Project Abstract

Modern Bureaucracy brings the first AI-assisted compliance infrastructure to the Polkadot ecosystem, solving the fundamental problem that complex bureaucratic procedures exclude honest participants while advantaging those with resources for administrative compliance. We provide a translation layer between natural language and blockchain operations through local AI assistance, maintaining cryptographic proof of every interaction for regulatory audit requirements.

Our solution combines a specialized Substrate parachain with MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers to enable AI-guided workflows. Building upon our existing proof-of-concept (Human Context Protocol with 3 pallets), this grant will deliver the production-ready Modern Bureaucracy parachain featuring pallet-pki, pallet-crypto-trails, and pallet-compliance. The system will launch with a treasury proposal workflow optimized for AI assistance, demonstrating how honest teams can achieve professional compliance without expensive consultants, while maintaining end-to-end encryption and decentralized coordination.
