The handbook mentions non-financial support for awarded Build teams in two places, but doesn't consolidate or name it, which leads to ambiguity (the community sometimes refers to this bundle informally as the "Stellar LaunchKit"):
README.md: "Additional support provided beyond funding: In addition to the existing audit bank, awarded Build teams may receive a UX audit and rigorous user testing as part of the award process."
additional-support/history-of-scf.md: "…the program also unlocks opportunities for continued development and growth… SDF's Partnerships team, other SDF grants (Marketing, Infrastructure, etc.), and external accelerators, incubators, and investors."
Could you clarify:
- Is there an official name for this set of benefits, or should it be referred to only as "additional support beyond funding"?
- Eligibility & timing — is the UX audit / user testing automatic for all awarded teams, or applied-for (like the Audit Bank)? Is it tied to a specific tranche/milestone (e.g., testnet), or available throughout the award process?
- Scope — what exactly does the UX audit / user testing include, and who delivers it?
- Would a short dedicated page under "Supporting Programs" (alongside Audit Bank, Growth Hack, etc.) help consolidate this?
Context: building community guides for SCF and want to describe these benefits accurately.
