Who it is for
Lucia Ferreira teaches high school chemistry in Porto Alegre and holds small amounts of ARB, OP, UNI, ENS and AAVE that she bought to learn how DAOs work. Proposals arrive in five places, written in dense English with links to long forum threads, and she missed 9 of 14 votes last quarter because she found out after the deadline. Vote Brief finds the live proposals her wallets can vote on, writes each one up in plain words with what changes and the strongest case for and against, links the full text, and reminds her 48, 24 and 2 hours before each deadline. It never votes for her. She ticks that she read both sides, chooses, and signs the vote in her own wallet.

A holder app that reads which governance tokens your wallets hold on Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism and Base, finds live Snapshot, Tally and Agora proposals you can vote on, writes a plain brief for each with what changes, the case for and against and who says what, sends reminders by email and Telegram before each deadline, and opens each vote in your own wallet to sign, plus a vote history and a remove my wallets button.

Why it is new
What exists today, and what this does differently
What is new
Snapshot, Tally and Agora show proposals and send some notifications, and delegate tools such as Karma and Boardroom track delegates. What is new is a holder first digest: it starts from your own wallets, writes one plain page per proposal with both sides required, translates it, reminds you on a schedule you pick, and leaves the vote to your own signature. It is not built for delegates; Delegate Desk is.
Closest things out there
Snapshot and Tally email notifications; Agora for the Optimism Collective; Boardroom and Karma for governance dashboards and delegate tracking; DAO newsletters such as weekly governance roundups. None write a both sides brief per proposal for small holders across DAOs.
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 it unlocks
The human in it
A teacher with a small bag of tokens gets the same clear picture as a full time delegate, and her vote counts because she cast it on time.

Why it matters and how it really works

The need
Most token holders never vote. Proposals live in several places (Snapshot, Tally, Agora, forum threads), are written in dense English for insiders, and deadlines pass before small holders even hear about them. People who bought governance tokens to take part end up leaving every decision to a handful of large delegates without ever choosing that.
What exists and what is new
Proposal platforms show votes and send basic notifications, and dashboards such as Boardroom and Karma track DAOs and delegates. Vote Brief is a holder first take: it starts from your own wallets, writes a one page brief for each live proposal with both sides required, translates it, reminds you on your own schedule and hands the vote to your wallet to sign. It never votes for you. Research verdict: partly exists, medium novelty.

Why own Vote Brief
Most people who hold governance tokens never vote, not because they do not care but because proposals are dense, scattered and found too late. Owning Vote Brief means you run the plain digest that turns each live proposal into one page with both sides, reminds holders before the deadline and lets them sign their own vote. It never votes for anyone, never recommends a choice and never takes money to promote a proposal. Start with one DAO community you know, then offer it to every holder who says governance is too much to follow.
What’s stopping you?
“I am not a governance expert. Can I run this?”
You do not write the briefs by hand. The app writes them from the proposal text with a fixed template, and you read a few each week to check the tone. If you can follow a news story, you can run it.
“What if a brief is wrong or tilted?”
It will happen sometimes. Every brief needs both sides, cites its sources and links the full text. When one is wrong, you send a correction to everyone who saw it, and the agent log shows what changed.
“Will people think I am telling them how to vote?”
Vote Brief never recommends a choice, and you never accept payment from a DAO or delegate to promote a proposal. Say that on your home page and in every newsletter mention.
“Snapshot and Tally already send notifications. Why would anyone pay?”
They notify you that a vote exists. Vote Brief tells a small holder what it means in plain words, in their language, across every DAO they hold, at the moment they need it. That is worth a few dollars a month to people who want to take part.
