Development can start in **March**, first payout at end of month once grant council/manager approves of results of work. We will share monthly updates with development progress and share those on X as we did before. 

At end of april we can look at stats and work done on the portal to see if it is worth it to proceed to stage 2 of the proposal which aims to not only **improve** the portal for Gitcoin but also **expand** it to datasets coming from other communities. Collecting Web3-wide-data in a single place under common schema can be very valuable undertaking as it allows to easily compare platforms/grantees across various metrics in novel ways. 

Roadmap by [month number, amount + main goal]:


1 March	$4000	Better pipeline
2 April	$4000	Better UX
–	–	REVIEW
3 May	$6000	More data
4 June	$6000	Grants Data Portal

**Milestones.** 

Months 1-2 

- add Gitcoin datasets portal, 
- improve contributor documentation
- publish interesting analyses on portal 
- improve CI pipelines and portal infrastructure

 Months 3-4:

- add new platforms to portal (e.g. Giveth, Octant, Drips, Optimism)
- portal supports not only Gitcoin data analysts but is also go-to place for other communities
- try out new forms of serving data (spreadsheets, s3 bucket export)
- produce shared schema joining projects from multiple ecosystems (e.g. `all_grantees` from Gitcoin+Giveth+Octant)
