[IMPACT] Please describe your proposed solution.
Any DAPPS / staking platform or lending/borrowing protocols would want to visualize the performance of their contracts.
A typical example like number of users visiting, staked / unstaked value, volume , timelines to name a few to adjust their strategies and business plans.
However creating such Analytics data may not be a simple task as it involves large amount of data points, historical and current data added to converting the data to a graphical format.
Presenting Unmarshal's Parser , which can do all of the above with minimal technical requirement and 0 coding. All you need to know is the contract address to be indexed. By just entering the contract address in our indexing , our solution will be able to
- Index all the events on the contract address
- Track all the transactions that have been made on the contract address
- add the data in databases hosted on cloud.
- Make them available for users to create Dashboards from it
- Create a GrpahQL to fetch their own data whenever they need it.
All in few mouse clicks
So to put it plainly, the parser is a tool developed in-house at Unmarshal to automatically index data associated with any given smart contract deployed on Ethereum, BNB, Polygon, and 8 other chains. Support is also available for testnets. Once indexed, the data is accessible to the users through multiple avenues that make a smart contract developer's life easier.
We wish to extend our support to Cardano chain adding value to the Cardano Ecosystem.
[IMPACT] Please describe how your proposed solution will address the Challenge that you have submitted it in.
By Creating the Parser on Cardano Ecosytem, we enable endless possibilities that could arise from Users wanted to understand the on chain data, wanting to create dashboards themselves from the data they index, giving a first hand and realtime information on performance and other metrics that could help govern projects and other protocols on time.
As the saying goes, Sky is the limit and we feel this could benefit the Cardano Ecosystem to a great extent
[IMPACT] What are the main risks that could prevent you from delivering the project successfully and please explain how you will mitigate each risk?
Well, Cardano ecosystem is built a little differently from the other EVM based chains and the challenge for us would be on learning the nuances around the Cardano genesis code and to build on top of it.
How ever with experts in our team and technical Guidance from our partners Konma we should be able to achieve the expected Outcome.

[FEASIBILITY] If you are funded, will you return to Catalyst in a later round for further funding? Please explain why / why not.
Most Likely. Unmarshal is always on its edge to provide multiple avenues for DAPPs , or traders to be connected to the Ecosystem. Our technical & Product team have lined up many number of useful products to the DeFi ecosystem which will benefit App builders and End Users extensively.
[AUDITABILITY] Please describe what you will measure to track your project's progress, and how will you measure these?
Our Progress will depend on the adaptability of our Parser by the Cardano community.
We will have a dashboard monitoring the following :
- Number of contract addresses indexed
- Number of dashboard created
- Number of users
- Number of requests
- Number of applications and DAOs using this data.
[AUDITABILITY] What does success for this project look like?
At least 25 dashboards created per month on the Cardano ecosystem will ensure this effort has emerged successful.
[AUDITABILITY] Please provide information on whether this proposal is a continuation of a previously funded project in Catalyst or an entirely new one.
This is a new proposal.
