> [!IMPORTANT]
> Compensation cap: **[FILL IN AMOUNT]**

Before picking this up, read the [Retroactive Grants post](https://forum.livepeer.org/t/about-the-retroactive-grant-applications-category/3250/2?u=mehrdad) in full. Key points:

- **Not pay-for-delivery.** Compensation is based on demonstrated adoption and community impact — not on shipping. Real, named community contributors must use your work and publicly attest to it. Building in isolation, then asking for a grant, does not qualify.
- **Talk to the community first.** A public discussion (Discord or Forum) about the problem must precede the work, and evidence of it must be part of your application. No prior discussion, no tempcheck, no public signal = won't pass review.

**Required steps before investing more time:**
1. Read the [original Retroactive Grants post](https://forum.livepeer.org/t/about-the-retroactive-grant-applications-category/3250/2?u=mehrdad) in full.
2. Start a public discussion (Discord or Forum). Get input. Confirm direction.
3. Secure at least one community proof point — a Discord thread with positive signal, a Review Team acknowledgement, or evidence of active adoption.
4. Identify, by name, who has this problem.
5. Build, ship, and confirm it's actually being used.
6. Apply with at least one named community contributor willing to publicly attest to your work's impact on the forum post.

Skipping steps 2, 3, 4, or 6 will halt the application. Reach out to **jj.a.ss.o.nn_everestnode** on Discord before you start building.
