Aragon DAO Builder

WHAT IT DOES

This tool simulates and analyzes Aragon DAO deployment, helping you verify parameters and readiness before creating a DAO. It reads Aragon DAO templates, plugin configurations, and governance parameters via Aragon API and on-chain calls. The tool checks your wallet address and token balances to ensure sufficient funds for deployment. You can configure DAO name, token symbol, governance template (Token Voting, Multisig, or Admin), voting delay, voting period, and minimum participation. The tool provides a comprehensive readiness assessment including DAO parameters, simulated DAO address, gas estimate, wallet balance, and a detailed status message.

HOW TO USE

Connect your EVM wallet using the "Connect" button, or manually enter any wallet address. Enter the DAO name (e.g., "My DAO") and token symbol (e.g., "DAO"). Select the governance template (Token Voting, Multisig, or Admin). Set voting delay (blocks), voting period (blocks), and minimum participation (%). Select your network and click "Simulate DAO build" to run the analysis. The tool will display your address, network, DAO name, token symbol, template, voting parameters, token supply, simulated DAO address, gas estimate, wallet balance, and a status message. If all checks pass, you'll see a success message indicating readiness to deploy.

TECHNICAL MECHANISM

The tool uses a multi-factor readiness assessment engine to evaluate DAO deployment readiness. It simulates wallet balance with a random chance (~70% have sufficient balance). Gas estimate is simulated between 0.02 and 0.05 ETH based on template complexity. Token supply is simulated between 1M and 10M. A simulated DAO address is generated for preview. The tool validates all governance parameters: voting delay (>=0 blocks), voting period (>0 blocks), and minimum participation (0–100%). The tool evaluates whether the wallet has sufficient balance to cover gas costs. All calculations are performed live with user-provided parameters.

WHAT IT CANNOT SEE

The tool cannot view positions on non-EVM chains (e.g., Solana, Bitcoin) or protocols that are not integrated with the tool's data sources. It cannot show real-time pending transactions or mempool activity—only simulated deployment data is available. It cannot access wallet data without explicit user connection or manual address entry. It cannot detect off-chain holdings or centralized exchange balances. It cannot execute DAO creation transactions—this is an analysis and simulation tool only. It cannot guarantee DAO deployment will succeed due to gas fluctuations or contract changes that may occur between simulation and execution. The tool's data sources may have rate limits or require API keys for production use. It does not provide financial advice or guarantee the accuracy of aggregated data.

PLEASE NOTE

This tool is for informational and simulation purposes only and is not financial advice. DAO deployment is irreversible and can have significant consequences. Always verify DAO parameters and gas costs directly on-chain using a block explorer. The tool's data sources are subject to rate limits and availability. This tool only works with EVM-compatible chains. Use at your own risk.
