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
Custom trading bots and automation
Smart order routing strategies
Position management utilities
Risk management dashboards
Analytics dashboards and data products
Trading signal services
On-chain data aggregation
Performance tracking tools
Wallets that route through Based
On-chain automation layers
Custom notification systems
API integrations and middleware
Why Build on Based
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.
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.
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
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.
