Score: 5.0/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 3, Documentation: 3, Utility: 5)

Piecely is a content marketplace that uses dominant assurance contracts, a mechanism from mechanism design, to allow creators to monetize content by securing funding commitments before creation. It's interesting because it applies a novel economic model (common in public goods funding) to solve the 'cold start' problem for digital content creators.

Target audience: content-creators
