Robot Framework ecosystem project funding 2026
The Robot Framework Foundation pays 1,500 to 7,500 euro for ecosystem tools. Proposals are due by the end of September 2026.
Robot Framework ecosystem project funding 2026 is a call from the Robot Framework Foundation. It funds a limited number of projects in the Robot Framework tool ecosystem. Each project can receive 1,500 to 7,500 euro. The foundation sets the exact amount from the scope and the impact. It also says funding is not guaranteed and depends on the money it has available.
The call welcomes a new tool or library, and also work to maintain or improve a project that already exists. A proposal should describe the scope and the benefit. The call page does not state a country limit.
Submit the proposal form on the Pretalx page for Ecosystem Projects 2026 before the end of September 2026. Some projects may be chosen before that date, so the foundation asks people to send proposals early. If a proposal looks interesting, the committee may hold a 10 minute interview. The foundation board makes the final decision. Selected projects are announced about two weeks after the deadline. Work is expected to start in mid October 2026 and to finish by the end of 2026.
The foundation says it wants ideas that help the ecosystem, including keeping an existing project healthy. It also says some projects may need less money, or only part of the requested amount, and it asks applicants to include a budget.
