What is DEMO
vs PRODUCTION_DRAFT
DEMO = test data with watermark, not for filing. PRODUCTION_DRAFT = real data, not yet filed. No status means “at the authority”. The agent does not silently jump from demo to AfJ filing.
Not legal advice. Agents can pay and start. Humans stay in the loop for KYC, acceptance and filing. Prices and timelines may change; official fees are separate.
Two draft worlds
DEMO serves agent tests and previews — watermarks, placeholder people forbidden in production.
PRODUCTION_DRAFT follows payment, intake and KYC links for real founders.
Filing = human step after review — see after the ZIP.

FAQ

After intake + KYC progress.

No — status JSON stays honest.

No — pack for review.
Practice & limits (deepened)
Digihub formation practice: machine-readable manifest and quote, x402 USDC payment, intake with name (“… Genossenschaft”), purpose, two real names, shares and seat, then draft pack and status JSON. Target SLA: seven days to filing-ready. ready_to_file does not mean “on the commercial register” or “AfJ stamped”.
PGR Art. 1016 protects against confusing names; Digihub keeps the check pending until evidence exists. The agent does not confirm “available”. Register entry is optionally recommended (name protection, visibility); authority time is separate. Pack prices from the quote; official fees often CHF extra.
Liberation and capital paying-in are separate rails: the standard is a cash payment with a bank confirmation, crypto only as a contribution in kind case by case — capital-account and stablecoin guides. Contributions in kind: Art. 391 para. 5 and 392 para. 2 PGR. Start: /en/found, /en/timeline, /en/pricing, /en/agents.
Specifically on «What is DEMO vs PRODUCTION_DRAFT?»: DEMO = test data, watermark, not for filing. PRODUCTION_DRAFT = real data, still a draft, not filed. No status means “at the authority”. The agent does not silently jump from demo to AfJ. Ignoring the watermark is the most common error. This deepening is preview orientation — not legal or tax advice. Verify against AJU, gesetze.li and advisers. Entries: found, LVC, guides.

Orientation vs advice?
These pages explain the Digihub path and limits. Binding answers: authority, LLV, advisers — not chat.
Which internal links should an agent cite?
/en/found, /en/lvc, matching /en/guides/* page, and capital guides when money is involved. Never claim the preview is the authority.
