An open-source Web3 crowdfunding platform built on Stellar, ensuring fund accountability and transparency through milestone-based escrow smart contracts.
KindFi is an open-source Web3 crowdfunding platform for social impact projects, built on the Stellar blockchain with Soroban smart contracts. Its core mechanism is milestone-based fund escrow—donated funds are locked in on-chain contracts and released in stages only after verified milestones are achieved, ensuring fund safety and accountability at the architectural level. All donation records are on-chain, supporting real-time fund flow tracking.
The platform adopts a Monorepo architecture: the frontend is built with Next.js + TypeScript, smart contracts are written in Rust using OpenZeppelin Stellar Contracts, data indexing is powered by SubQuery, the data layer uses Supabase (PostgreSQL) + Drizzle ORM, and a standalone AI microservice provides capabilities such as facial detection. Bun serves as the runtime with Taskfile for task orchestration.
For engagement incentives, KindFi features the Kinders NFT system where supporters earn on-chain identity credentials through activities, unlocking governance rights and exclusive rewards—creating a "donor as governor" community model. The platform focuses on social and environmental projects in Latin America, covering clean water, education, healthcare, and poverty alleviation, while offering a streamlined donation flow for non-crypto-native users.
