# Launching a Borrower Pool on Goldfinch

As you look to launch a borrower pool on the Goldfinch protocol, here are the operational considerations you should take into account. For simplicity, we have broken this down into stages. We recommend budgeting a minimum two months of operational prep ahead of your initial launch on the platform. 

Currently, as a first step anyone who is interested in Borrowing on Goldfinch should fill out the [Borrower Inquiry form](https://q5mtp1r5w13.typeform.com/goldfinchborrow). 

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Goldfinch provides tools to help participants interact with the protocol, but it is your responsibility to stay compliant with all legal, regulatory, and tax laws for your relevant jurisdiction(s). All protocol participants are strongly encouraged to consult with their own legal and tax counsel.** 
{% endhint %}

## 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.goldfinch.finance/goldfinch/goldfinch-v1/borrower-how-to/launching-a-borrower-pool-on-goldfinch.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.
