I’m casting support for Tally Enterprise.
Tally is not only the incumbent governance interface—it’s deeply embedded in the DAO’s infrastructure and governance workflows. It has supported Compound since 2020 and was purpose-built on top of the Governor framework that Compound itself pioneered. Tally’s involvement in past CGP-funded initiatives, like customized Compound-specific proposal flows and UI integrations, has already delivered tangible improvements to the DAO’s governance UX.
While I’m open to innovation, switching to alternative providers at this stage—most of whom rely on new, untested interfaces or require integration with incompatible or parallel governance stacks—introduces unnecessary complexity. Compound has already made significant investments in its Governor-based stack. Now is not the time to introduce fragmentation or transition risk, especially when the DAO is prioritizing cost discipline and reestablishing competitiveness in the lending sector.
Tally’s Enterprise plan builds on existing integrations and offers important features not present in other proposals:
- Seatbelt integration for security assurance, integrating with existing Compound-specific alerts already live in Discord
- MarketAdmin support for risk parameter proposals that increase time to make risk parameter adjustments
- Tally Zero, a decentralized IPFS-hosted frontend for increased redundancy
- Real-time analytics and delegate dashboards tailored to Compound governance, including the ability to track treasury Safes
Choosing the self-serve (status quo) option may seem cheaper, but comes with hidden costs. Tally would begin charging a 0.25% fee on every treasury transaction proposed through their UI—fees that could quickly approach or exceed the $150K Enterprise budget if Compound continues its current treasury activity levels. Paying for the full Enterprise plan avoids these fees while securing guaranteed support, resilience features, and future-proof tooling.
For these reasons, Tally Enterprise is the most practical option that keeps Compound’s governance stable and focused.
