BackHumans

How It Works

Three steps to funding freedom

BackHumans lets builders raise non-dilutive capital through revenue participation. No equity. No loans. Just people backing people.

Step 01

Post Your Journey

Share your story publicly — milestones, failures, pivots, revenue updates. Build trust with the community before you raise a dime.

  • Write JOURNEY, MILESTONE, and FAILURE posts
  • Share revenue metrics and traction updates
  • Build a public track record backers can verify
  • Grow your follower base organically
Step 02

Raise Capital

Create a PRPA deal — set your raise goal, revenue share percentage, and return cap. Backers invest $500–$50K. Funds held in escrow until fully funded.

  • Set raise amount ($5K–$250K)
  • Choose revenue share % (5–20%)
  • Set return cap (1.5x–3x)
  • Funds held in escrow until deal closes
Step 03

Share Revenue

Pay backers a fixed percentage of project revenue monthly until the return cap is hit. No equity given up. No interest. Everyone wins.

  • Monthly revenue reporting via Plaid
  • Automatic distribution to backers
  • Transparent tracking on your profile
  • Cap hit = deal complete, you keep 100%

For Builders

  • Revenue-only repayment — no fixed schedule
