Gov4Git
A decentralized protocol for governing open-source communities based on git
is the missing piece in decentralized open-source collaborative development
Governance
PRIORITIZATION
Triaging and prioritizing community issues is a bottleneck to scaling.
DECISION-MAKING
Reviewing community contributions is best delegated to collaborators with relevant context and expertise.
ATTRIBUTION
Quantified attribution, based on market-inspired peer-review, incentivizes collaborators to contribute and maintain.
Our technology is low-cost, decentralized, trusted computation
Decentralized architecture
Purely based on git
Deep integration with GitHub
Verifiable bookkeeping
Byzantine Trust Model
Transparent and equitable governance practices
have far-reaching benefits
SUSTAINABILITY
Fair quantification of individual collaborator’s contributions and stake in the community enable fair retro-active distribution of funding, charitable grants, or commercialization benefits — a mechanism that attracts and incentivizes collaborators to stay for the long haul.
AUTHENTICITY
Governance records attest to fair and inclusive practices, as well as alignment amongst participants.
VELOCITY
Market-driven arbitration leaves no room for decision deadlocks.
SUPPLY CHAIN SECURITY
Package managers that distribute software with governance records can mechanically verify that critical updates are approved by large numbers of stakeholders.
Open-source is ripe with use cases for governance
COMMUNITY MANAGEMENT
Web3 and AI companies have one thing in common — they need to manage large communities of contributors in a fair and inclusive manner. Ad-hoc community management does not scale.
AI ALIGNMENT AND SAFETY
At the end of the day, AI alignment boils down to the collaborative creation of datasets and model architectures — using transparent, inclusive, democratic collaborative practices.
AI POLICY
Regulators and policymakers struggle to define meaningful AI guardrails as they lack devices to access the process of ideation and creation, resulting in outcome-centric policies that are too blunt and impede innovation.
LEAN STARTUPS
Our governance solution can enable startup founders to move faster, spend less, and reduce the risk of acquiring new employees. Governance effectively takes care of perf and compensation, by leveraging a market-inspired, self-serve, peer-review mechanism.
