Allocator Application Status Update - Q2 2025

[Kevin-FF-USA]

The goal of this post is to share status updates on the current applications from Organizations wishing to serve as Allocators in the Fil+ program.

The new Experimental Allocator Pathway is now live. The experimental pathway is a new way for teams actively developing in the ecosystem to apply for DataCap specifically to experiment, test, and validate their solutions. Organizations who had submitted as RFA and developing pathways, but required additional support or testing parameters are encouraged to apply.
Here is a short 5m explainer video about the pathway -> https://youtu.be/oXFxrt4Bnxo
For details about this pathway, please check out the Proposal

🔗 How to Apply:

1. Visit the Experimental Meta Allocator site for full details.
2. Submit your application via the linked Google Form.
3. You'll receive a KYC verification link and GitHub issue creation automatically after applying.

Manual

The following organizations have applied to become Manual pathways. Since there is already an existing pool of Allocators providing this service and overhead in maintaining these existing 60+ Organizations is high, these Organizations have been directed to demonstrate they can bring a client through the DataCap process while maintaining the full standards (SPARK Retrieval, Location, Diligence, etc) from their applications. Any organization that has completed this process will be reviewed against their ability to meet and maintain the standards of existing Allocators and their own Applications.
