Why it is new

What exists today, and what this does differently

What is new

A bundle of existing tools aimed at grant readiness rather than a new mechanic.

Closest things out there

Karma GAP provides onchain milestone and impact tracking used by Celo, Gitcoin and Octant, and Scaffold-ETH provides code, but no single kit bundling app, docs and grant metrics was found.

Checked with web searches in October 2026. A search is not proof that nothing similar exists, and the market moves fast, so we recheck before every build.

For investors and grant reviewers

The pitch, ready

Honest, checkable grant evidence for small builders, packed in three days.

Problem: Small teams ship real apps but lose reviews because their evidence is a repo link and wallet counts inflated by test and farm wallets.

Solution: One box with verified contracts, site, docs and a public dashboard that clusters wallets by funder, lists every exclusion and attests weekly snapshots.

Why now: Programs on Base, Optimism and others fund more builders than ever and are tired of farmed metrics; attestations make honest numbers cheap to prove.

Market: Thousands of grant applicant teams a year plus the programs and accelerators that review them.

The ask: Pilot with two grant programs to run a cohort through the box and the cohort view.

Funding is never guaranteed. Check each program's rules.

For hackathons and demo days

Your 2 minute demo

Home: meet Wanjiru and Otieno and the grant form that wants proof
Pack: choose Base, a builder grant and four metrics, then pack and publish
Impact: see 1,180 farm wallets excluded, appeal the exchange cluster, +14 members
Agent: read how the count went wrong twice and was fixed
Apply: add the late M3 note, submit with an attested snapshot, Halima moves them to a call
Revenue: edit the paywall and see USDC payments
Growth: invite a program cohort and watch teams land
Roadmap: request the program cohort portal

Many hackathons require code written at the event. See the Regatta Boardfor each race's rule.

BLUEPRINT

Why it matters and how it really works

The need

Small teams build real apps but lose grant reviews because their evidence is a repo link and inflated wallet counts. Reviewers ask for shipped code, clear docs and impact they can verify, and most teams assemble that by hand, late, under deadline.

What exists and what is new

The parts exist. Karma GAP already provides onchain milestone and impact tracking used by programs such as Celo, Gitcoin and Octant, and Scaffold-ETH and similar starters provide the code. Research verdict: rare, medium novelty; no single kit was found that bundles a starter app, landing site, docs and a grant shaped impact dashboard. What is new is the bundle and its honesty defaults: funder clustering to exclude test and farm wallets, attested dashboard snapshots, and a late milestone note flow. It can post milestones to Karma GAP rather than replace it.

The data it runs on

The team's contracts and public onchain activity on the chosen chain, funder graphs for clustering, milestone definitions, dashboard snapshots and their hashes, and the team's own written updates. Member names and group chats stay offchain.

1.The mission

Make honest evidence the easy default, so small builders anywhere can show real impact and reviewers can trust it.

2.Why people can't resist it

Proof in one link Site, docs, dashboard and attestations in one place a reviewer can check without a call.

The honest number Excluded wallets are listed openly. A smaller true headline earns more trust than a big one.

Friday parcel A drafted weekly update from the dashboard, attested and posted, with a visible streak.

3.How it works for real

Starter app and contracts: A Scaffold-ETH style template (or an Anchor template on Solana) with tests, deployed and source verified on the chosen chain (Base, Optimism, Arbitrum or Solana).

Site and docs: A static landing site and a docs site with setup, architecture and a short threat model, deployed on the team's domain.

Indexer: A hosted indexer or provider API (for example Dune, a subgraph or Helius on Solana) pulls contract activity and funding sources for each wallet.

Funder clustering: Wallets funded from the same source within a window are grouped; team, test and faucet farm clusters are excluded and listed on the dashboard.

Attestations: Milestones and weekly dashboard snapshot hashes are attested with EAS on EVM chains (or a memo program on Solana), and can be mirrored to Karma GAP.

Update drafts: A small model tier (for example Claude Haiku class) drafts the Friday update from dashboard deltas; the team picks and edits the lead line.

4.Cost per use and pricing

Per attestation on Base or Optimism: usually well under $0.05 in gas. Indexer and API usage on free or entry plans: $0 to $50 a month. Weekly update draft with a small model: under $0.01. Hosting for site, docs and dashboard: about $0 to $20 a month. Example month: 4 snapshot attestations plus 1 milestone, about $0.25 gas, $25 indexing, $20 hosting, under $50 in total.

Box $349 once

Starter app, site, docs and dashboard set up for one project on one chain.

Season $29 a month

Hosting, weekly attested snapshots, Friday update drafts and clustering refreshes.

Program $299 a month

For grant programs or accelerators: a cohort view of every team's attested dashboards.

5.Growth loop

Every public dashboard carries a small packed with Grant Ready mark that reviewers and other builders see. Teams share the honest number card, and programs that like the format invite their whole cohort.

6.Risks and guardrails

No funding guarantee: Evidence helps a reviewer decide; it does not win grants. The kit never says otherwise.

Clustering mistakes: Funder clustering can wrongly exclude real users who share an exchange or a family funder. Exclusions are shown and can be appealed with a note.

Gaming: Determined teams can fund fake wallets from many sources. Attested snapshots make later edits visible but cannot prove humanity.

Privacy: Members of savings groups must not be identifiable from the dashboard. Only aggregates go public, never names or chats.

Program rules: Each grant program has its own criteria and can change them. The kit maps to common asks, not to any program's official requirements.

Why own Grant Ready

Grant reviewers want a live app, docs and impact numbers, and most builders scramble to assemble them at deadline. Grant Ready ships your app, site, docs and a public impact dashboard on your own deployment, so the evidence is yours and grows every day. Owning it means your impact record is tied to your wallet, not a consultant's template.

What’s stopping you?

“I can't code.”

The starter app, site, docs and dashboard come built. The guide covers deploy and connecting your metrics.

“Will it win me a grant?”

No kit can promise that. It makes you ready and your evidence clear. Reviewers still judge your idea, team and impact.

“Is it really mine?”

Yes, deployed from your wallet with code in your git.

“What if my numbers are small?”

Show them honestly. Reviewers respect real small numbers with a clear plan over inflated ones.

“Karma GAP exists.”

It does, and you can link to it. Grant Ready bundles the app and docs too.

The million-dollar ladder

Builders and small teams pay you to keep them grant ready: a monthly plan for the dashboard and docs, plus application support. Ecosystems may pay to onboard their grantees.
