# Who It's For

Find your track — borrower, depositor, developer, or institution.

Credit Coop's documentation serves four audiences. Pick your track:

<table data-view="cards"><thead><tr><th></th><th></th><th data-hidden data-card-target data-type="content-ref"></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>🏦 Borrowers</strong></td><td>You run a payment company, card program, or other business with predictable onchain settlement flows, and want a revolving credit facility secured by those flows — not your balance sheet.</td><td><a href="/core-concepts/secured-line-of-credit.md">Secured Line of Credit</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>💰 Depositors &#x26; LPs</strong></td><td>You want yield backed by real payment activity. Deposit into a Lending Vault, hold vault tokens, and earn returns generated by borrower interest and fees.</td><td><a href="/core-concepts/vaults.md">Vaults</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>🛠 Developers</strong></td><td>You're integrating a borrower's contracts with the Spigot, building on the vaults, or reading protocol state. Architecture, contracts, and the Platform API live here.</td><td><a href="/developers/introduction.md">Introduction</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>🏛 Institutions &#x26; Partners</strong></td><td>You're evaluating the protocol as an allocator, curator, or strategic partner. Participant roles, fees, servicing, and legal reference material.</td><td><a href="/user-documentation/v2.md">User Documentation (v2)</a></td></tr></tbody></table>

Whatever your role, the Core Concepts section is the shared foundation: the [Secured Line of Credit](/core-concepts/secured-line-of-credit.md), [the Spigot](/core-concepts/the-spigot.md), [Vaults](/core-concepts/vaults.md), and the [roles that operate them](/core-concepts/secured-line-of-credit/secured-line-of-credit/roles-and-permissions.md).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.creditcoop.xyz/start-here/who-its-for.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
