# What is Dework?

### Overview

Dework is platform for web3 teams to engage with internal & external contributors, pay contributors while boosting their reputation for work completed, discover how DAOs get work done and how to work with contributors.&#x20;

It allows all kinds of projects to work openly or privately, and have contributors participate through tasks either by application, open submissions or gated claiming.

### Integrations: Tell me more

Through wallet integrations like **MetaMask**, **Phantom** and **Hiro** (with more on the way), rewards for tasks and token distribution is very easy; especially with **Gnosis Safes** batch payments right from Dework.

A streamlined two-way sync with **Discord** ensures that your server is always kept up to date with what's happening across projects, and tasks are easily claimable or visible to the right Discord roles, synced right from your server.

Similarly, **GitHub** repo syncing and automations ensure your team is able to keep projects running while providing clarity and transparency on the progress across the team or community.

If you're using **Notion**, **Trello** or **GitHub** right now, you can also import directly into Dework to get started without losing a step and gain access to web3 native features built-in.
