ZADAO Stats

Track community engagement and platform activity for Zero Authority DAO directly from Discord and Telegram. The /zadao command opens an interactive menu where anyone can pull up stats for the last 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days.

/zadao is a stats viewer, not an alert. It works in groups and DMs β€” anyone can use it, no admin permission needed.


What You Can See

Section
What it shows

πŸ“Š Full Report

The complete picture β€” community activity, platform stats, and the Top Contributors leaderboard, all in one view

πŸ‘₯ Community

Discord and Telegram member counts, net growth, active users, repeat users, total messages

πŸ₯‡ Top Contributors

Top 10 by quality-weighted contribution score (quality + answers + helping newcomers + mod-weighted reactions + consistency), each with a one-line "why" β€” combined, or split by Discord / Telegram. See below.

πŸ† Top Members

Top 10 most active by raw message count in the chosen window β€” combined, or split by Discord / Telegram

πŸš€ Platform

ZADAO platform metrics β€” new signups, bounties launched, submissions made, gigs created, new partners, platform volume (TVE)

Every section is scoped to a time window you choose: last 24h, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days.


How "Active" and "Repeat" Are Counted

Term
Definition

Active user

Sent at least 1 message in the chosen window

Repeat user

Was active on at least 2 different days in the window β€” a stronger engagement signal

Net growth

Members today minus members at the window start (positive = grew, negative = lost)


Use it on Telegram

  1. Open the menu:

    • Type /zadao in any chat (group or DM).

  2. Pick a section:

    • Full Report Β· Community Β· Top Contributors Β· Top Members Β· Platform Stats

  3. Pick a time window:

    • 24h Β· 3 days Β· 7 days Β· 30 days

  4. (Top Contributors / Top Members only) Pick a leaderboard:

    • Combined (best of both platforms) Β· Discord-only Β· Telegram-only

  5. Read the result. Use the Back to Menu button to ask another question without retyping /zadao.


Use it on Discord

  1. Open the menu:

    • Type /zadao (the response is ephemeral β€” only you see it).

  2. Pick a section, then a window using the buttons.

  3. Result is shown in an embed with a Back to Menu button to keep exploring.

The same data is also available conversationally β€” just ask Nova:

"Who are the top 5 active members in Discord this week?"


πŸ₯‡ Top Contributors β€” the quality score

The Top Contributors leaderboard (and the weekly recap) ranks members by a contribution score, not raw message count β€” so simply posting a lot doesn't put you on top. Each member's score combines:

Signal
What it rewards

Message quality

Substantive, helpful, on-topic messages (rated by Nova) β€” spam and filler score 0

Answering questions

Actually answering questions other members ask

Helping newcomers

Welcoming and guiding people who recently joined

Reactions received

Reactions on your messages β€” moderator/admin reactions are weighted highest

Consistency

Showing up across multiple days, not just one burst

Each member also gets a one-line "why" next to their score, e.g. answered 7 Qs Β· helped 3 newcomers Β· 14 react pts Β· active 6/7d. Daily caps keep any single long post or one busy day from dominating.

Top Contributors (quality score) and Top Members (raw message count) are both available in the /zadao menu, so you can compare who's most helpful against who's most active. The weekly recap headlines Top Contributors.


Weekly Auto-Recap

Every Monday at 09:00 UTC, Nova posts a full weekly recap to the configured ZADAO Discord channel and Telegram chat. The recap covers the previous 7 days: community activity, platform stats, and the πŸ† Top Contributors leaderboard (with a "Most active by volume" footnote for the raw-count view).

Example recap topics: 47 new Discord members, top contributors of the week (who answered questions, helped newcomers, earned mod reactions), 12 new ZADAO signups, 8 bounties launched, 3 new partners, $4.2K platform volume.


Privacy Note

To compute community stats, Nova logs message metadata β€” timestamp, sender username, and character count β€” plus reactions (which message, who reacted, whether they're a mod). To score contribution quality, message text is stored temporarily and is automatically deleted after 14 days; only the resulting scores and counts are kept long-term. Message-metadata records older than 365 days are automatically deleted.


This command is currently scoped to the official ZADAO Discord server and Telegram group. If you'd like the same tracking for another community, reach out β€” generalizing it is a small additional setup.
