FAQ

What's a DAO and why do I need one?

A DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) is a group of people governed by on-chain rules, not by a CEO. Useful for: investment clubs, protocol governance, treasury management, grant programs, and any collective where you want transparent voting and unspendable-without-vote treasury.

How much does deployment cost?

The DAOForge platform is free. You only pay gas. On Polygon/Base/Arbitrum, a full DAO deployment costs ~$1-5. On Ethereum mainnet, expect $40-200 depending on gas.

Is it really 10 minutes?

Wizard takes ~5 min to configure. Deployment txs take ~3 min (mainnet ~5). Your DAO is live and votable as soon as the deploy tx confirms.

Can I migrate from Aragon or Snapshot?

Yes. We have one-click migration tools for Aragon DAOs (treasury + members preserved) and a Snapshot-to-on-chain upgrade path.

What about legal wrappers?

Pro and Foundation tiers include legal entity setup (Wyoming DAO LLC, Marshall Islands, or Cayman foundation). We handle the paperwork. You get the on-chain treasury + a real legal entity.

Can I customize after deployment?

Yes. Add plugins, change voting rules, upgrade modules — all through DAO votes. The base contract is upgrade-locked, but plugins are hot-swappable.

Your DAO is 10 minutes away.
