Requesting $288k USDC + 2.5e to advance to the next level of probe.wtf - incorporating an auction house and a 'Reserve your dream Noun' tool, whilst improving the gallery to showcase the beauty of Nouns & Lil Nouns. We want to become a key touchpoint for Nouns DAO, serving artists and enjoyers at the same time.
I'm working 1 day a week on design research with Lil Nouns and this project began in prop house as ‘Lil Explorer’. Probe then expanded over the past 3 months (working part-time) thanks to Nouns Gardener Round 5. Since the Garden round, we have had 1500+ visits from 40+ countries, with many existing community members finding Probe useful for whatever Noun-related tasks they may be undertaking (or simply enjoying). We now have the framework to expand the functionality as detailed below:
Deliverables
We estimate all the deliverables to be complete within 6 months from initiation of the proposal. We will document updates and progress via monthly prop dates and bring forward any new ideas / plans / pivots that may arise. Within this proposed budget we will maintain all infrastructure for 12 months (after 12 months, the estimated maintenance would be ~$2k p/m but we hope the DAO will want us to continue building new features beyond these initial deliverables - see below).
The ultimate goal of this project is to be a go-to source for people interested in getting involved in Nouns (artist, developer, buyer, spectator etc.) and for people within Nouns already. With the client incentive rewards on the horizon, we believe there are endless opportunities to add value for our core community of artists and the wider ecosystem.
We are a team of 3 (designer, front end, back end / solidity) and have been working together for about a decade building web products and protocols like this and this. Hopefully you have appreciated our work thus far and we look forward to getting the chance to take this project 100x ↑.
Team (mshrm)
pipe - designer (UX, UI, Graphics, Sprint Planning)
tom - developer (Laravel, Vue, React)
matt - developer (Solidity, C#, .NET)
Beyond the initial deliverables we are exploring the following features:
P.S. We are still considering other names/domains such as noun.wtf
