# Quickstart

> Evaluate Path in five minutes.

Five steps to get oriented on Path before a partnership conversation.
Plan on about ten minutes end to end.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Read the introduction (1 min)">
    Start with [Introduction](/introduction) to understand what Path
    is, who it is for, and where it sits in the stablecoin yield stack.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Read Signal Mesh (3 min)">
    [Signal Mesh](/core-concepts/signal-mesh) explains the prediction
    engine in plain language: what inputs it consumes, how confidence
    is scored, and how recommendations are explained.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Read liquidity impact (2 min)">
    [Liquidity impact](/core-concepts/liquidity-impact) answers the
    deposit-at-size question: what happens to predicted APY when an
    allocator moves real volume into a pool, and where the break-even
    horizon sits.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Read the partner-access shape (5 min)">
    [Partner access](/integrations/partner-access) describes the
    integration patterns Path supports: how Path slots into an
    existing rail or surface as a strategy-intelligence component,
    an embedded widget, a custodian integration, or a DON-signed
    on-chain signal feed.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Reach out">
    Email
    [path@pathprotocol.finance](mailto:path@pathprotocol.finance)
    with your rail, surface, and approximate volume profile. We will
    route you to the right person and schedule a walkthrough scoped
    to your integration shape.
