The problem of governance
We are a team of Web3 builders, working on ways to help DAOs make better decisions, faster.
One pattern we have found in different DAOs is that they are impacted by excessive governance burden, which comes from the need to:
- Moderate online forums (like discourse)
- Consume proposals easily (getting to the point)
- Differentiating proposals (the good from the bad)
A Visual solution for governance burden
We are exploring ways of representing proposal information visually, so it can be consumed quickly & easily. We use a combination of AI customized specifically for DAOs, and other software libraries.
Visual Summaries
For example, the general sentiment of comments on a proposal can be presented visually, so that a quick glance (rather than a 10 minute read) will give the reader an idea of the receptivity of the proposal. (see replies for example)
In this example, users strongly favor the proposal.
Mind Maps
Another way that proposals can be distilled is through mind-maps, to help users quickly gauge the benefit of a proposal.
Tables
Tables can also create a way for quick proposal consumption. (See replies)
Our offer
We are looking for DAOs to participate in our alpha version of our dashboard. By offering our service free to the first DAOs that sign up, we hope to:
- Use live proposal data to generate dashboards for the participating DAO
- Get feedback and iterate to give the DAO better proposal management tools
To Participate
To accomplish this, we need participating DAOs to provide a read-only API key of their discourse platform. This will allow us to pull proposal data and package it in a way that is easy to consume for DAO users.
In summary, we are offering:
- A way to reduce the governance burden through AI digests of proposals
- To participate, Cosmos needs to provide a read-only key of the discourse platform
- Being read-only, this is risk-free and allows us to provide a dashboard for easy AI digests
- Feedback from the community will allow us to improve the AI digests
- This service is offered free to Cosmos DAO, as it helps us improve our product.
