It is being developed by [The DAO Masons](https://www.x.com/daomasons).\n\nGrant Ships has since received a followup grant through the Thank Arb Firestarters program for additional development. \n\n### How do we know it works? \n\nWe tested it with a 90K ARB pilot funding program. Three 'ship operator' teams competed to best allocate their portion of the funds within the \"Web3 Gaming on Arbitrum\" funding domain. \n\n### Evolution in Action\nGrant Ships is built on the premise that explicit and visible competition, accountability and selection pressure on grants programs will force them to mature into something that is both effective and aligned with the desires of the DAO.\n\n### Pilot Overview\nA detailed, graphical breakdown where we grade our performance on each of these 4 aspects of the Flywheel is available in our [Pilot Restrospective PDF](https://grantships.fun/pilotretro.pdf) - it is worth a scroll. \n\n### Onchain Capital Allocation Handbook\nOn this evolution front, Grant Ships was featured in Kevin Owocki's *[Onchain Capital Allocation Handbook](https://allobook.gitcoin.co/src/pdf/onchain-capital-allocation.pdf)*\n\n## Video Overviews:\n\n### Grant Ships Pilot Overview\n[![Grant Ships Pilot Overview](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/BJoFf8Nxyl.png)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qsoUrpjchA)\n\n### Feature Spotlight: Dual-token Voting & Badges:\n[![Feature Spotlight: Dual-token Voting & Badges](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/Sy5gQ8EgJl.png)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9c2zpyYMJk)\n\n### Feature Spotlight: Project Profiles and Grant Applications:\n[![Feature Spotlight: Project Profiles and Grant Applications](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/ryGF7UNekx.png)](https://youtu.be/BGwaYuGV5yk)\n\n### How Can Arbitrum Fund Web3 Gaming?:\n[![How Can Arbitrum Fund Web3 Gaming](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/B1FAXUVx1g.png)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LBnCFTLrrQ)\n\n### Coming Up\nOver the next few weeks we will be highlighting some of the projects that were funded during the pilot alongside some of the features and capabilities that should be of interest to the voting members of Arbitrum DAO.
