This category is for people who want to start turning their ideas into a product built on UMA.

You are welcome to gain advise here on issues such as

- Formulating a problem and a use case
- determining whether a generic UMIP can be used - or whether it requires a custom UMIP.
- how ancillary data can be structured where a generic UMIP is used.
- determining the required level of precision depending on the use case
- determining the choice of financial product library
- determining the choice of contract template.

UMA is money legos and we want to help you pick out the right shapes for what you want to achieve.
