Gleyo Update: Moving Faster, Building With User Feedback 
Since my last update, we’ve been moving faster than expected in improving Gleyo’s overall experience.
Over the past week, we’ve spoken with potential communities that could use Gleyo and gathered feedback on the features they consider essential. Rather than letting that feedback sit on a list, we moved quickly to implement the requested improvements.
Building with feedback
These conversations have helped us better understand what communities need to run their programs on Gleyo. We’ve used that feedback to prioritize improvements and ship changes faster.
We’ve also been speaking directly with existing Gleyo users. Some have already complimented the new UI/UX, particularly the cleaner, iPhone-inspired design, crisp borders, and more polished feel across the platform.
It’s encouraging to see users notice these improvements, but we want to make sure the experience works as well as it looks.
71 quest templates added
We’ve added 71 quest templates spanning six categories: Zcash, social, education, creative, events and developer tasks.
Admins have different needs depending on the type of community program they’re running. These templates give them more options and let them start with an existing template instead of creating every quest from scratch.
Whether an admin is organizing educational activities, social campaigns, creative challenges, or developer-focused tasks, the goal is to make setting up a program faster and easier.
Fixing bugs from real-world usage
Alongside the UX improvements, we’ve fixed most of the bugs experienced during the Proof of Privacy campaign and the Zcash Ghana residency.
These programs gave us valuable insight into how Gleyo performs when real communities use it. We’ve been using what we learned to improve the platform while working on the overall user experience.
The goal isn’t just to make Gleyo look better. It’s to make it more reliable for the communities running their programs on it.
Testing before rollout
We’ve put together a small group of testers to work through the new features before they reach everyone.
The goal is to catch bugs early, test real workflows, and identify issues we might miss during development. A regional community lead is also participating in the testing, giving us another perspective beyond our internal team.
This is an important step toward making Gleyo more reliable and easier for communities to use independently.
What’s next
For the rest of October, our focus is on:
-
Testing the core product and newly added improvements.
-
Identifying and fixing remaining bugs before wider rollout.
-
Gathering feedback from testers and incorporating it into the product.
-
Continuing to improve the overall experience for communities and their members.
We’re moving faster than expected, but we want to make sure the improvements are tested properly before rolling them out more widely.
Still early.
Still building.
