Thanks for your post @BuildUnion. Though DAO-led grants are few and far between at the moment, we do hope that this will change in the near-enough future, and that your proposal merits consideration and seems to be very reasonably priced.
With that said, we raised a temp check on the topic of procuring governance analytics which we feel could potentially overlap with this proposal (to the extent that we consider DAO-led grants a governance item). Our comments there and on the other proposals referenced also apply here: we feel it would be best to adopt a holistic approach to analytics and dashboards for the DAO’s governance, working with fewer providers with a consistent, long-term approach.
On that basis, our current view on this proposal is that we would not rush to approve the proposed budget and begin building grant tracking analytics because: (i) we’d rather this proposal form part of a wider procurement effort covering all the governance analytics topics already raised; and (ii) we don’t feel that there are sufficient ongoing grants to warrant grant-tracking as a standalone work stream (for now!).
Nonetheless, we are very grateful for the proposal, and hope to involve your efforts in our suggested procurement workstream.
