1. What is your project and what problem does it solve? (max 100 words)

Storagestats is an efficient deal management and retrieval performance evaluation tool designed to process large-scale Filecoin deal data. Through an automated logic system, this tool optimizes the sampling, and retrieval processes of order data, providing key metrics that support data storage efficiency and node retrieval performance.

2. a) How is Filecoin used in this project?

Number	Grant Deliverable	Briefly describe how you will meet deliverable objectives	Timeframe (within 3 months)
1.	Data Extraction and Enhancement Module	Enhance the accuracy and timeliness of data extraction from the Glif data source, supporting incremental updates and anomaly filtering, while expanding to more Filecoin data sources to improve data diversity and integrity.	Month 1
2.	Dynamic Sampling and Stratified Logic Development	Develop dynamic sampling logic based on order importance weighting, adding stratified sampling functionality to prioritize retrieval of high-value orders. Implement distributed sample processing to improve the efficiency of data sampling and sorting, supporting datasets of millions of deals.	Month 1-2
3.	Visualization Performance Monitoring and Analysis Dashboard	Build an extensible dashboard that displays key metrics such as retrieval success rates, failure reason statistics, and node latency. Support real-time data refresh, and historical data trend analysis, and provide JSON/API export functionality for easy integration with other tools	Month 2-3
4.	User Experience and Community Integration Optimization	Integrate user feedback from the Filecoin+ community, enhancing usability through UI/UX adjustments. Introduce multilingual support (Chinese, English, Korean, etc.) to cater to global community needs, and provide simple tutorials and user manuals.	Month 3

4. Adoption, Reach, and Growth Strategies

Adoption Strategy:
• Promote within the Filecoin community by offering a free trial version to attract storage providers and developers.
• Integrate with Filecoin Slack and GitHub to gather user feedback and facilitate continuous iteration.
Coverage Strategy:
• Collaborate with well-known storage providers for case studies that demonstrate the system’s value in optimizing retrieval performance.
• Provide API interfaces for users, enabling integration with other Filecoin tools or platforms.
Growth Strategy:
• Introduce multilingual support (such as English, Chinese, Korean, etc.) to increase coverage of international users.
• Publish technical blogs and participate in Filecoin series events to showcase project results.
• Promote to enterprises in the data storage industry, particularly those dealing with high-value storage orders, such as AI dataset providers and data distribution platforms.
