+
+### Key Investigators
+
+* Heberto Mayorquin
+
+Willing to work with anyone interested in benchmarks, willing to offer guidance or learn from someone else.
+
+## Project Description
+Some of the standard packages on the ecosystem use [air-speed velocity t]( https://github.com/airspeed-velocity/asv)o benchmark the package across time. Here are two examples:
+
+* [scikit-learn](https://scikit-learn.org/scikit-learn-benchmarks/)
+* [scipy](https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/dev/contributor/benchmarking.html)
+
+The idea is simple, implement the same for SpikeInterface.
+
+### Background
+
+
+### Objectives
+
+- Create a repository with benchmarks and documentation
+
+### Approach and Plan
+
+
+
+Fill in with approach and project plan
+
+ * [ ] - Discuss with main mantainers and users what are common functionalities that are expected to last in time (i.e. saving data and loading data).
+ * [ ] Implement the benchmark for at least one function
+ * [ ] Add another function
+ * [ ] Document and 
+
+### Progress
+
+Fill in with tentative milestones (or leave blacnk for later):
+
+ * [ ] Milestone 1
+ * [ ] Milestone 2
+ * [ ] Make PR to SpikeInterface
+
+### Next Steps (optional)
+
+Fill in with next steps
