What a month November was for us at Karma! We hit some major milestones, kicking things off with the launch of a brand-new version of the Karma website. With this refresh, we're clearly communicating our evolution. Karma has grown beyond accountability and impact measurement into a full-stack funding solution for the Web3 ecosystem. (And yes, we've dropped "GAP" from the name. Karma GAP is now simply Karma.) We also rolled out some cool AI-assisted features and made performance improvements across the board so things run so much quicker now! Karma has never been better.

We also took the team on the road to Devconnect in Buenos Aires. It was an awesome chance to soak up the incredible energy of the Ethereum builders and enjoy that vibrant city. All in all, November felt like a massive leap forward as we build serious momentum heading into 2026.
Grant Management:
We've made some major updates to make things easier for everyone. Now, if an application gets rejected, the applicant can actually resubmit it with improvements making the process much smoother! Plus, milestone reviewers can now directly mark grants as completed, which really speeds up the whole approval process. Thanks to the feedback from the community, we've also added the ability to reverse a grant completion and made the status updates much clearer, giving reviewers better control and transparency. And for our staff, we introduced some handy new tools for merging projects and managing permissions more efficiently, which is a common request from our community members.
AI Integration:
We've made some great strides on the AI front. We already had AI assistance helping grantees improve their applications to meet program requirements. Now, we've added internal AI evaluation tools that funding program managers can configure for their own review process, making evaluations more consistent and thorough.
Content & Customization:
We've officially launched markdown support for both project profiles and grant applications, which means you can now make your text much richer with both editing and preview features!
Also, be sure to check out the new Case Studies section on our website as we've filled it with inspiring success stories and testimonials from happy clients. And for our Whitelabel partners, we've made things even better by adding customizable Success Pages and "What Happens Next" sections so you can really personalize the user experience. Overall we are building the best platform for funders in web3 to run the most effective programs at scale and speed.
Data & Analytics:
We made some big improvements to our data this month! To help everyone understand how the platform is being used, we can now export monthly user counts and filter data by specific projects. For even more accurate metrics, we started tracking unique users per program and counting transactions across different chains. Plus, we've added new CSV download options, making it easier for you to get and analyze the data you need. Running a successful funding program based on real time data has never been easier.
As mentioned earlier we launched a comprehensive homepage redesign of Karma V2 featuring improved navigation and a new hero section that better communicates our value proposition. Visual updates included a revamped Navbar, dialogs, and typography for a more consistent look and feel across the platform. We significantly improved the mobile experience with better menu handling and responsive dialogs. On the "Browse Applications" page, we added infinite scroll and status filters for smoother navigation and easier discovery of relevant applications. Hands down, the Karma website has never looked or felt better.
We really focused on making things faster this month! We fine-tuned important parts like the Project Roadmap and Milestones List, and cleaned up our backend queries. This means everything should load quicker now. On the technical side, we boosted our infrastructure by adding better testing (E2E and unit tests), improving our deployment process (CI/CD), and optimizing our DB queries. Plus, we took care of essential security updates and dependency upgrades to keep the whole platform running smoothly and safely.
Conclusion
Overall this was an amazing month full of growth and progress for the Karma app and website, team, and community. We are looking forward to shipping even more improvements in 2026.
