Description TL;DR Fund BotFrens 18E to add key new features to the Builder and Nouns DAO bots that make it easier to engage the community through timely calls-to-action and stay informed on DAO activity as it happens.

About BotFrens makes it easy for DAOs to publish auctions, votes, sales, and other events to Discord, Farcaster, and Twitter. With 500+ dev hours, BotFrens has integrated Builder contracts and launched bots for DAOs such as Builder, Purple, Toadz, XNouns, BLVKHVND, and many others.

Since the launch, we’ve been gathering feature suggestions from the Builder community (see below 👇. This proposal seeks funding to implement those features.

Key Points We are NOT asking for retro funding! We have spent over 500 dev hours integrating Builder because of our commitment to this project. This proposal seeks funding for NEW features suggested by the Builder / Nouns communities.

Why? Our goal is to surface interesting data through fully-automated and configurable bot behaviors and increase engagement around auctions and proposals.

Who benefits? All existing and future Builder and Nounish DAOs.

Cost: 18Ξ (~230 developer hours + init infa setup + QA + support)

Timeline: The entire project will take around 6 weeks to complete, but users will be able to use new behaviors as soon as they are available.

Team’s credibility: We have a solid track record working with Nouns DAO, Purple DAO, Rarible DAO, Foundation marketplace and other key web3 projects. Our work is featured in WIRED, Observer, and Hyperallergic, to name a few. We are here for the long term and our incentives are aligned with Builder’s success.

Path to sustainability: BotFrens is a bootstrapped startup and our customers cover the cost of running their bots by paying ~ 0.015Ξ /month. This model puts BotFrens on a path to sustainability and incentivizes us to do the best possible work.
