Solution

We want to upload conventional documents on Cardano and attach basic smart contracts to them. This way we have a notarized signatures.

Problem

We need easy way to put legal documents, and basic smart contracts on Cardano with no code.

AdaSign

Basic idea is to upload legal document (if necessary), and allow for simplified description of smart contracts that can later be read by conventional contract analyst in English.

That means that our basic "code templates" will be used to generate English text that describes contract behaviour and provides transparency.

In order to provide a conventional record, we would also include PDF of intended contract, if there is a conventional legal contract with "terms of use".

Together with payments in ADA and clear descriptions, such smart contracts would allow to move bureaucracy entire onto ADA blockchain, together with document flows.

It would also let users analyze smart contracts behind each document by using English description of the policy.

We request a see funding for developing a compiler that provides both English and Plutus description of each contract, and an MVP interface that allows to manage smart contract together with filled PDF forms with data.

Future user experience will be that of uploading a conventional Word document, choosing smart contract template, and deploying a smart contract application on Cardano from SaaS application.

This would allow an easy migration of national bureaucracies to digital domain, along with smart contract that prescribe their application.

We will allow transformation of national bureaucracy into blockchain applications with notarization and cloud storage of the signed documents. This would radically simplify the bureaucracy.

While software part is straightforward, we left a significant adoption and transformation budget in order to publicize the solution and acquire customers. This acquisition of customers will be the longest part of the project.

1. Basic uploading of the documents and signing them by multiple parties in parallel.

- IPFS storage of the signed documents

2. Attaching template smart contracts:

- flow of multiple signatures
- filling additional smart contract parameters
- cancellation

4. Multistage confirmations and negotiations over documents:

- attachment of payments and tokens in-contract

- voting of signers for organizational decisions

3. Community support:

- Tutorials based on existing contract library with common documents: employment contract, formal request, affidavit
- establish community support forum
- automated status page for testing availability of the end-user functionality
- automated status page for testing performance of signing

Deliverables:

* Environment for uploading and signing documents on Cardano - 20k$

* Smart contract generator based on information attached to document - 15k$

* IPFS server for holding the attachment data - 3k$ (AWS cost)

* tutorial: two phase commit (Escrow) for two-party contract - 3k$

* tutorial: atomic swap for multi-party contract - 3k$

* tutorial: submitter-reviewer-approver - 3k$

* tutorial: paid application for the government service - 3k$

* tutorial: delivery of the NFT - 3k$

* tutorial: refinanced purchase of tokens - 3k$

* user forum - 3k$

* status page: 6k$

* advertising among: 13k$

* hosting of the service for 12 months: 6k$

* [Michał](https://gitlab.com/mjgajda) is a professional software developer with a background in functional programming, logic, data analytics, and agile software development. Within the past five years, he presented at events associated with ICFP, SkillsExchange, LambdaDays, Haskell.Love, XP Agile Programming Conference, Data Science Europe, EACSL, CCC, LAP. He is interested in software technology, constructive logic, data analytics, and epistemology.

* Julian Ospald is an experienced Cardano developer with many contributions to open source in Haskell ecosystem.

* [Migamake.com](https://www.migamake.com) will provide resources for the work, including high quality code reviews.

Our advisors:

* James Haver is the original and primary developer of the Dexter decentralized exchange.

* Szymon Zioło is experienced business analysts, who worked on numerous public contracts for various aspects of software design, specification, and planning.

Our KPIs will be:

1. automated tests of the SaaS functionality displayed as a status page

2. Number of customers and smart contracts signed and displayed on the front page of the project.

People will sign the documents using the AdaSign.
At least one big organization will use AdaSign instead of bespoke bureaucracy solution due to notarization capabilities.

This is a new proposal.
