# IMO Process & Stages

1. **Project Selection & Milestone Definition**\
   Projects define a milestone roadmap that is reviewed against Seedify’s Milestone Guidelines and approved through community voting before fundraising begins.<br>
2. **Fundraising & Escrow**\
   Non-TGE Funds and tokens are locked in a 3rd party escrow with multisig protections. Only the portion tied to a completed milestone can be released.<br>
3. **Milestone Delivery & Evidence Submission**\
   When a milestone deadline arrives, the project submits verifiable evidence of completion.<br>
4. **AI-Assisted Oracle Verification**\
   AI-powered oracles evaluate submitted evidence against pre-approved milestone conditions.\
   \
   These oracles do not make final decisions, they provide structured, verifiable analysis.<br>
5. **Seedify Review & Transparency Layer**\
   Seedify reviews oracle findings, adds contextual analysis, and publishes a transparent report for the community.<br>
6. **Community Decision**\
   Community voters make the final decision to:\
   \- Release milestone funds and vest tokens\
   \- Deny the milestone and refund remaining funds\
   \- Approve partial releases or changes when justified<br>
7. **Repeat Until Completion**\
   This process repeats for every milestone until all milestones are completed or the project is terminated.<br>

## 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://docs.seedify.fund/imo/imo-process-and-stages.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.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
