We are currently in the process of starting our Beta round for Arbitrum DAO. 

In this beta round, we aim to observe user behavior and make modifications to both the game rules and the product to better fit the needs of our users. 

We plan to build a new voting interface for the upcoming voting round. This interface will allow voters to access all the relevant data (ship portfolio, badges) and make informed decisions. 

After the beta round, we plan to make adjustments to the contracts based on feedback and performance, get the contracts audited, and then apply the recommended changes. 

We also plan to add or integrate with Grant review systems to help score the performance and impact of grants issued through Grant ships. 

We plan to retool our backend so that we can more effectively index IPFS data and improve loading times. Having all of the data consolidated at the indexer layer will help create a single API that community members can use to integrate with Grant Ships. 

All this is in addition to fulfilling many bug fixes, enhancements, and feature requests that are surfaced through the beta round.

During this period, we plan to bring Grant Ships to other ecosystems.  

We plan to do all this over the next 3-4 months.

** Contract audits would depend on funding amounts raised in the future

Long term: 
- New Allo strategies for new types of Grant Ships (ex. retro Grant ships, or RFP grant ships) 
- Notification systems.
- Better impact analytic tools.
- Social features to help form grant teams.
