# Use case: Starting a DAO

Even though airdrops allow you to distribute ownership to early users, DAOs may still need help to bootstrap an initial community. Creating a buzz is not trivial in the dense environment of DeFi/NFT projects, and further so for DAOs with lesser immediate markets such as ImpactDAOs or DeSci DAOs.<br>

Through the \[] API, you find exactly the people who may be interested in your project. By simply defining the activity category and period, you are served a concentrated list of potential contributors. Through DeepDAO, you also have the option to get in touch with them directly.&#x20;
