About Aragon

Aragon is an open-source project building infrastructure for decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs). Founded in 2017 by Luis Cuende and Jorge Izquierdo, Aragon provides tools for creating and managing DAOs including token-based voting, dispute resolution, and governance frameworks. Aragon Court (later Aragon Protocol) offered a decentralized dispute resolution system where jurors stake ANT to arbitrate DAO conflicts. The Aragon OSx modular architecture allows DAOs to install plugins for custom governance, treasury management, and community coordination. ANT is used for Aragon Network governance, staking in court systems, and accessing platform services. Hundreds of DAOs including DeFi protocols, investment clubs, and community organizations use Aragon.
