DAOCouncil is an innovative decentralized governance platform that combines traditional DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) voting with AI-powered deliberation. Here's a comprehensive breakdown:
Core Concept:
- The platform facilitates structured debates on DAO proposals where human participants can discuss and AI jurors analyze and judge the arguments.
- Instead of relying solely on token-weighted voting (which can lead to whale dominance), decisions are influenced by the quality of arguments and AI juror deliberation.
Key Components:
Debate System:
- Each debate has a specific topic, multiple sides/positions, and assigned AI jurors
- Debates are structured around concrete proposals with specific actions and funding requirements
- Users can participate by presenting arguments for different sides of the debate
AI Jurors:
- Multiple AI jurors with distinct personas analyze the debate
- Each juror:
-- Processes the entire conversation history
-- Evaluates arguments from different sides
-- Provides reasoned judgments and explanations for their decisions
-- Updates their stance as the debate progresses
Key Features:
- Debate Creation: Users can create new debates with customized action prompt that should be taken if proposal is approved.
- Live Deliberation: Real-time discussion with immediate AI juror feedback
- Structured Arguments: Support for different stances and positions within each debate
- Transparent Reasoning: AI jurors provide detailed explanations for their decisions
Governance Mechanism:
- Combines human input with AI analysis
- Focuses on argument quality over token quantity
- Creates a more democratic and reasoned approach to DAO governance
- Helps reduce the impact of whale voting by emphasizing quality of discourse
The platform essentially creates a hybrid governance model where AI agents serve as impartial analysts of human arguments, helping to create more balanced and well-reasoned decisions in DAO governance. This approach aims to make DAO governance more accessible, fair, and focused on the merit of arguments rather than just the size of token holdings.
Here's how we built our AI-powered DAO governance system:

- Deployed on Autonome Altlayer for efficient agent execution and resource management
Database & Backend
- PostgreSQL as primary database
- Manages debate states and user data
- Handles AI juror decisions
- Enables real-time operations
- Supports concurrent user sessions
Frontend Stack
- React + Vite
- TailwindCSS
