"Saleium vs ChainGPT Pad: which should I use?"
Updated Jun 21, 2026, 09:47 AM
Use ChainGPT Pad when you want to launch on a curated destination and tap ChainGPT's audience, and use Saleium when you want to run the sale yourself on your own domain and brand with the same proven rails underneath.
Who this is for: Both. Project operators deciding where to launch, and participants trying to understand the difference between the two.
What is the core difference between Saleium and ChainGPT Pad?
ChainGPT Pad is a curated launchpad destination. Projects apply, and users come to pad.chaingpt.org to join IDOs. It is a place people visit to discover and join launches that ChainGPT has reviewed.
Saleium is infrastructure. You run the sale yourself, on your own domain and brand, powered by ChainGPT Pad's rails underneath. The Saleium dashboard is at https://saleium.io. Think of it as the build-your-own version: same engine, your storefront.
A simple way to hold it in mind: Pad is the destination, Saleium is the toolkit.
For project operators
Choose based on what you want to own and who you want to reach.
Use ChainGPT Pad when:
- You want to tap ChainGPT's existing audience and curation.
- You want your launch to appear on the shared destination at pad.chaingpt.org where participants already gather.
- You are looking for the visibility and credibility that comes with being a listed project.
Use Saleium when:
- You want to own the launch moment on your own turf, under your own brand and domain.
- You want to deploy your own smart contracts from your own wallet and keep ownership of them. On the self-serve route Saleium never takes custody.
- You want self-serve control over Token Sale, Staking, Vesting, and Airdrop tooling from one dashboard at https://saleium.io.
With Saleium you connect a wallet, pick a chain, fill a short wizard, then deploy from your own wallet and pay network gas. Live chains shown in the in-app chain selector include BNB Chain, Polygon, Base, Arbitrum, and Avalanche. Always check the in-app chain selector at https://saleium.io for the current live list rather than relying on a memorized set.
Can I do both at once?
Yes. Mirror Mode can run both Saleium and ChainGPT Pad at the same time, so your launch lives on the curated destination and on your own branded surface together. Mirror Mode is arranged with the ChainGPT team rather than toggled on yourself. To set it up, contact the ChainGPT team.
For participants
If you are joining a launch, the difference mostly comes down to where you join it.
- On ChainGPT Pad, you go to pad.chaingpt.org to find and join IDOs from projects that applied and were curated.
- On a Saleium-powered launch, you join on the project's own domain and brand, but the rails underneath are the same proven ChainGPT Pad rails.
If a project is running Mirror Mode, you may see the same launch in both places at once. Either route reaches the same underlying sale.
Common issues
- I cannot find a project on pad.chaingpt.org. The project may be running its launch through Saleium on its own domain instead, or it may not be listed on Pad. Check the project's official channels for the correct link.
- I want to switch from Pad to Saleium or vice versa. These are different routes, not a setting you flip. If you want both running together, that is Mirror Mode, which is arranged by contacting the ChainGPT team.
