# Fundwork Technical Roadmap

> What is in scope for the Fundwork alpha, what is planned before public launch, and what is under evaluation for later versions.

This page summarizes where Fundwork is today, what is scoped for the public launch architecture, and what is being evaluated for later. It is a status document, not a commitment on dates.

<Note>
  Fundwork is currently in **alpha**. Dates are not assigned to any item on this roadmap. Items may move between categories as design and testing progress.
</Note>

## Alpha (current focus)

The alpha is focused on getting the core marketplace loop right.

* Privy authentication and session management.
* Base Account integration for user payment identity.
* Profiles for talent, clients, and organizations.
* Opportunities: contracts, bounties, and campaigns.
* Applications and proposals.
* Submissions and revision flows.
* Persistent backend data across all marketplace records.
* Core marketplace workflows end to end.

See [Architecture](/technical/architecture) for how these pieces fit together today.

## Pre-launch (planned)

The following items are planned before Fundwork exits alpha and opens to a broader public.

* USDC settlement testing across the full payment lifecycle.
* Gas sponsorship through a paymaster with allowlist policy. See [Gasless Transactions](/technical/gasless-transactions).
* Backend transaction verification hardening. See [Payment Architecture](/technical/payment-architecture).
* Full smart contract test suite. See [Smart Contract Testing](/technical/smart-contract-testing).
* Escrow contract design and specification. See [Escrow Design](/technical/escrow-design).
* Published dispute policy for escrowed opportunities. See [Dispute Resolution](/technical/dispute-resolution).
* Monitoring across payment infrastructure, paymaster usage, and privileged actions. See [Security](/technical/security).
* Independent smart contract security review before meaningful funds are handled onchain.

<Warning>
  Fundwork will not describe payment contracts as "audited" until an independent security review is complete. The pre-launch list above is the intended scope of that work.
</Warning>

## Later (potential)

These items are under evaluation for later versions and are not committed for the launch scope.

* Production escrow deployed to Base mainnet, integrated with dispute paths.
* Sponsored transactions at scale, with broader coverage as costs and abuse patterns are understood.
* Agent-compatible opportunities with declared verification methods. See [Agentic Transactions](/technical/agentic-transactions).
* Agent wallets participating in marketplace flows.
* Automated work verification for objectively verifiable opportunity categories.
* Organization treasury workflows for team-managed funding.
* Protocol and API integrations for external systems that want to source or fund work through Fundwork.

## How to Read This Page

* Items in **Alpha** are things you can observe in the product today.
* Items in **Pre-launch** are work in progress. They are the intended scope for public launch but should not be assumed live until the corresponding page describes them as available.
* Items in **Later** are exploratory. They may change substantially or be dropped based on what is learned in alpha and pre-launch.

When in doubt, the individual technical pages under this section are the authoritative source for what is currently available versus planned.
