About PRUEBA
PRUEBA — short for Proof of Recognized Use, Evidence-Based Attestation — gives communities a way to keep permanent, independently verifiable proof of their gatherings, decisions, and impact. We use the tools communities already have (WhatsApp, Telegram), in the languages they already speak, without ever asking anyone to touch a crypto wallet. Records live on Base via the Ethereum Attestation Service; metadata on IPFS.
How it came together
PRUEBA was incubated through AIFS (All In For Sport), a global alliance of women-and-girls sport-for-development organisations and the funders, stewards, and technologists who back them, in collaboration with SuperBenefit. AIFS exists to shift power and resources toward grassroots women-and-girls sport — letting communities own their data, governance, and funding relationships.
SuperBenefit describes itself as "a node in the regenerative ecosystem, harnessing web3 and AI to shift power and to grow new systems of coordination — open source, peer-to-peer, built to be forked." That ethos shapes how PRUEBA is built: the schemas are public, the code is open source, and any community or developer can fork what we've made.
The first pilot — Sarreya Sport
Sarreya Sport is a women's football collective in Hargeisa, Somaliland, running training and tournaments since 2015. Sarreya is the first community piloting PRUEBA — capturing every session, every decision, every milestone as a permanent record they own and control. The records become evidence Sarreya can use with funders, partners, and the wider community of women and girls in sport across East Africa.
Get involved
If you run a community group anywhere in the world and you'd like to explore using PRUEBA — to make your sessions, decisions, or impact permanently provable — reach out. We're onboarding pilot communities slowly so we can learn alongside each one.
