Our approach is collaborative and impact-oriented
We encourage practitioners, academics and technologists to work together to address complex problems and find opportunities at the intersections of media technology
Participate in Programs
Journalism Fellowships
Starling’s Journalism Fellowship aims to identify individuals eager to tell the world’s most pressing stories, infusing reporting with secure ways to capture, store and verify digital content, including photos, video, data, and documents. We will road-test new technologies and incubate newsroom projects that strengthen data integrity.
Archive Accelerator
The Archive accelerator is a multi-day bootcamp offering non-technical audiences the introduction they need to understand, evaluate, and potentially adopt Web3 storage technologies. There are no skill prerequisites, but participants should have a specific set of data they are thinking of storing (including photos, videos, databases and/or documents).
Law Workshops & Mock Trials
We’re looking to partner with professionals in both law and intersecting fields, like journalists who report in conflict zones. We’re especially interested in connecting with legal practitioners who work in the Web3 space and understand the technological landscape.
Contribute to our Research
Industry Affiliates Program

Advisory Board and Affiliated Faculty
As an academic research center anchored in Stanford’s School of Engineering and the USC Shoah Foundation, our work is guided by a rigorous, scholarly approach. Join us and support our mission with a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach to projects.
Donations
If you’re in a position to support the development of Starling Labs in a sustainable way, we’d be happy to discuss our long term vision and how it fits into your philanthropic goals.
Work With Us
When Starling Lab has an opening, we post on the recruiting board maintained by the Filecoin Foundation for the Decentralized Web. In addition to our own job descriptions, they list openings at organizations that we often partner with. Most of these non-Starling opportunities are also connected to Web3.
Apply for a Fellowship with Starling Lab, a research center anchored at Stanford’s School of Engineering and USC’s Shoah Foundation. Propose your Journalism, Law, or History fellowship using our capture, store verify framework. Starling Lab is interested in supporting projects that advance History, Law, and Journalism through new applications of technology and open source tools, with grants of up to $20,000
