The source text explicitly states in section 1 of the transparency report: 'AW AlgorithmWatch gGmbH, Boyenstraße 41, 10115 Berlin, Germany, established 2017'. This directly confirms the claim that AlgorithmWatch's founded date is 2017. The additional context provided (initiative started end of 2015; registered as gGmbH in February 2017) is consistent with this, as the official founding/establishment date refers to the formal registration as gGmbH in 2017, not the earlier initiative phase.
