Why sponsor us

Psycopg is maintained by a very small team, and for most of its history that has meant essentially one person. Your sponsorship is what lets us change that: the priority is funding additional maintainer time so the project the Python and PostgreSQL community depends on does not rest on a single pair of hands.

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 helps keep 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.

If your work depends on Psycopg or any of the tools we maintain, we would like 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, and every level helps. Organisations can also sponsor by invoice through GitHub.
