Ecosystem
One mission, many roots
The Doug Liles / GoodSam ecosystem is a family of ten connected AI ventures, founded by Doug Liles — founder of the Good Samaritan Institute and Good Combinator and an elected Special District Commissioner. Together they span civic governance, environmental stewardship, education, research commercialization, and community. Every one is built on a single thesis: AI should be auditable, explainable, and useful to the people it claims to serve.
