preset or its adapter, the maintainer fixes it; issues
+  filed against that provider are triaged first. There is no response-time SLA.
+
+## Placement
+
+The README sponsor section sits directly under **Quick start**, before the Docker Compose
+details, so it is on screen before a first-time visitor scrolls. It carries one line of context
+and the placements themselves:
+
+1. One Main banner (empty until a Main sponsor signs).
+2. The Standard table, one row per sponsor, in order of signing date.
+
+The README says nothing else about sponsorship; tiers, pricing, and contact channels live only on
+this page.
+
+The translated READMEs under [`readme/`](./readme) carry one linking line right after their
+own quick-start block instead of duplicating the section, so a sponsor change is one edit in
+English.
+
+## Pricing
+
+Pricing is by inquiry; there is no public rate card. Sponsors who sign before the repository
+reaches 20,000 GitHub stars lock in their rate for the length of their agreement. Rates rise
+once that mark is passed.
+
+Agreements are integration-scoped: they name the deliverables above, anchor the term to the npm
+release that ships them, and carry no marketing obligations on either side. Both sides can walk
+away with a pro-rated refund of unused months if the integration cannot be delivered.
+
+## How to ask
+
+- X: DM [@claudeebum](https://x.com/claudeebum)
+- Discord: [discord.gg/JEaPEtkHwh](https://discord.gg/JEaPEtkHwh), channel `#sponsors`
+- Email: jun@lidgeai.com
+
+Send what you are (model developer or relay), the base URL and model list of your
+OpenAI-compatible endpoint, and the tier you want. The maintainer replies with terms and a
+draft agreement.
+
+## What sponsors do not get
+
+- No influence on routing defaults, failover order, quota policy, or which provider a user's
+  request reaches.
+- No relaxation of the [security review](./MAINTAINERS.md) that applies to authentication,
+  credentials, or workflow changes.
+- No access to user data, request logs, or telemetry; opencodex does not collect any.
+- No say over unrelated issues, pull requests, or the release schedule.
+
+## Current sponsors
+
+Listed in the README sponsor section. This page carries the rules; the README carries the
+names.
