# Builder-on-Builder Program

The Builder-on-Builder Program enables external teams and developers to build directly on top of Based infrastructure -- creating a composable sub-ecosystem within Hyperliquid.

Rather than building core trading infrastructure from scratch, builders can plug into Based's existing stack and focus on what they do best: building products that serve traders.

## What You Can Build

  {% endtabs %}

## Why Build on Based

{% columns %}
{% column %}
**Skip the infrastructure work**

Core UI, wallet integration, and order routing are already built. Start from a working foundation instead of from zero.

**Access an existing user base**

Tap into Based's active trader community from day one, rather than bootstrapping users on your own.

**Aligned revenue model**

Earn through builder fees and affiliate incentives -- up to 76% of affiliate fees from trading volume you generate.
{% endcolumn %}

{% column %}
**Faster time to market**

Launch and iterate quickly without managing infrastructure, security, or exchange connectivity.

**Ecosystem network effects**

Benefit from an integrated ecosystem where tools, bots, and strategies complement each other.
{% endcolumn %}
{% endcolumns %}

## The Vision

Just as protocols build on blockchains, the Builder-on-Builder Program enables teams to build on applications. This creates a new layer of app-native ecosystems -- where specialized tools and strategies thrive on top of an established trading platform.

The goal is to establish a composable builder ecosystem on Hyperliquid, where each new integration strengthens the network for everyone.

## Who This Is For

* Trading tool and bot developers
* Quantitative and strategy teams
* Smart contract engineers
* Product builders with UI/UX ideas
* Developers building utilities for Hyperliquid traders

## Get Involved

{% hint style="info" %}
We are looking for **partnership and integration opportunities**, not hiring builders or issuing grants.

**If you already have an application with users** or a dApp that is currently running, you can integrate Based into your platform to earn affiliate fees from users trading through Based.

**If you are building something new** (e.g., a Telegram bot or analytics tool) and want to use Based as the backend trading layer, we'd like to hear from you as well.

Reach out to the team [here](/docs/others/contact-us.md) to start a conversation.
