Hi @JackPala, thanks for your proposal to the Sia Foundation grants program.
We need additional information to be able to consider your proposal. You can check the other two standard grants currently submitted, DNNS and Sirkl, to see adequate examples.
Specifically:
- We don’t provide ongoing funds with no end date. Projects must have a set duration and budget.
- Your budget needs to be better detailed at the Standard grant level. “Monthly retainer” is not descriptive enough. Please itemize based on the work that will be provided, even if it’s as simple as “Developer fees”.
- Timeline and objectives must be far more detailed, broken down into milestones as required by the standard grants template.
- While not technically required at this level, any previous experience you can provide from your team will greatly aid the committee. They don’t typically provide grant funds to first time proposers and those without any provided development history.
We’ll be rejecting this proposal for now. If you feel like you can address the concerns listed above, please feel free to resubmit.
