DAOs & Decentralised Governance

Swae for DAOs & Decentralized governance

Smarter DAOs use decentralized decision making tools 

Stakeholders want a voice in decision making and transparency in how decisions are made. Swae helps innovative DAOs listen to these needs so they can reap the rewards of good ideas.

The simple way, is the smart way

The old way

A complex, disconnected, multi-faceted approach

The Swae way

A single & transparent source of truth

• Complex Process
• Data easily lost
• Uncertain Traceability
• Confusing Accountability
• Uncertain levels of Trust

• Streamlined Process
• Actionable Outcomes
• Traceable Accountability
• High Participation
• High Trust
• High Inclusivity

Engaging members transparently
is more important than ever 

Swae’s platform and Proposal development system can significantly improve the inefficiencies and poor user experience associated with raising, deliberating, and voting on Proposals using traditional tools like Discord, Discourse, Tally, Snapshot, Forums and the like.

Swae has a very streamlined and accessible format for Proposals that invites users to table ideas, and invites others to suggest edits, raise questions, point out any concerns and strengths, discuss and vote on the idea; all in one transparent, single source of truth.

It helps keep collective input manageable and traceable for helps you keep all your ideas well organized under various themes and challenges. 

Swae is the one decision, that can help improve every decision.

Decentralized Governance

Did you know there are 1.7M governance token holders

and 523k active voters in the DAO ecosystem

Feb 2022: Source deepdao.io

If you’re a DAO, we’re already speaking your language…

A decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) is an entity with no central leadership and work without traditional hierarchical management- that’s why we built Swae. DAOs are usually internet-native organizations, collectively owned and managed by their members, governed by a community organized around a specific set of rules, enforced with full transparency, inclusivity and accountability.

DAOs aren’t only about payment systems and other financial instruments, but reimagine how both the financial, consumer & corporate world operates.

DAOs aim to be governed by democratic or highly participatory processes, with decisions generally bring made from the bottom-up, via proposals the group proposes and votes on during a specified period.

Large blockchain-based ecosystems envision a future where groups coordinate remotely (and occasionally anonymously) irrespective of numerous social biases, relying exclusively on collaboration and decision making software.

That’s where Swae comes in….

Stay productive and aligned with all your members

Leverage the wisdom of crowds to let your members vote on the project’s roadmap and maintain governance over every proposal

Synthesize proposals

Align token holders around the big picture

Align on objectives

Evaluate opportunities faster

Strategize on what to invest budget into next

Reshape member expectations by transforming how they participate in complex decisions that affect them and the organization as a while.

Avoid creating policies and decisions in a vacuum
