About
Kronosapiens Labs is a technology consultancy led by Daniel Kronovet.
We are interested in the future of technology as it relates to resource management and social choice, as well as in more abstract questions of representation and measurement. We draw influence from game design, economics, cybernetics, information theory, and political philosophy.
Our most significant in-house project is Chore Wheel, a suite of governance tools for coliving. This project has received grant funding from Gitcoin and is under active development.
Our main external client is Colony, where we contribute to the design and implementation of their future-of-work platform. We specifically led the development of Budget Box, a public goods funding mechanism, and Coin Machine, a mechanism for fair and fun token sales.
We are enthusiastic, creative, and resourceful. Please reach out with potential projects or collaborations.
