Upstream is the place to start and run your DAO. We provide a full set of tools to manage your DAOs, including features to setup your governance, treasury, tokenomics, communication, events and more.&#x20;

Upstream allows anyone to:&#x20;

* [Join a DAO](/dao-members/joining-a-dao.md) using a governance token and vote on proposals about the DAOs operation.
* [Become a signator](/signators/understanding-signators.md) responsible for committing and executing approved proposals from the DAO.&#x20;
