A View Into DAOs: DeepDAO Releases Full Data API
DeepDAO’s API reveals the most comprehensive data on the DAO ecosystem * Millions of DAO Experience profiles, white lists, DAO power dynamics, and governance and treasury time series
The numbers are in the thousands, the millions, and billions. Thousands of DAOs, millions of DAO participants, and billions of dollars managed by DAOs. Dozens of proposals and sometimes thousands of votes are created every day, deciding the fate of large amounts of money. DeepDAO’s site has shown these numbers for over two years, and today we are taking a large step forward and releasing our DAO Data API v.01.
The API is currently served in two packages, Starter and Pro.
Our goal is to serve the most comprehensive, deepest data analytics about DAOs. The following is an overview of the existing API data points. More are added each week, so make sure to check our documentation regularly.
Coalitions, White Lists, Time Series Data
Here are some of the data sections we’re excited about:
DAO Power Dynamics
In DAOs, and in any other kind of group, people don’t work, or vote by themselves. They do it with their friends, and people with whom they have a mutual interest. We call these subgroups of people, who vote with each other, coalitions.
If the group operates without structure, and without transparency, voting coalitions are sometimes called an “invisible elite” because they have power that may remain hidden from others. With DeepDAO’s coalitions breakdown, the DAO power dynamics is out in the open, and you can analyze the DAO governance, and DAO control structure, to a much deeper degree than just by looking at the top stakeholders.
We provide 2 and 3 people coalitions for all the DAOs on our platform. For some we go further and provide as many as 10 people coalitions!
White Lists
The four endpoints in the White Lists section pack enormous power: you can create any segment of the entire active DAO participants population, and get an answer whether a certain person (address) belongs to this group.
Are you looking to airdrop a token to the most active voters in DeFi? You can find them here. The most active voters in NFT DAOs in late 2021, at the height of the bull market? Create a new white list and you got it.
Or maybe you want to reward governance participants in your DAO? Or invite another DAO’s participants to take a look at your new, thematically related DAO? Create a white list and easily find the people who match your search.
Time Series Data
This one is popular among the most curious researchers. With our time series data points you can track trends in the ecosystem, and even look at correlations between active governance and strength of treasury, or vice versa.
API Sections Overview
Ecosystem stats: DeepDAO’s overview of the DAO ecosystem. The total treasury size, total number of proposals in all the governance platforms on DeepDAO, total votes, number of governance token holders and number of active voters and proposal creators.
Organizations: The Organizations data points return a full list of all 5000 DAOs on DeepDAO, and a breakdown of the most significant ones by categories. The highlights of this section are Coalitions, Top People in each DAO, and a white list of whether a person (address) is a member of a certain DAO.
People: the People API section spans the full DAO experience of each DAO participant. This includes all DAOs the person is part of, all their votes and proposals. The People data point also delivers each DAOist’s participation score, and DAO score ranking.
Proposals: Full governance proposals for each DAO, and active proposals in the entire ecosystem.
White Lists: the white lists section allows you to create custom segmentations for the entire population of DAOists. Use cases for white lists include targeted airclaims to top people in governance, data driven NFTs, DAOist rewards, and more.
Time series: full daily number of votes, proposals, voters, and treasury size from as early as 2018 (although there were very few DAOs back then). This section includes ecosystem-wide stats, and individual DAO stats.
Plans and Pricing
We currently serve our API in two packages, Starter and Pro packages.
Starter is priced at $25 a month, and $250 if you buy a yearly subscription (2 months free). Pro costs $450 a month, or $4500 with a yearly subscription (again, two months free).
