Gitcoin (more public goods pitchy)
The project was born after the Fellowship program, ran by RnDAO, where we explored the problem itself for 3 months. Here’s the whitepaper here: https://mirror.xyz/migrenaa.eth/RwxcpsCkoeKITWNNadpVqwgcBW2hVr-xQIK2p7AATD8
Compensation in centralized organizations is tricky, and even trickier in decentralized ones, embracing collaboration. To achieve a collaborative environment, we need to align incentives in the team. Web3 has been exploring that since its beginning and yet, we still don't have a tool that covers the needs of an early-stage team.
Early-stage teams struggle to maximize their runway while attracting talent and building a strong team to deliver on a common goal.
Contributors seek recognition and rewards (oftentimes in ownership) according to their contributions to the project. Contributors are often frustrated with the lack of financial distribution and ownership and they feel discomfort negotiating their salaries. Furthermore, compensation based on negotiation, often results in unfairness, as not everyone has the skill set to do that.
The founders, on the other hand, struggle to form the team as they are not in a place to give competitive salaries.
Collabberry is uniquely positioned as a token launchpad that not only solves compensation challenges but also fosters more engaged and motivated communities. We’re passionate about shaping the future of work, where collaboration is fairly rewarded, and every team member can own a piece of the success.
We’re a part of the RnDAO alliance, levaraing on their experience and mentorship. Our core team is of 4, with over 15 years of experience in web3 combined. We have a strong focus on customer development and user testing, lead by Nickolay, with over 15 years of startup, product building and COO experience. On the other hand we have a strong technical team, lead by Milena, previously CTO and cofounder of Aut Labs.
