# Star

> Live startup investing.

Star enables blockchain-based startup fundraising through livestreamed token launches on Solana, where projects pitch to expert panels while raising capital in real time.

Star operates a token launchpad platform combining livestreaming with decentralized fundraising, where founders present projects to curated panels while conducting public token sales. The platform integrates Meteora liquidity pools on Solana to facilitate token graduation mechanisms similar to pump.fun, requiring projects to reach thresholds before accessing larger liquidity. Projects can raise USDC or launch native tokens, with AI-based code review from founders' GitHub repositories as part of the vetting process.
