Solution

We want to create a marketplace for them to sell their work and be fairly compensated in a decentralized safe environement via a DAPP.

Problem:

Writers are subjected to unfair treatment as a result of their views and stories. Their freedom and rights are often at risk.

Detailed Plan

Storytime will be marketed via a DAPP, and will categorize written material like a traditional library would. We want to provide a safe decentralized environment where authors can choose to keep their identity anonymous or not via our interface and allow their material to be bought and paid for in ADA (using ADAPay by CoTI)

Storytime will require the services of 1 full time dev (40hrs/week@$50/hr)and 2 part time devs (20hrs/week per dev @$40/hr). It will take approx 2 months total time ( $32,000 dev costs) to create an MVP. This budget was prepared in consultation with the devs. and approx $9200 in fixed salaried costs for the founder @$40/hr@30 hours per week.

There are other nominal costs but they will be borne by the founder and the devs. We already have most of the equipment and software so there is nothing to add to the budget at this time.

The budget for salaries for the developers is below market price and the developers are looking to take an ownership interest which the founder agrees is the right thing to do.

As a sweetener and a thank you to PROJECT CATALYST we would like to offer to repay $41,200 from the fees generated from the use of the DAPP. Therefore inside of 1 year we hope to have fully reimbursed Project Catalyst.
