# What is STAR?

## The STAR in starllm

STAR is starllm's native reward credit. Every STAR you earn can be spent inside StarLLM as platform service credit. No expiry, no tiers, no friction.

## What STAR Is Not

**STAR is not a stable token.** STAR is a reward point.

It is designed to recognize and reward the people who actively use, support, and help improve the platform — from signing up and verifying their email, to inviting friends, sharing feedback, reporting bugs, joining events, and participating in the broader starllm ecosystem.

Every STAR you earn can be used inside starllm to access the models we provide. In that sense, STAR works like service credit: it gives users a simple, practical way to turn participation into real model usage, real completions, and real work done on the platform.

STAR is not built around speculation. We are not launching it as a public sale, presale, fundraising mechanism, or investment product. It is not pegged to fiat currency, commodities, or any external asset, and it is not designed to imply future financial returns. Its purpose is much simpler: to create a useful reward layer for people who actually spend time with the product.

Our plan is to distribute STAR through genuine platform activity — usage rewards, referral programs, community contributions, partner integrations, feedback campaigns, and seasonal events connected to product launches. The value of STAR comes from what it unlocks inside starllm: access to real AI inference across the models we offer.

## How Do I Get STAR?

## At Its Core

STAR is our way of saying thank you.

Your time, your referrals, your feedback, and your participation help starllm grow. STAR turns that contribution into something immediately useful inside the platform — credits you can spend on model calls without needing to navigate complicated tiers or speculative mechanics.

No hype. No artificial scarcity. No financialized roadmap.

Just a practical reward system for users who help build the ecosystem with us.
