The community chooses which project deserves to be funded

## How does Hydra Launchpad work?

<figure><img src="/files/JnveNfgx2UdV5A48vd5l" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

First, founders who wish to launch their project with us must submit their project idea following the instructions that will be released via the application form on discord.

After the Hydra team has reviewed the project, the founders may be called in for an interview to present their team and the idea.

If all goes well and the project shows promise, it will be released to the Hydra Project Holders to approve or reject joining the Hydra Launchpad.

The selected projects will compete in a vote that will be decided by the community. Only one project will be funded at a time.

Once this process is concluded, the Hydra Team will establish, together with the approved project team, the terms of financing and support for the launch, carrying out the project's DOXX and assisting in its developing stages.

To make it clear. The Hydra team will not be part of the development team of any project to be launched, but will assist with its development.

## What are the benefits of launching a project with a Hydra Badge?

* Visibility of an engaged community that will actively participate in the growth of your project.
* DOXXED by Hydra.
* Help with project funding.
* Assistance with marketing, advertising and launching your project.
* Security and reliability in launching your project's CNFTs and Tokens.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://hydra-project.gitbook.io/litepaper/launchpad.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
