Abstract: Systems and methods to provide a set of qualifying steps for a crowdsourced project during creation of the project, where the steps are coupled with cost calculators, medal awards, partner identification, and third party auditing. The systems and methods allow an efficient project entry method while also scoring the completeness of the project to potential funding users. The inclusion of stretch goals, added at any time during the creation or funding of a project allows dynamic adjustment of target funding levels and awards, providing incentives for increased funding. Described herein is a system and method to create crowdfunded projects along with quality control checks visible to funders and incentives to induce more funders and greater funding levels, at the same time as creating a higher project success rate.
