Summary:
Quidli is a micro on-ramp connecting Web 2.0 apps and web3 assets for you to embed crypto rewards and incentives into your collaboration workflows to boost participation and motivation.
The app enables you to recognize your top contributors natively in your Slack and or Discord, and is mainly used today by community managers who want to leverage community engagement on social media. Quidli users include the community teams at ConsenSys, the NEAR Foundation, ETHDenver, OrangeDAO, iExec, Flare Network, Concordium, and CUDOS.

Our proposal for The Graph:
We propose to you to build a light integration of The Graph to Quidli by adding GRT to our API and hosted app environment. This will enable you to seamlessly distribute GRT as rewards to the top active participants in your community directly in your Slack or Discord.
In addition to helping you internally share GRT within The Graph, this integration lets us offer GRT to our user base of 1000+ organizations as an option via Quidli’s open token platform.

What’s your vision for how your project will impact The Graph and/or web3?:
Through this initial partnership, we can help The Graph build an awesome community and ecosystem by enabling you to effectively boost community engagement using token incentives. Sharing more tokens with community members can help you to establish a positive alignment flywheel leading to more contributions and ultimately growth towards your main mission and objectives.
With Quidli, you can:
-
Maintain a strong and loyal community by rewarding your top contributors in $GRT.
-
Create a culture of recognition amongst the The Graph community natively in your Discord.
-
Expand awareness of GRT to those outside of your existing community (the wider Quidli user base).
What can you share about any past work that is relevant to this grant?:
Our past partnerships:
NEAR Foundation:
-
Needs: The NEAR Foundation’s Community team was looking for more ways to engage foundation members and to build a strong culture of internal and external recognition using their native NEAR token.
-
Use Case: The NEAR Foundation is using Quidli both internally (in the organization’s Slack) and externally (with its network of external partners as well as in its community Discord) as a tool to reward good contributors in NEAR.
ETHDenver:
-
Needs: ETHDenver (SporkDAO) was looking for a way to increase awareness of their community to external members as well as to have wider distribute of their own SPORK tokens among existing members.
-
Use case: Quidli helps SporkDAO to on-board new members to the DAO by enabling the community to tip each other in SPORK. Quidli is also used during ETHDenver by community members who want to recognize and acknowledge mutual contributions throughout the period of the conference.
iExec:
-
Needs: With plans to launch a community ambassador initiative, iExec was exploring way to incorporate RLC, their own token, as a reward that can be distributed natively in Discord.
-
Use Case: iExec uses Quidli to share RLC with both its community ambassadors who help to manage their open Discord as well as with community members who contribute to evangelism across social media.
