DAO ops teams regularly initiate transactions like approvals, votes, recurring payouts, yield deposits/withdrawals, and trades through a Gnosis Safe (Safe DAO) but are delayed days or weeks by getting enough owners to “opt-in” and sign the transaction. This is the #1 problem we hear about from DAO ops teams. 🥇

The Optimistic Transaction app switches DAOs to an “opt out” model for low-risk transactions. Anyone on the multi-sig can propose a tx, which can be vetoed during a delay period (usually 24hrs), and then is executed automatically.

It works using the [optimistic-modifer](https://github.com/PaymagicXYZ/optimistic-modifier) which we’ve developed from a fork of the [Zodiac delay-modifier](https://github.com/gnosis/zodiac-modifier-delay) and Gelato service to execute the tx automatically. Spending limits and scope guards can be used to reduce the risk of a rogue transaction getting executed and each DAO ops team can tune the available transactions to the needs of the DAO. This app would speed up the operating speed of DAOs considerably! 🏎️💨

_Web3 Pitches (W3P) are short product write-ups that describe an emerging problem or opportunity in the Web3 space and proposes a minimal-viable solution that could be tested and iterated with users. The pitches are presented in_ [_screenshot essay form_](https://www.screenshotessays.com/)_, which is meant to be short enough to be consumed on one page of a mobile screen. :-)_
