[Looking Beta Testers] Introducing Curia AI: Your Onchain & Offchain Governance Assistant

GM Arbitrum community,

As active members of the DAO, we know how challenging it can be to get a complete picture. Critical information is often scattered across forum posts, voting platforms, and delegate profiles, making it difficult to collect, synthesize, and draw meaningful conclusions.

To solve this, we’ve been building Curia AI, as part of our mission to empower DAOs with superior data-driven decision-making tools.

What is Curia AI?

Curia AI is a purpose-built AI assistant that understands and connects both onchain and offchain data. It analyzes information from various sources, including:

  • Forum Discussions

  • Onchain & Snapshot Proposals

  • Tally Profiles

  • and more

The goal is to provide a single, intelligent interface where delegates and community members can ask complex questions and receive synthesized, data-backed answers, helping everyone make more informed decisions.

How It Works

Under the hood, Curia AI consists of a chat interface (the client) and our MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. When you ask a question, the AI uses our MCP tools to retrieve factual, verifiable data from the sources mentioned above. This grounds its responses in reality and significantly reduces the risk of AI hallucinations.

What’s New?

We recently concluded a closed testing round with a group of Arbitrum delegates. Their invaluable feedback has been instrumental, and we’ve already shipped significant improvements for this public beta, including:

  • Deeper Delegate Analysis: You can now ask Curia AI to look up a specific delegate’s voting record and filter their votes by the specific proposer.

  • Enhanced Forum Search: You can now search for specific topics, keywords, or mentions within forum discussions, helping you find the context you need faster.

  • Smarter Conversational AI: Curia AI is now more conversational. It doesn’t just fetch data; it can help you analyze and brainstorm creative questions about the information it finds.

  • Seamless Cross-Platform Linking: We’ve improved Curia’s ability to connect the dots between a Tally profile, a forum post, and an onchain vote, making it easier to follow the complete lifecycle of a decision.

Become a Beta Tester

We are now ready to launch our MVP and are looking for engaged Arbitrum DAO members to become our first beta testers. Your feedback will be invaluable in refining the product.

To get access, please follow these simple steps:

  1. Join our dedicated Telegram group for beta testers: Telegram Link

  2. Request an access code: Once you’re in the group, simply post a message like "Hi, I'd like to request beta access!"

  3. Receive your code: We will then send you a direct message (DM) with your unique access code and instructions to get started.

Please note that Curia AI is still in active development, so you may encounter bugs or errors. Reporting these issues is one of the most helpful things you can do!

What’s Next?

Our long-term vision extends beyond this chat application. We plan to release our MCP server as a standalone product, allowing other developers and clients to build their own applications using our powerful data tools.

We’re incredibly excited to share this with the community and build it with your input. Thank you for your support!
