# A DAO is people

At BEE DAO we are committed the concept of “community first” development, so naturally we’re going to start by talking about the people. DAO software works in service of communities of people, and DAOs give those communities coordination superpowers.

So, when you hear someone say “you should join a DAO” what they mean is that you should join a community, team, or project that is using DAO software to coordinate decisions.
