The Problem
Traditional solutions are complex, time-consuming, and often require technical expertise.
The Solution
Spawned provides an AI-powered platform that makes building fast, simple, and accessible to everyone.
The Reality of Starting From Zero
You have the idea, but not the audience. Here's how to begin.
Many potential creators are stalled by the belief they need a large Twitter following or Discord server to launch. This isn't true. The traditional 'pump' model relies on hype and often leaves creators with no sustainable revenue. A better approach exists: building a genuine, invested holder base from day one by offering real value and shared incentives.
Platforms like pump.fun offer a 0% creator fee, which sounds good but provides no funding for you to improve the project. Without revenue, how do you build? Spawned's model is designed for builders, not just promoters.
The Spawned Approach vs. A Traditional Launch
A side-by-side look at why the foundation matters.
| Aspect | Traditional 'Hype' Launch | Spawned Builder-First Launch |
|---|---|---|
| Starting Point | Requires pre-built community | Starts with your idea and a professional AI-built site |
| Creator Funding | Often 0% fee post-launch | 0.30% fee on every trade from the start |
| Holder Incentive | Relies on speculation & memes | 0.30% reward distributed to all holders on every trade |
| Initial Cost | Variable, plus monthly website fees | 0.1 SOL launch fee, AI website builder included ($29-99/mo value) |
| Long-Term Model | Hype decays; project stalls | 1% perpetual fee post-graduation funds ongoing development |
The key difference is sustainability. The traditional model is extractive, while the Spawned model is aligned. Holders earn rewards for staying, and you earn fees to keep building. This creates a positive feedback loop from a very small starting group.
Your 5-Step Launch Process (No Community Required)
Follow these steps to go from idea to live token with a foundation for growth.
- Concept & Token Setup: Define your token's purpose—is it for a game, a creator collective, a tool? Use Spawned's launch interface to set your token name, symbol, and initial supply. The process takes minutes.
- Build Your Hub with AI: Immediately use the integrated AI website builder. Describe your project, and it generates a clean, informative site. This is your permanent home base and the first thing new visitors will see. No coding or monthly subscriptions needed. See how AI can help other token types.
- Launch with Transparency: Your token goes live on Spawned for 0.1 SOL. Your site is live. Be clear in your initial communications: this is a building phase. Highlight the 0.30% holder reward as a reason for early support.
- Activate the Reward Loop: As the first trades happen, the 0.30% holder reward automatically distributes. Share this mechanism. It turns early buyers into stakeholders with a reason to hold and share the project.
- Reinvest & Grow: Your 0.30% creator fee starts accumulating. Use these funds for initial development, small promotions, or liquidity. This turns early activity into project fuel.
Tactics to Attract Your First 100 Holders
Actionable strategies to find your initial supporters.
With no existing audience, you need targeted actions. Don't try to shout into the void; focus on places where builders and early adopters gather.
- Niche Communities: Find small, focused Discord servers or Telegram groups related to your token's theme (e.g., indie game dev, specific crypto tools). Don't spam. Engage, then share your project as a builder seeking early feedback and supporters who benefit from the holder reward.
- Leverage the AI Site: Your professional website is a credibility tool. Share the link directly. It explains the project and the reward mechanics better than a tweet thread.
- Micro-Collaborations: Partner with 1-2 other small creators. Cross-promote to each other's tiny audiences. Real connections beat broad, empty broadcasts.
- Transparent Updates: Use your site's blog or a simple Twitter thread to post small, real updates. "Holder rewards distributed: X SOL this week." "Working on feature Y." This builds trust.
- The Reward is the Message: Your core pitch isn't just the project idea; it's the economic model. "Hold this token, and you earn a share of all trading activity from day one." This is a tangible benefit.
Why the 0.30% Holder Reward Changes Everything
The feature designed to bootstrap loyalty from scratch.
When you have no community, you need a mechanism that builds one for you. The 0.30% holder reward is that mechanism. On every single trade (buy or sell), 0.30% of the trade value is distributed proportionally to all token holders.
Example: If there's $10,000 in trading volume in a day, $30 is generated for holder rewards. If you hold 1% of the supply, you earn $0.30 that day, directly to your wallet. This passive income incentive:
- Reduces sell pressure: Holders have a reason to keep their tokens to continue earning.
- Attracts organic holders: People seeking yield will discover your token.
- Aligns interests: Your success (more volume) directly benefits your holders.
This creates a stable core group from which to grow, solving the initial 'no community' vacuum. Compare this to a static token with no ongoing holder benefit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. The Spawned model is built for this scenario. Your professional AI-generated website serves as your initial hub, and the 0.30% holder reward provides a tangible economic reason for the first people who discover your project to buy and hold. Your focus shifts from begging a non-existent audience to attracting stakeholders with a shared incentive.
It sets the foundation for sustainable growth. The promise of the reward is part of your initial story to attract the first holders. As volume grows—even slowly—the rewards become real, reinforcing holder loyalty. It's a system designed to bootstrap itself, turning early adopters into long-term supporters, which is far more effective than relying on hype alone.
A 0% creator fee means you earn nothing from your own project's activity, leaving no funds for development, marketing, or improvement. Spawned's 0.30% creator fee provides immediate, sustainable revenue. Combined with the included AI website (saving $29-99/month), you have the tools and funding to actually build something, rather than just launching and hoping.
It's designed for simplicity. You describe your project in plain language (e.g., "a token for my indie game studio with holder rewards"), and the AI generates a clean, functional website with key sections. You can edit text and images easily. This removes the need for web development skills or a monthly subscription, giving you a professional presence instantly.
Upon graduation, your token migrates to the full Solana blockchain. Spawned implements a 1% perpetual fee on transactions using the Token-2022 standard. This continues to fund your project's treasury long-term, ensuring you have resources for ongoing development, a critical advantage for building a lasting project from a small start.
The launch fee is 0.1 SOL. There are no hidden fees or monthly charges for the website builder. You will need a small amount of SOL for initial transaction gas fees on the Solana network, but these are typically fractions of a cent. The AI website builder is included at no additional recurring cost.
Start with your existing networks, no matter how small. Use your AI website as your primary link. Engage authentically in niche online communities related to your project's theme. The most powerful tool is your project's unique value: the holder reward. Explain clearly how early supporters benefit directly from the project's trading activity.
