Register an account, then submit a membership application from the onboarding page. A founder reviews it and either accepts or rejects it — this is a deliberate, discretionary judgment, never an automatic approval. Once accepted, you choose your domain(s) and can start being assigned to project work.
No. Applying and joining as a builder is free. What you earn on delivered work is tracked in your own private finance ledger.
Reputation is qualitative only — Strong, Stable, or Developing per dimension — never a numeric score, never a leaderboard, never something you can game. Indicators come from a Prime Lead or Founder review, and you can appeal a review to an independent founder without the original review ever being altered.
Yes. Domains — Frontend, Backend, Flutter, UI/UX, Graphic Design, Video Editing, AI Engineering, Marketing, Business Development, Operations, Content Writing — are additive. You can hold associations across several at once.
Every domain association starts supervised — your contributions are reviewed by a Prime Lead or Founder. Consistent, well-reviewed work moves that association to qualified independent, reflected automatically from your review history, never self-declared.
Submit a project inquiry from the website — no account required. A Team Elite member reviews it, and if it fits, sets your organization up as a client and reaches out with next steps. Nothing beyond the inquiry itself exists until a founder-side reviewer engages.
No. Personal identity and earnings are private by default. Nothing is exposed beyond what you explicitly choose to share — for example, opting your portfolio into being link-shared or member-visible.
Disputes go through a due-process flow: a stated reason is required for any consequential decision, there is a response window before it takes effect, and an independent, non-conflicted reviewer decides whenever the original reviewer has a relationship to the outcome.
AI Engineering is one of the platform’s domains — a discipline builders work in on client projects, reviewed through the same pipeline as every other domain. It is not used to automate or replace the review/governance process itself.
Rising Nation is the longer-term ecosystem SIH is the first part of — the infrastructure meant to carry a builder’s track record from student projects toward founding real companies. SIH is where that track record starts.
Yes. SIH supports a DPDP-aligned erasure request — a founder must approve it, after which your personal identity data is removed while the platform retains only what is legally or structurally necessary (e.g. anonymized historical records).
A founder — a small, explicitly configured group of accountable decision-makers, not a rotating or anonymous committee. Every decision they make that affects you requires a recorded reason.
