Fund the idea.
Build the thing.
Own the first run.
Original art, design, and limited-run physical Builds — each reviewed through an approved Build Plan before it can collect funds.
When payments are enabled, backers will be able to reserve approved Build Slots through Stripe. No Build may collect funds until its Build Plan has been reviewed.
How Build Backers Works

Build Backers reviews the Build Plan
Materials, pricing, production method, fulfilment risk, and delivery path are reviewed before the Build can collect funds.

Backers reserve approved First Run Slots, Supporter Credits, Collector Slots, or Acquisition Slots.
The Build is produced and tracked
