# First round

> Round 1 is the round you create in the boost wizard, including the early-access cap on each round.

**Round 1** is the round [Create a boost](https://docs.heroboost.me/guides/boost/create.md) makes. The wizard calls it Round 1. You set the recipient, what people give, any [outcome gate](https://docs.heroboost.me/guides/boost/outcome-gates/overview.md), and whether the recipient must create a token.

Dividing the work into rounds is like dividing a token project into phases — Round 2, Round 3, and so on.

**Pre-audit trial limit**

During early access, each fundraising round is capped at **\$1,000 USD equivalent** (only for a token that has a price feed — a live USD price HeroBoost can read) until the smart contract security audit is complete. Round 1, Round 2, and every later round use this same cap: the amounts do not combine, and unused room does not carry over to the next round.

That limit is per round. It is the same rule as on [Boost](https://docs.heroboost.me/problem/boost.md).

## What Round 1 is for

* **Conditional tips (no token)** — people give money under the rules you published. This path does not create a token. If you linked an outcome, it is a Polymarket market or an IMD Oracle yes/no question.
* **Token launch** — if the recipient must create a token, Round 1 mints a slice of the max supply for people who funded the boost. A small first mint (for example 0.01% in public demos) is one of the choices the wizard can apply. You can also use the full max supply in this single launch, the same shape as other token launchpads. A small slice leaves later rounds for smaller tasks, which fits everyday micro funding. Token holders vote before a later round.

After the wallet confirmation, open [Read a boost](https://docs.heroboost.me/guides/boost/read.md) to see Round 1 on the boost page.
