# Introduction

> Boost product documentation for onchain incentive campaigns

## What is Boost

Boost is a platform for running token incentive campaigns onchain. Teams configure the behavior they want to reward — depositing into a vault, swapping on a DEX, voting on a proposal, holding a position over time — and Boost handles the operational layer: indexing onchain activity, calculating accrued rewards, snapshotting balances, and supporting claims.

The platform offers two products:

* **[Time-Based Incentives](/tbi/introduction)** reward users *continuously* for the size and duration of an onchain position they keep active. Designed for sustained behavior — deeper liquidity, longer holding periods, retention.
* **[One-Time Actions](/v2/documentation/overview/introduction)** reward users *once* for completing a discrete onchain activity. Designed for specific actions — mints, swaps, votes, governance, contract calls.

Campaigns reach end users through [rabbithole.gg](https://rabbithole.gg), Boost's consumer app where users discover, participate in, and claim rewards. Protocols don't need to host a claim UI — rabbithole.gg handles distribution for both products.

Boost is built for product, growth, and ecosystem teams at protocols and apps that want a focused way to incentivize specific onchain behavior.

## What You Can Do with Boost

A few common ways teams use Boost:

* **Bootstrap liquidity** — reward depositors in a new vault, LP, or staking pool, scaled by position size and duration. *(Time-Based Incentives)*
* **Drive launch-day actions** — pay one-time rewards for mints, swaps, or contract interactions tied to a launch. *(One-Time Actions)*
* **Reward sustained holding** — encourage longer holding periods on a token, vault share, or staked balance. *(Time-Based Incentives)*
* **Activate governance** — reward voters, delegators, or participants in DAO actions. *(One-Time Actions)*
* **Welcome new users** — onboard users with one-time rewards for their first swap, mint, or deposit. *(One-Time Actions)*
* **Target a specific audience** — restrict rewards to an allowlist (NFT holders, partner communities, existing users).

## Why Teams Choose Boost

* **Skip the infra build.** Indexing, snapshots, reward accounting, and claim flows are handled — focus on campaign design, not plumbing.
* **Reach users already on rabbithole.gg.** Campaigns surface to an existing user base instead of requiring you to drive traffic to a custom claim page.
* **Pay only for rewards that are claimed.** Anything undistributed returns to your funding account at the end of the claim window.
* **Shape rewards to the behavior you want.** Allowlists, minimum balances, deposit caps, fixed or variable rewards, and tiered payouts let you target a specific outcome.

## What's Shared Across Products

Both products distribute ERC-20 token rewards on EVM chains, and both surface campaigns to end users through [rabbithole.gg](https://rabbithole.gg) — Boost's consumer app where users discover and claim rewards.
