Open Call proposals fall into two categories. '''Improvement proposals''' take the current Prototype 1 model as a given and propose enhancements: a better formula for distributing [[Gov/en/Portal:Economy/Cash-Rewards|Rewards]] (no guarantee*), a new mechanism for onboarding [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Innovations:User Groups|User Groups]], an improved arbitration process. '''Substitution proposals''' challenge one or more elements of Prototype 1 and propose replacements: an alternative [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Innovations:Bonding Curve|bonding curve]] formula, a different governance structure, a new approach to Commission calculation. Proposals that entirely abandon the WikiDeal model are out of scope; the Open Call is about improving and diversifying, not about starting over.

A valid proposal must specify: the exact change proposed; the costs of implementing it; the expected benefits and the evidence base for those expectations; compatibility with the membership-based entry system (memberships must remain in all proposals); the proposer's own capacity to contribute to implementation; and the full AI transparency disclosure if any AI tools were used. Proposals lacking these elements are returned for completion before formal evaluation.

Each periodic evaluation combines a public vote (accessible to all WikiDeal membership holders) with a structured expert panel review. The expert panel includes platform cooperative specialists, legal scholars, economists familiar with commons governance, and at least one representative from the Living Labs research community. The panel's role is not to override the public vote but to ensure that winning proposals are technically feasible and legally compliant.

Rewards can combine several complementary forms: direct cash payments, [[Gov/en/Portal:Economy/Cash-Rewards|Rewards]] (no guarantee*), which represent a conditional claim on future subscription revenue, and [[Gov/en/Portal:Economy/Miles-Credits|Miles Credits]], which can be exchanged for services within the WikiDeal ecosystem. See [[Gov/en/Portal:Economy/Rewards-Explained|Rewards Explained]] for the full picture. Winning proposals in an evaluation cycle are intended to share a prize pool of '''CHF 10,000 in cash''' and '''1,000,000 WikiDeal memberships'''. There may be multiple winners in a cycle, a main prize and a complementary prize, to recognise proposals that work well together. The Open Call is designed to remain genuinely community-driven, with evaluation guided by public vote and independent expert review.
