Why it is new

What exists today, and what this does differently

What is new

The mechanic exists; the novelty is mainly a garden-style UX on top.

Closest things out there

Decidim and clr.fund already run participatory budgeting and quadratic allocation; not separately searched beyond these known products.

Checked with web searches in October 2026. A search is not proof that nothing similar exists, and the market moves fast, so we recheck before every build.

What you own

The whole app, not a starter kit.

The complete Budget Garden app: a school or community gives every household equal seeds to plant in the ideas they want, the treasury funds the garden in order, and every coin has a receipt, with a paywall and steward agent built in.

The need

Schools, neighbourhoods and small DAOs split shared money in meetings few people attend, then argue about it afterwards. Most members never see where their voice went or what the money bought.

What exists and what is new

Participatory budgeting and quadratic allocation already exist: Decidim runs participatory budgets for cities, and clr.fund runs quadratic funding rounds onchain. Budget Garden does not invent the mechanic. What is new is mainly the experience: a small, ready-to-run kit for a single school or club, a live garden that makes every family's seeds visible, and invoices pinned to each funded idea. Research verdict: rare, medium novelty, mostly a UX layer.

The data it runs on

Unlocked when your app is paid in full

1.The mission

Every member of a community sees their voice grow into something real, and can check where every coin went.

2.Why people can't resist it

Watch it grow Beds grow as seeds land, so planting feels like a shared garden rather than a form.

Equal packets Every household gets the same seeds, and gentle quadratic counting stops one loud voice from piling a bed.

Receipts on the tag Each funded bed shows its invoice, payout and photo, so trust grows term after term.

8.Where this is going

Now
One school splits $5,000 with every family planting.
Next
Clubs, tenants' associations and small DAOs run termly gardens with shared supplier lists.
Later
Neighbourhoods match city participatory budgets, with receipts any resident can check.
The world we want
Shared money everywhere is decided by everyone it serves, and every coin can be traced to the thing it built.

Costs and tools are estimates at the time of writing. General information only, not legal or financial advice.

Why own Budget Garden

Shared budgets are usually decided by whoever shouts loudest in the meeting. Own Budget Garden and you run the fair, visual way to decide, from your wallet and brand, with payouts and receipts by contract. The groups, the rounds and the trust are yours.

What’s stopping you?

“Isn't quadratic voting confusing?”

Most people never need to know the math. They plant seeds; the garden shows the result. Explain it in one sentence and leave the formula on a separate page.

“What if people create fake accounts?”

Equal seeds only work with one person, one account. Use an invite list for small groups and a personhood check for bigger ones.

“I can't code.”

You do not need to. Budget Garden arrives working, deployed from your own wallet with a written guide for every step. You will click, paste and fill in names. If you ever want a change you cannot make, the custom option or a freelancer can handle it, but the first launch needs no code.

“Is it really mine?”

Yes. The contract is deployed from your wallet on Optimism, the code sits in your own git repo, and the name and brand are yours. DEPLOYR does not hold your keys or take a cut of what Budget Garden earns. If you stop paying anyone tomorrow, the app keeps running on your wallet.

“What if nobody uses Budget Garden?”

That is the most likely early outcome, and it is fixable. The paths below start with you as the first user, then ten real PTAs, clubs, DAOs and councils deciding how to spend shared money you can name today. If ten people you message do not care after you have shown it to them, you have learned something useful in a week instead of a year.
