Targeting small-time private funders seems like the niche to go for when you are recruiting them. Getting the funder/researcher flywheel started will be slow/difficult at first.

I can't imagine the NSF/NIH/DOE engaging with something like this -- they have all the money, and they are bound by federal law, so they set all the rules.

Yep you're right––I probably should've specified this. I think larger/gov't-operated grants probably won't use this, but I'm hoping smaller and private funders like you suggested would be the way to go

Thanks for the advice!
