> **Tally has consistently rolled out key features and improvements that have enhanced the governance experience for Uniswap DAO.** These include:
> 
> - **UNI Staking Support:** Launched on August 16, 2024, allowing Uniswap DAO members to [stake UNI directly on Tally](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/uniswap/stake).
> - **Gasless Delegation:** Since May 2023, Tally has relayed delegation transactions for the Uniswap DAO via its funded budget, making delegation free for Uniswap DAO members.
> - **Import from Discourse & Snapshot:** Seamless import of proposals from Discourse or Snapshot with just a link, ensuring a smooth proposal drafting experience.
> - **Secure Voting Mechanisms:** Providing a reliable voting platform that empowers token holders to make decisions securely and transparently.
> - **Proposal Automation:** Automating the execution of approved proposals to simplify governance.
> - **Proposal Creation with Arbitrary Executables:** Proposals can be created with customizable executable actions, including a [custom “recipe” in Tally’s docs for chain deployment of Uniswap v3](https://docs.tally.xyz/knowledge-base/proposals/creating-proposals/custom-actions/chain-deployment-of-uniswap-v3).
> - **Collaborative Proposal Drafting:** Enabling multiple contributors to draft proposals together for a more inclusive governance process.
> - **No-Code Transfers:** Making fund transfers within the DAO simple and accessible to non-technical users.
> - **[Notifications](https://docs.tally.xyz/knowledge-base/navigating-the-tally-platform/notifications):** Keeping Uniswap DAO members informed with real-time email notifications on proposal voting windows.
> - **Gnosis Safe Integration:** Allowing for efficient, secure management of DAO assets.
> - **Wallet Support:** Native support for a wide range of wallets so DAO participation is accessible to all Uniswap DAO members.
> - [**Public API:**](https://www.notion.so/Proposals-1599632e110f41699eb5479778a6de2c?pvs=21) Enabling deeper integration with Uniswap’s ecosystem through Tally’s comprehensive public API.

We do not doubt the value that Tally brings to Uniswap and to all governance where the tool is used, but we want to understand if these proposed improvements are essential and justify the 500k expense, and even if the proposed improvements are tailor-made for Uniswap or if they are for general purposes, in which case they should not be exclusively funded by Uniswap.

> All great questions @drllau_LexDAO. The Foundation does fund new governance work, but Tally largely serves the DAO and delegates themselves. Delegates frequently ask for new features, and we try to prioritize them as possible and as resources allow.

> For contestability, the DAO can simply stop paying for it. The Foundation has funded numerous other tools in the past and continues to do so. Tally is not the only DAO tool in Uniswap.

On this point, we would like to ask a specific question. Does the Foundation currently fund Tally? In what amount and for what period of time? @eek637, can you please give us some details on this? If the answer is yes, we understand that there could be double funding if it receives funds from the Foundation and from the DAO.

> In my view, gasless voting through Tally’s relayer introduces a significant security risk. Relayers can censor or delay votes (including due to technical problems – faults, not frauds). While delegates can always resubmit their votes using on-chain transactions, this may require considerable diligence on the part of the voter, and if the DAO vote is contentious, it could lead to problematic situations.

This is important to us. Could you please give us some more details on this?
