Become a sponsor to The Psycopg Team
Why sponsor us
Psycopg is maintained by a small dedicated team and your sponsorship is what lets us grow. The priority is funding additional maintainer time so the project the Python and PostgreSQL community depends on becomes more resilient, better supported and built for the long term.
Funds go directly into the development and maintenance of Psycopg 3 and Psycopg 2, and the wider ecosystem of tools we maintain around Python and PostgreSQL. If you or your organisation rely on these in your infrastructure, sponsoring is a direct investment in keeping the software maintained, current and actively developed. Sponsors are listed on our sponsors page.
What we have built
The Psycopg team works at the intersection of Python and PostgreSQL. Our flagship project, Psycopg, has been the de-facto standard PostgreSQL adapter for Python for two decades. Psycopg 3, production-ready since late 2021, was built from the ground up for modern Python and PostgreSQL, with best-in-class performance and native async support. It is used across the ecosystem, from web frameworks and ORMs to data tools and cloud database services.
What we want to do
There is no shortage of things we want to build. Projects like replisome, a flexible replication and messaging framework for PostgreSQL, and pg_seldump, a more flexible alternative to pg_dump for selective data extraction, are waiting for the time to take them further. Beyond these, ongoing work on Psycopg itself, keeping pace with new PostgreSQL and Python releases, improving performance, and deepening the core integration, is constant and never really finished. Your support is what makes all of it possible.
If your work depends on Psycopg or any of the tools we maintain, we would love to hear from you. There are often ways to collaborate that benefit your project and the wider community at the same time.
Sponsorship
We welcome both monthly and one-off contributions - every level makes a real difference. Organisations can sponsor by invoice through GitHub, otherwise if you’d like to sponsor us outside of GitHub, and to discuss larger or multi-year contributions, please get in touch at sponsor@psycopg.org
Thank you for supporting open source! 💛
