Active Project List
Work at Arrow is organized into projects: some build aircraft and hardware, others run the DAO's operations. Funded projects operate under the AIP-006 Projects Framework, with a named leader, a budget cap, and an accountability record checked before any payment releases.
This page is the governance view: what's active, who follows the money, and where to watch progress. For the aircraft themselves, Our Projects is the tour.
Last reviewed: August 2026.

Operations and stewardship
These keep the DAO itself running, proposed under AIP-006 and paid only against public accountability tables.
| Project | What it does | Follow along |
|---|---|---|
| Docs Maintainer & Improver | Ongoing stewardship of the global docs platform: copy, functionality, maintenance, and coverage of everything that ships. Term runs to January 2027 | project repo |
| Media & Social Comms | Arrow's public voice: social content and media presence | project repo |
| Compass | Priority-setting and coordination across the DAO's active work | project repo |
The binding record
The list above is the guided tour. The binding, voted-on record is the projects table in AIP-007, amended each time the DAO creates or closes a project. This table reads it directly, so it is always current:

Proposing a project
Anyone can propose a project. The path runs through a Forum discussion, then the AIP-006 framework for scope and budget, then a Snapshot vote. Start with Submitting a Proposal, and browse the DAO Forum to see live proposals and discussions in flight.
