Overview

Mission

To provide unrestricted access to no-cost, highly-accurate time to any computer on the internet.

What it reported doing in 2022

Running internet time servers: publicntp deployed 35 internet time servers. The servers responded to over200 million requests for highly accurate time.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
