@overanalyser If I understand correctly, **your intention with INDEX.labs is to make it easier to launch simple funds** (i.e. simple sector/AUM indices like DPI, MVI, or [Data Economy Index](https://gov.indexcoop.com/t/request-for-discussion-data-economy-index-data/1626) (DATA)). I left a detailed comment on @puniaviision **[Engineering and Product Constraints](https://gov.indexcoop.com/t/engineering-and-product-constraints/1679/8)** challenging the assumption that Set Engineering resources are actually a requirement for launching a simple index - I do not not believe they are. I manage my a chunk of my personal portfolio with a Gnosis Safe multisig as a Social Trader on the TokenSets platform (see the [BEST Portfolio](https://www.tokensets.com/v2/set/0xEab53D2Dc181d5c2D316a3370471a028C621EdE7)). Based on my current understanding, my view is that we can launch simple index products by having @dylan and the Engineering Working Group transfer rebalancing responsibilities to this group that you have outlined: > [@overanalyser](#): > > - Methodologist > - Golden / Silver owl who is familiar with trading. > - Community owl who has web2 / web3 experience (not a full code Dev)would real > - Member of Set Eng team / experienced Coop Eng @dylan @ncitron @richard @puniaviision Please sign me up for whatever group is working on unblocking launching simple index products! I am happy to document processes, do manual rebalances, etc. --- _[View the full topic](https://gov.indexcoop.com/t/index-labs-an-idea-to-consider/1712)._
