What is a Decentralized Dispute Resolution System (DDRS)?

DDRS is a blockchain-based platform designed to facilitate secure transactions, AI-assisted transaction negotiation flows, and smart contract integration. It ensures transparency, trust, and efficiency in transactions between Ordering Parties and Service Providers.

Roles and Responsibilities

The DDRS system operates with three main roles:

  1. Ordering Party: Responsible for initiating transactions, defining terms of service, and approving or disputing deliverables.
  2. Service Provider: Responsible for accepting agreements, delivering services as defined, and addressing disputes if they arise.
  3. DDRS Juror: Responsible for reviewing cases and evidence provided by Ordering Parties and Service Providers, and making fair judgements to resolve disputes between parties.

What’s in DDRS Module 1?

  • AI-Assisted Transaction Creation Flow: Use the AI Transaction Assistant to structure and negotiate transaction terms, discuss with the other party through comments function, set up and sign the transaction.
  • Specification of Business Transaction Terms: This includes setting up proper acceptance criteria for the services, deadlines, and well-structured service descriptions.
  • Negotiation with the Other Party: Go through the initial version of the transaction terms and negotiate the terms with DDRS’s Negotiation Flow. You can use built-in comments function to communicate with the Other Party within the application.
  • Payment & Confirmation of Service Delivery: Pay for the transaction and confirm the Service Delivery (disputes will be available in Module 2).
  • Beta Leaderboard: Track your contributions, earn points, and win rewards.

How to Get Started?

VAIOT DDRS Beta Test: How to Get Started

STEP 1: Connect Your Wallet and Set up an Account

Setting Up the Account

To access DDRS, the first step is to connect your wallet.

  • Connect Your Wallet: Click “Connect Wallet” on the login screen to link your wallet and create your account.
  • Access the Dashboard: Once connected, you can view and manage your transactions, including active and completed ones, with progress summaries.
  • Test “My Account” Section: Update your avatar, username, or email to personalize your account.

Tip: Revisit your dashboard as you begin testing transactions to ensure statuses and details are displayed correctly.

STEP 2: Test Core Features

➡️ AI Transaction Assistant

Throughout the entire app testing process, you can benefit from the support of our AI Transaction Assistant. The Assistant appears on the right-hand side of the screen — its window is minimised when you are not using the chat for better and more comfortable use of the application.

Tip: Try out different prompts to test the Assistant’s ability to provide relevant and practical suggestions.

➡️ Creating a New Transaction

1. Transaction Creation

Start a transaction with an Ordering Party or a Service Provider, by clicking on the ‘New transaction’ button in the header.

2. Adding the Other Party

  • Enter the wallet address of the person you are entering into the transaction with.
  • Once entered, the platform will automatically notify the other party that a new transaction has been initiated.

A) Service Ordering Path

  1. Choose the service category that best matches your requirements.
  2. Provide Detailed Service Requirements

Once the category is selected, the next step is to outline the specifics of the service.

  • Title: Provide a concise title for the service (e.g., “Website Redesign Project”).
  • Description: Describe your requirements in detail, including scope, deliverables, and any specific expectations.
  • Acceptance Criteria: Define clear criteria that the completed service must meet to be accepted (e.g., “Responsive website with three pages and SEO optimization”).
  • Delivery Date: Set a realistic deadline for the service to be completed.
  • Price: Specify the agreed-upon price for the service.

Pro Tip: Use the AI Transaction Assistant to refine your requirements, create detailed acceptance criteria, and ensure clarity in your terms.

3. Verify and Share the Transaction

Review all details to ensure the title, description, criteria, delivery date, and price are accurate.

Share the transaction:
- Provide the other party with the transaction link directly.
- Alternatively, use the app’s built-in email functionality to send the contract.

Once you’ve shared the transaction, you can monitor its status in the Dashboard. The Service Provider will now review and respond to your terms.

B) Service Provider’s Path

Accept or Negotiate Terms
Check the terms and conditions of the transaction shared with you by the Ordering Party. If it suits you, accept them and start the transaction. If you want to propose different terms, start negotiating.

➡️ Negotiating Contract Terms

How to Negotiate

  1. Click the “Negotiate” button under any part of the Order.
  2. Propose edits to the following aspects:
  • Service Description
  • Acceptance Criteria
  • Ownership of Work Product
  • Deadline
  • Price of the Service

Use the comments/chat functionality to discuss proposed changes with the Ordering Party.

As an Ordering Party, you can:

  • Accept the Service Provider’s proposed changes.
  • Negotiate further by counter-proposing adjustments to specific terms.

Pro Tip: Leverage the AI Assistant to draft professional proposals, refine negotiation language, and suggest mutually beneficial solutions.

➡️ Finalizing the Agreement

Once all terms are agreed upon:

  • The Ordering Party and Service Provider confirm the finalized contract.
  • Both Parties have to sign a blockchain transaction. In Module 2 Ordering Party will have to provide a deposit for the payment into the escrow smart contract here.
  • Once signed and paid the transaction moves to the “In Progress” state.
  • The Service Provider can now begin delivering the service.

➡️ Confirmation of Service Completion and Payment

Once the Service Provider has completed the work and marked the transaction as “Delivered”, the Ordering Party can:

  1. Review the delivered work to ensure it meets the agreed-upon Acceptance Criteria.
  2. If satisfied, mark the service as “Completed” and the system will automatically release the payment (automatic release of funds from escrow smart contract will be available in Module 2)

Note: Beginning from Module 2 payments will be securely held in escrow and only released upon the Ordering Party’s confirmation. If the Ordering Party will not take an action in a set time frame the funds will be released automatically. The Ordering Party can either accept the service delivered or open a dispute (available in Module 2).

Using Test Tokens

For beta testing purposes, use the provided test tokens to simulate payments. Follow the instructions below to acquire and use them effectively.

Connecting MetaMask to the Sepolia Testnet

We highly recommend using MetaMask as your primary crypto wallet during beta testing.

To set up MetaMask:

  1. Click on the network icon in the upper left and select “Show Test Networks”.
  2. Choose “Sepolia” from the list. This will connect you to the test network.
  3. You should now see “Sepolia Testnet” displayed within MetaMask.

Acquiring Test Tokens (Sepolia Test ETH)

With your wallet connected to the Sepolia testnet, you now need to acquire some Sepolia test ETH tokens. There are two recommended faucets for getting Sepolia test ETH:

IMPORTANT: Please note that both of these faucets require a minimum balance of 0.001 ETH on the Ethereum Mainnet to prevent abuse.

If you don’t have enough ETH on the mainnet, you can use a PoW faucet instead to mine the test ETH through proof of work. This allows you to acquire test tokens without maintaining a mainnet balance.

Connect your wallet and request test tokens. The tokens will be deposited into your wallet immediately.

Option 2: You can use Polygon Amoy Testnet

Instructions: Get Amoy

Feel free to reach out to our support team if you have any trouble getting set up.

STEP 3: Report Bugs and Suggestions

When you encounter a bug or have a suggestion while testing the DDRS, visit our Jira portal: https://vaiot.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/7

Here is a step-by-step guide on how to report bugs or make suggestions:

  1. Sign in or create a new account if you don’t have one. To do this just click on the top right corner and provide your email.
  2. Choose between “Development Suggestions” or “Report a bug.”

3. Provide a clear and detailed description of the issue or suggestion, including steps to reproduce if applicable. Submit your report and repeat the process for additional bugs or suggestions.
