OpenSeed is a curated platform for early-stage startup funding that replaces traditional opaque funding with a transparent, milestone-based system. Founders can raise capital by setting clear milestones, and backers can contribute in USDC, with funds released only when verified goals are met. Key features include:
- Curated Selection: Only startups passing rigorous evaluation are listed.
- Global Participation: Backers contribute in USDC; participation is recorded as a proof-of-support NFT.
- Milestone Execution: Funds are released in tranches upon verified milestone completion.
- Protected Capital: Capital transfers are locked safely.
- Independent Verification: Third-party validation for every milestone.
- Reputation System: Global trust scores for founders.
- Ownership Receipts: Ownership-based funding records for backers.
OpenSeed is designed for execution-first founders seeking structured capital and backers looking for high-quality, accountable startups.
