Funding Cadence

How Funds will be released & managed

Funding Cadence Overview

The funding is structured in three phases, all contributing to the development of the MVP. Each phase lasts three months, focusing on critical milestones. Progress reports and financial updates will be provided monthly to ensure transparency and effective budget management.

Each month, we provide an update, ensuring transparency in progress and financial management.

🗓 Monthly Reporting Schedule:

Week 1 of Each Month → Submit a progress + financial report.
Week 2 of Each Quarter → Internal review of development progress and budget adjustments.

📄 Report Contents:

Each report will include:
Milestone Updates – Progress on key goals.
Financial Report – Budget usage and remaining balance.
Challenges & Risks – Current blockers and risk mitigation plans.
Next Steps – Upcoming goals and deliverables.
