I will probably create a Show HN thread very soon to officially announce it, but I am creating a startup that aims to cover these areas.

Essentially it's 'Reddit + Patreon for research'.

What is your business model?

We plan to take a cut of the crowdfunded transactions, like Patreon or Kickstarter does. We could also show academia-relevant ads on the sidebar. We will never paywall content on our platform.

Why is it on a ".ai" domain suffix?

The other ones were taken. :(
