Edgar Platform
Open-Source Automation for Grassroots Impact
Edgar is an open-source toolkit built and maintained by the TrueSight DAO community. Three layers: a spreadsheet-native UX anyone can use today, a Python runtime any other DAO can fork tomorrow, and an AI operator that runs the place when nobody's awake. All open-source.
The problem
Grassroots Movements Struggle to Scale
Most impact-focused initiatives have willing volunteers but lack the infrastructure to coordinate them effectively.
Limited Funding
Many rely on volunteer time rather than fiat donations.
Complex Web3 Barriers
Wallet setup, gas fees, staking, and DAO governance models are confusing and often speculative, discouraging participation.
High Costs & Technical Hurdles
Off-the-shelf web platforms charge monthly fees, and custom blockchain solutions require expensive developers and server maintenance.
Security & Irreversibility Risks
Blockchain vaults and governance tokens can be hacked, and wrong transactions can't be reversed.
The result? Good intentions stall because operations don't scale.
The solution
Three Open Layers, One Stack
Edgar removes the friction with three layers of open-source infrastructure — each one preserves the layer below.
Layer 1 · Contributor edge
No code. Familiar tools.
Google Sheets, Google Apps Script, Telegram, and the DApp. Anyone who can use a spreadsheet can coordinate contributions and governance. No wallet, no gas fees, no crypto expertise. Hosted on Google + GitHub at minimal operating cost.
Layer 2 · Open runtime
A Python runtime you can fork.
The signed-event API is a Python FastAPI service (dao_protocol) plus a Python SDK (dao_client) — fork it, host it, point your own DAO at it. Every contribution is an RSA-signed event with rollback by design, so a wrong action can be reversed.
Layer 3 · AI operator
An AI that runs the DAO.
truesight_autopilot is an LLM agent with 36 tools that handles the ops work — Drive/Sheets/Docs/Gmail reach, AWS read across both DAO-contributed accounts, GitHub fix-PRs with draft auto-promote, PDF reports, QR scanning. Every action is RSA-signed by a governor first. Currently private to TrueSight; ship-to-beta only, gated on green CI. Anyone can fork the repo and point it at their own DAO.
Edgar turns volunteer energy into measurable, scalable impact — and increasingly, runs itself.
Open-Source on GitHub
All Edgar layers are open-source and freely available. Contribute, fork, or run your own.
