Description

PayWarp transforms how remote teams and individuals manage finances by combining automated budgeting, payroll processing, and expense tracking into a single gasless experience on Mantle L2. The platform addresses three core pain points:

  1. VALUE EROSION: Inflation and idle funds destroy purchasing power, especially in emerging markets

  2. FRAGMENTATION: Teams juggle 5+ tools (payroll, budgeting, expenses, banking) with manual reconciliation

  3. COMPLEXITY: Crypto barriers (gas fees, seed phrases, wallet management) exclude mainstream users

CORE FEATURES:

Bucket System:

  • Billings: Expense tracking with OCR (Gemini AI/Tesseract.js), auto-fills to 100% from surplus

  • Savings: Goal-based allocations with milestone tracking and 1% bonus APY on completion

  • Growth: High-yield RWA vaults with auto-compounding, minimum 20% allocation rule

  • Instant: Payroll engine with CSV uploads, team management, and automated Chainlink cron payouts

  • Spendable: Connected wallet balance for liquid transfers and withdrawals

Smart Automation:

  • Custom split percentages (default 20/30/20/20/10, adjustable via sliders)

  • Rule enforcement (e.g., surplus from Billings overflows to Growth)

  • Session key approvals for recurring transactions (capped spending limits)

  • Gasless transactions via Biconomy Paymaster sponsorship

RWA Integration:

  • Connects to Ondo Finance tokenized T-bills and equity vaults (simulated for testnet MVP)

  • Real-time yield visualization through animated liquid fills and rising bubbles

  • 8-12% APY projections based on Mantle RWA ecosystem rates

User Experience:

  • Social login via Particle Network (Google/email/phone) creates embedded smart accounts

  • No seed phrases, no gas fees, no wallet popups after initial connection

  • Framer Motion animations: liquid SVG bucket fills, particle.js yield bubbles, confetti on milestones

  • Drag-and-drop transfers between buckets with gesture-based UI

  • NGN/USD currency toggle with Chainlink price feeds

Payroll Features:

  • CSV upload or manual team entry (wallet addresses or email invites)

  • Salary scheduling with automated payouts on specific dates

  • Batch processing for gas efficiency

  • Provisional team member system (pending wallet verification)

Expense Management:

  • OCR receipt scanning with AI extraction (amount, date, merchant, category)

  • Manual entry fallback with form validation

  • Blockchain logging for immutable audit trails

  • Category-based tracking and reporting

Warp History:

  • Timeline view with monthly/yearly filters

  • Animated transaction replay ("rewind" effect with chronological bubble pops)

  • Event syncing via wagmi getLogs for deposit/payout/split events

2025 Wrapped Carousel:

  • Full-screen auto-advancing slides (8 panels, 5s each)

  • Metrics: Total volume, inflow vs outflow, top assets, top 5 counterparties, peak activity day

  • Biggest transaction spotlight with block explorer link

  • Global percentile ranking and financial archetype assignment ("The Balancer", "The Saver", etc.)

  • Social sharing (X post generation) and PNG export

  • Mantle-branded gradients (purple-black theme)

Key Milestones

Core Features/Integrations

KPIs/Targets

Dependencies/Risks

Q1 2026

MVP Launch (Testnet); Beta program; Core UX polish

Gasless auto-splits; Social login (Particle); Bridging (ETH/ERC-20 via Mantle Bridge); Bucket rules + animations; Basic payroll/expenses

500+ beta users; 80% retention; 5K txs; $100K testnet TVL

Hackathon feedback; Beta waitlist. Risk: User onboarding bugs – Mitigate: A/B test social login flows.

Q2 2026

Premium Rollout; Mainnet Migration; Fiat Integration

Mantle mainnet launch; Fiat on-ramps (Paystack NGN/USD); Premium tier (ad-free, advanced splits, early Wrapped access)

2K active users; $500K TVL; Premium conversion: 20%; Partnerships (Ondo RWAs)

Testnet stability; Regulatory checks (NGN ramps). Risk: Migration downtime – Mitigate: Phased rollout + audits.

Q3 2026

AI Enhancements; Expansion

AI-powered analysis (e.g., yield forecasts); "Chat with data" (Gemini/Tesseract toggle for expenses + bucket insights); Cross-chain support (e.g., ETH/Base bridges)

5K users; $2M TVL; 50% engagement on AI features; App store listings

Mainnet data for AI training; Chain integrations. Risk: AI accuracy – Mitigate: Beta test with mock data.

Q4 2026

Token Launch; Ecosystem Growth

$PWARP token launch (utility: governance, yield boosts, premium unlocks); Community airdrops; Full Wrapped carousel (with archetypes)

10K users; $5M TVL; Token listing on DEXs; 30% airdrop claims

Audits; Tokenomics design. Risk: Market volatility – Mitigate: Staged vesting + liquidity pools.

2027+ (Scale & Innovate)

Advanced AI; Global Expansion

AI-powered recaps (e.g., personalized Wrapped variants); Full cross-chain (multi-L2/L1); Enterprise payroll (team invites); ML for expense categorization

50K+ users; $20M+ TVL; Global partnerships (e.g., African fintechs); 90% user satisfaction

Token adoption; Regulatory evolution. Risk: Competition – Mitigate: Community governance + IPFS for data.
