Accord

Web app | Startup.

Outcome: A working beta that let a Web3 community record who actually did the work, and split equity on that record rather than on memory.

Project inclusions: Product design, UI/UX, wallet and governance flows, on-chain contribution ledger.

Web3 App Development Australia — Accord Case Study

Governance without the token launch

Most DAO tooling assumes you have already minted a token. Accord did not. It was a no-code, no-token governance app for Web3 communities and startups that wanted to start tracking contributions for equity on day one, before there was anything to trade.

The Product

Members verify each other's contributions. Verified work is recorded on-chain as proof, and rewarded with a slice of equity. Every member's slice and contribution history is visible to every other member, so the split is an artefact of the record rather than a negotiation. On founding, contributors receive tokens or equity in the new entity.

Key Features

• Peer verification of contributions, so a claim needs a second signature
• Contributions written to the blockchain as durable proof of work
• Equity slices allocated against the verified record
• Proposals with votes, contributor lists and threaded discussion in one view
• Wallet balance and weekly earnings for each member

Where it got to

Accord reached beta and was made available to the community only. It was never released to the app stores, and the engagement concluded there. It is here because the design work stands on its own: the hard part of governance tooling is making contribution legible before there is money on the table, and that is what this build addressed.

Startup and Web3 products carry gates that arrive late and hurt — token classification, disclosure, and the securities question sitting underneath any equity split. A Launch Gate Audit exists to find those before launch rather than after. See the rest of the portfolio.
