Overview

Mozilla describes its work around openness, innovation, and opportunity on the internet. The Mozilla Project includes multiple organizations rather than a single product team. Its public overview connects those organizations to software, investment, community initiatives, and open-source tools.

Organizations and products

Mozilla Corporation makes Firefox, while MZLA makes Thunderbird. The Mozilla Foundation supports the broader mission. Distinguishing these organizations helps readers understand which part of Mozilla is responsible for a particular product or initiative.
