Please break up your development work into a clear set of milestones
Number | Description | Deliverable | Amount | Start Date | End Date |
|---|
1 | Let me help you with the milestone descriptions and deliverables for each of the three milestones of your Dreamscroll project: Milestone 1 Description This milestone will establish the core engine of Dreamscroll with the following functionality: Integration with Livepeer's AI video pipelines to generate video content from text and images Implementation of DeepSeek-0324 LLM within the elizaOS framework for narrative generation ElevenLabs integration for sound effect generation Development of the branching narrative system that handles story progression based on poll results GitHub repository with complete source code and documentation Working proof-of-concept that can generate videos and handle branching logic, but requires manual posting to social platforms At this stage, I (solo developer) will focus on building the core AI components and ensuring they work together seamlessly. The system will be able to generate complete videos with appropriate visuals, narration, and sound effects based on evolving storylines, but will require manual intervention for social media posting. | A GitHub repository containing the core Dreamscroll engine capable of generating branching narrative videos using Livepeer's AI video pipelines. The system will include LLM integration, story generation capabilities, and will produce complete videos ready for manual posting to social platforms. | $2,500.00 | May 1, 2025 UTC | May 31, 2025 UTC |
2 | This milestone focuses on automation and will add the following functionality: Appium integration with Android emulator for automated content posting Development of automated systems for creating and posting polls across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts Implementation of response collection mechanisms to gather audience choices Creation of a scheduling system to manage content publication timing Development of a content management interface for monitoring the system Full end-to-end testing across all target platforms As the solo developer, I will focus on creating reliable automation systems that can operate without human intervention. The system will be able to automatically post content, create polls, collect responses, and use those responses to generate new content based on audience choices. | A fully automated interactive storytelling system capable of generating content, posting it to social media platforms, collecting audience responses through polls, and using those responses to direct narrative progression—all without human intervention. Complete with documentation and testing across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. | $2,500.00 | June 1, 2025 UTC | June 30, 2025 UTC |
3 | This milestone focuses on real-world deployment and analysis: Deployment of the complete Dreamscroll system on a VPS for a 30-day public demonstration Daily generation and publishing of interactive content across all target platforms Implementation of analytics tracking to measure audience engagement Performance optimization based on real-world feedback and metrics Documentation of results and creation of a public case study Final code refinements and stability improvements As the solo developer, I will manage the live deployment, monitor system performance, analyze engagement metrics, and document the results. I'll implement optimizations based on real-world performance and audience interaction patterns to improve the system throughout the 30-day run. | A 30-day live demonstration of Dreamscroll generating and publishing interactive storytelling content across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts, with complete documentation of audience engagement metrics and a public case study analyzing the effectiveness of AI-generated interactive content on social media platforms. | $2,500.00 | July 1, 2025 UTC | July 31, 2025 UTC |
What is the total amount requested (in USD)?
7500
Specify your team's long-term plans to maintain this software and upgrade it over time
As a solo developer, I plan to maintain Dreamscroll as an open-source project with updates as new AI models become available. I will update the video generation components as Livepeer enhances its AI pipelines. The system's modular design will allow for easy integration of new features and models, ensuring longevity and relevance in the rapidly evolving AI landscape.
Please describe (in words) your team's relevant experience, and why you think you are the right team to build this project. You can cite your team's prior experience in similar domains, doing similar dev work, individual team members' backgrounds, etc.
As the individual behind StarForge, which won first place at the Livepeer AI Video Hackathon, I have demonstrated expertise in working with Livepeer's AI video pipelines. My experience combines experience in AI-driven content generation, automated social media engagement, and interactive storytelling. I have specific expertise in LLM integration, social media automation, and agent-based architectures using frameworks like elizaOS.
Who is your target user group? How do you plan on getting your users to use this?
The target users are existing audiences on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts who enjoy interactive storytelling experiences. Rather than requiring users to adopt a new platform Dreamscroll meets audiences where they already are by publishing content to these established platforms. The interactive nature of the polls naturally encourages engagement and sharing, creating organic growth potential
