Quack AI: The AI Snapshot. The AI protocol for Metis on-chain governance

1. Overview

Quack AI is an AI-powered governance platform that enables smarter proposal participation through automatic summarization, voting recommendations, and intelligent delegation. Metis, as a Layer 2 scaling platform with a strong DAO foundation, is seeking to strengthen its governance system with increased forum engagement, deeper integration across tools, and a more informed voter base.

This proposal outlines a staged integration plan that leverages Quack AI’s strengths to complement Metis’s governance vision without replacing Snapshot too early. We propose starting with an MVP-focused approach that highlights AI analysis and bi-directional forum engagement, then progressively unlocks deeper functionalities.

2. Current Capabilities

Quack AI currently supports:

  • Self-hosted Voting Contracts with ERC-20 and ERC-721 token-based power

  • Multi-token weighted voting with customizable weights per project

    • Also supports manual and API-based Voting Power configuration in collaboration with project teams. Projects can define token weights or voting logic if discussed in advance and corresponding data sources are provided.
  • AI-Powered Proposal Analysis, providing:

    • Summary

    • Pro/Con reasoning

    • Evaluation across decentralization, feasibility, long-term impact

  • Delegation System (Live by late May), supporting:

    • User-selected delegates or AI Agents

    • Delegate tagging and historical position summaries

  • Multi-Chain & Multi-Project Layout (BNB, Arbitrum, and more)

3. Proposed Integration Plan for Metis

:wrench: Phase 1 — MVP Integration (Late May – June)

Integrate Metis into Quack AI with the following deliverables:

  • Deploy Quack AI’s voting contracts on Metis

  • Connect to Metis voting power logic and support multi-token strategies

  • Enable Metis Core Team to publish proposals via Quack AI

  • Leverage existing AI-powered features:

    • AI-generated proposal summaries

    • Risk/benefit insights

    • Delegate recommendations (including upcoming AI Agent delegation)

  • Drive significant traffic from proposal views back to the Forum to strengthen discussion loops、

:hammer_and_wrench: Phase 2 — Governance Activation (Late June – Early July)

Enable more open and decentralized participation:

  • Support permissionless proposal creation for qualified community members

  • Allow the Metis team to define proposal creation rules via token thresholds, allowlists, or custom gating logic

  • If technical bandwidth allows, begin UX/feature design for deeper Forum integration in this phase

4. Highlight: AI Proposal Analysis & Forum Integration

Why it matters:

  • Many governance participants struggle to understand complex proposals or track lengthy discussions.

  • Metis wants to retain Forum as a key governance interface while driving more informed engagement.

What we will deliver:

  • AI-powered summaries for every proposal, enriched with:

    • Key arguments from forum threads (if available)

    • Sentiment and controversial issue detection

    • Cross-proposal consistency (compare with previous proposals)

  • Forum-aware summaries linking back to forum thread IDs, comment volume, and trends.

  • Dynamic in-app linking between Quack AI and Metis Forum, enabling bi-directional traffic flow: voters from Quack AI are driven to Forum to dive deeper, while Forum readers are invited to vote or delegate via Quack AI

This creates a mutually reinforcing loop:

  • Forum fuels context for better AI insights

  • AI surfaces key forum content to casual or late voters

  • Quack AI acts as a traffic amplifier for Forum participation by turning passive readers into active contributors

Result: Higher engagement, better decisions, and greater transparency

5. Timeline

Late May – June: Launch Metis MVP governance page on Quack AI
Late June – Early July: Open proposal creation to qualified users

6. Support Requested from Metis

  • Marketing Support

    • Joint blog post + announcement

    • Visibility across Metis Twitter, Forum, and Community Updates

  • Technical Support

    • Provide Forum API access for post/thread metadata

7. Conclusion

Quack AI is not aiming to replace Snapshot overnight. Instead, we offer Metis an AI-native governance layer that makes proposals more accessible, decision-making smarter, and discussion more dynamic. This partnership has the potential to become a flagship model for governance modernization across other DAOs.

We look forward to exploring this opportunity together.
