To request a grant from the AllianceBlock DAO, begin by navigating to the AllianceBlock Commonwealth page and signing in with your wallet.

Click Submit a proposal and choose Grant request from the list of proposal categories. You will be presented with a form that you must complete before submitting your request.

Grant proposal forms

When you submit a grant request, you are expected to complete the proposal form to the best of your ability. Particular attention should be given to the abstract, description, specification, personnel, and roadmap sections. Failure to provide clear and relevant information may result in the rejection of your proposal by the community.

Following is an overview of the proposal form:

Category

Select the category that best describes your project. Currently, DAO grants will fund projects within two categories:

Tier

Select the most appropriate tier for your grant request. Tiers enable the AllianceBlock community to limit the size and scope of the grants that are funded by the DAO. The initial possible tiers are:

Tier 1 Grants are paid via a direct transfer to the beneficiary address provided within 7 days of a grant receiving approval from the DAO.

Tier 2 Grants are paid via a 2 month vesting contract.

Title

Provide a title that is concise and descriptive for your grant request. This title will appear as the header of your proposal’s detail page on Commonwealth and/or Snapshot.

Abstract

Use this space to provide a quick and easy to understand overview of your project. Your abstract should explain what problems your grant might solve, or what value it might provide to the greater community.
