## idea brainstorm
**raidguild website chat interfaces**
- talk to the handbook / dao / hackmd / github
- onboarding helper
- workshops around
- email flows
- cohort host/onboarding 
- cohort dungeon academy

**non technical participation**
- prompt help
- gather knowledge expert information/docs
- design agent workflows (example client relations/onboarding/escrow)

Here are some ideas for the open hack portion of the cohort that align with creating meta agent and AI tools for Raid Guild or the cohort itself:

### **Product Development Tools**
1. **AI-Powered Proposal Generator**: An AI agent that helps generate project proposals, estimates, and timelines based on client inputs and templates.
2. **Feature Prioritization Assistant**: An AI tool that analyzes project specs and client priorities to recommend MVP features.
3. **Design Feedback Bot**: An agent that provides feedback on mockups or wireframes using user experience principles.

### **Client Management**
4. **Client Intake AI Assistant**: Automates the client onboarding process, gathering details and syncing them into project management tools like Notion or Trello.
5. **Client Health Tracker**: A dashboard with AI-driven insights into project status, milestones, and client satisfaction metrics.
6. **Follow-Up Email Generator**: A tool to generate personalized follow-up emails based on client interactions or missed deadlines.

### **Project Management**
7. **AI Task Manager**: An agent that converts meeting notes into actionable tasks, assigns them to team members, and tracks progress.
8. **Time Tracker AI**: Monitors project activities and helps identify bottlenecks or inefficiencies in workflows.
9. **Retrospective Summarizer**: A bot that generates summaries and action points from retrospective meetings.

### **Social Engagement**
10. **Guild Social Media Strategist**: An agent that analyzes engagement metrics and suggests content ideas or posting schedules for Raid Guild's platforms.
11. **Community Pulse AI**: Tracks sentiment and activity in Discord or social media channels to provide insights into community engagement.
12. **Content Amplifier**: An AI tool that repurposes content like blog posts, tweets, or Discord messages into multiple formats for broader reach.

### **Sales**
13. **Lead Qualification Agent**: An AI assistant that analyzes incoming client requests to score and prioritize leads based on budget, scope, and alignment with Raid Guild values.
14. **Sales Pitch Generator**: Automates the creation of tailored pitch decks or presentations based on client needs and previous successful projects.
15. **CRM Enhancement Tool**: AI integration into existing CRM systems to predict lead behavior and suggest follow-ups.

### **Reputation**
16. **Reputation Ledger**: A blockchain-integrated system that tracks contributions, projects, and social engagements to build and display member reputations.
17. **Peer Review Agent**: A tool for guild members to give constructive feedback or endorsements for each other’s work, contributing to reputation scores.
18. **Guild Member Highlights AI**: Automatically generates posts or emails highlighting significant member achievements and contributions.

### **Cohort-Specific Tools**
19. **Cohort Feedback Agent**: A bot that collects real-time feedback from participants during events and provides actionable insights to organizers.
20. **Dynamic Pairing Tool**: AI that matches cohort members for pair programming or team-building exercises based on skills and interests.
21. **Cohort Knowledge Graph**: A tool that maps out the skills, resources, and projects in the cohort, making it easier to collaborate.

These hacks not only create practical tools but also showcase the cohort’s creativity and skills. Let me know if you'd like more details on any of these!

**open hack sessions**
open hack sessions will be in the morning
topics will include ai product pipeline/workflows
- code (cursor/copilot/v0.dev)
- video
- PM
- client relations
- PKM

**demoday rewards**
2-3k distro to participants

**bounties**
season 7 projects (DM)

## Goals
- level up the guilds AI game
- engage new people in the space

## Season 7 Retros and DATA and RIP

### Retro
**participant** https://www.figma.com/board/86W2naPGubO6a1B3IFaVBV/RGs7-retro?node-id=108-1942&t=Ib5MXMPKaj9lfL5t-1

**things that went well:**
> Amazing speakers, organizers with a lot of experience and value. Great place to connect with talented people from diverse backgrounds

> Keep getting great speakers! Participants really enjoyed being able to connect with experienced people.

> project were really cool aspect of the cohort

**Things that need work**

> Better resources coordination. There were people who worked on multiple projects and projects that were missing some roles while other projects had multiple people with the same role.

> Better promotion of the guild on social media

> Bounties should be sortied before the start of the cohort

**Data**
~ 60 initial participants
~ 20 made it to and participated in demo day. 8 projects submited
~ 3 eth in bounties distributed across RG projects, 1 eth in operations costs (More details needed here)
~ general engagement and awerness boost (need more data???)
~ RGVII token number up. liquidity and price


**Host retro**... still needed
- thoughts on audience
- thoughts on overhead
- things that worked well
- things that did not work well
