Please describe your proposed solution.

Âtrium is an all-in-one, user-friendly front-end interface for the Cardano blockchain that serves as a one-stop solution for users to access various financial applications. By consolidating these features into a single, easy-to-use platform, Âtrium aims to lower the barriers to entry for new users while providing a seamless experience for existing users.

Our core guiding principles are:

1. Simplify the user experience for Cardano application
2. Build tools to encourage further decentralization on the networ
3. Connect the community and its applications in one easy-to-use interfac
4. Educate both new and existing users to empower the networ

We see Âtrium as the tool you recommend to new members of the network. The application you use to check in with your assets and with its community members. The place you come to learn more about Cardano. We see it as a home for Cardano.

Our dashboard allows users to connect via Eternl, Nami, or by pasting an ADA address / Adahandle. From there users are presented with a minimal overview of the contents of their wallet, with tokens and NFT values aggregated to provide estimates of their worth. Staking data is also provided. From the dashboard view you can drill down deeper into Cardano tooling. A wallet functionality allows users to send and receive. The NFT page displays all your assets, with top level data about the contents of your wallet. The same exists for tokens. A staking page shows users their current staking data, and also allows users to stake to other pools.

Every tile in the Âtrium interface comes with a button that links to a beautifully animated motion graphics explainer video. These videos will effortlessly explain basic Cardano concepts to users, ensuring that there are no areas for confusion across the interface. These videos will go into simpler topics like "how to stake", and lead to more complex topics like swapping.

How does your proposed solution address the challenge and what benefits will this bring to the Cardano ecosystem?

By placing our educational content right alongside each interactive item on Âtrium, this product will limit the barriers to entry, and new users will feel more confident in the decisions they choose to make with their assets. Âtrium is where you will send people when they ask you "What is Cardano?".

How do you intend to measure the success of your project?

User feedback we receive will be our source of information regarding the success of the educational content. We'll also analyze the amount of users we onboard.

Please describe your plans to share the outputs and results of your project?

Our videos will appear on YouTube and twitter, but most importantly, they will sit alongside each tile on our interface. Written content will also appear on Âtrium for those who prefer to read.

What is your capability to deliver your project with high levels of trust and accountability?

Our core team consists of multiple decades of front-end, back-end and full-stack experience, security experts and award winning designers with experience working for some of the largest most recognised brands in the world. Our founder Peyton, is the operator behind Bloom, one of the largest stake pools in the ecosystem responsible for minting the 8th block on the Cardano blockchain. All team members are Cardano community natives, with a love for the community and a united vision in building products that serve the ecosystem.

What are the main goals for the project and how will you validate if your approach is feasible?

The main goal is to guide new users through each element of the Âtrium interface, whilst educating them on advanced Cardano concepts. Our Founder Peyton has produced educational content for the Cardano community for years and has created a reputation for being a top source of information for learning about Cardano. Ben, Âtrium’s Co-founder, is an extremely talented motion graphic expert with 14+ years industry experience producing animations for some of the worlds largest brands, and even IOG / CF, and Emurgo. The combination of skills will provide Âtrium users with a broad knowledge base on all things Cardano, without jargon or unnecessary technical details.
