- 01
Direct impact
No fund in between. You choose the dream, see the milestones and watch the proof arrive. A small backing can complete a milestone when several Backers join in.
- 02
Transparent by design
Every dream shows its goal, milestones and progress. Dreams are reviewed before they go live, and money moves only when proof is posted.
- 03
A relationship, not a transaction
Chat with the Dreamer and follow updates. Many Backers return because they enjoy watching a plan become something real, knowing they helped.
How Backers are protected
14-day review per milestone
When proof is posted, each Backer has 14 days to release their share or ask for more. Money not released in time goes back to the Backer.
15% fee, deducted — never added
Backers pay exactly what they choose. The 15% fee comes out of each backing: ₹10,000 gives the Dreamer ₹8,500. The fee is kept if money is returned.
Gifts, not shares
Backings are gifts. No shares, equity, interest or repayment, and Dreamers keep full ownership. Nothing on cohero is an investment or a loan.
Example milestone plan
An example plan for a pilot training dream with a goal of ₹4,300,000. Backers fund the whole goal, but each milestone's money stays held until you post the proof and Backers release it.

Risks to plan for
- R1
Weather interrupts flying
Poor weather can cancel booked lessons and extend training. Use completion windows rather than fixed flight dates, and include travel flexibility in the relevant milestones.
- R2
More practice is needed
The planned flight hours may not be enough to reach assessment readiness. Base the budget on a training estimate and explain how extra practice would affect the final two stages.
- R3
Aircraft availability changes
Maintenance or instructor scheduling can interrupt access to the training aircraft. Confirm booking arrangements early and leave space between flight blocks before assessment bookings.
Questions and answers
How can I prove flight training without sharing my full logbook?
Post paid aircraft and instructor invoices with a redacted summary of the relevant training entries. Hide identity numbers and other personal details while keeping lesson dates and the funded training activity understandable.
Can I promise to earn the licence by a fixed date?
Avoid making a licence date a guaranteed outcome. Weather, aircraft access and assessment readiness can change the schedule. Set out the training stages you intend to fund and explain how you will report delays to Backers.
Do Backers get anything in return?
Backings are gifts, so there are no shares, interest or repayment. You get a clear view of the progress you made possible and a direct line to the Dreamer.
