Virtuals nailed the launch moment. But what’s missing is the structured scaffolding around it:

Pre-launch rigor: helping projects scope MVPs, cost out GTM, and validate PMF

before

tokens trade.

Post-launch rigor: ensuring that once tokens are live, projects have transparent milestones, accountable use of funds, and a clear pathway to product-market fit.

Without these, launchpads risk becoming hype cycles — not sustainable growth engines.

That’s where Ground Zero comes in.

We’re building the missing layer in the Virtuals funnel: a pre-launchpad proving ground that turns whitepapers into launchpad-ready products.

Here’s how it works:

AI Scoring

Projects self-submit data. Our AI evaluates them across 7 categories: MVP, PMF, Team, Industry, Community, Go-To-Market, and Competitors.

First Raise (up to $10K)

If a project scores above 25/100, they unlock their first raise — up to $10K.

This funds:

An initial marketing campaign to test traction

Technical scoping: roadmap & cost to MVP or income-generating product

Costed PMF testing plan

Costed GTM strategy

Second Raise (Milestone-Based)

Armed with a clear scope, projects then raise enough to fund either:

The build of their MVP, or

The path to an income-generating product

Funding is released in tranches tied to progress reports, with investors voting on whether to release the next tranche.
