Upstream

Upstream is a no-code, full-stack platform for launching and operating DAOs (decentralized autonomous organizations), letting communities create a DAO with a Gnosis multi-signature wallet, DAO contract, and vote delegation contract without technical experience. The platform blends on-chain smart contracts (built on OpenZeppelin, audited by Upshield) with off-chain forums, proposals, polls, and events, and maintains the open-source Fortuna service that indexes ERC20/ERC721/ERC1155 transfer events on Ethereum. Upstream is backed by Bloomberg Beta. The company does not currently publish a public developer API; its backend at api.upstreamapp.com is undocumented and product documentation lives at guide.upstreamapp.com.

Upstream is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, DAO, Web3, Blockchain, and Governance.

Upstream’s developer surface includes documentation, support, and 8 more developer resources.
