How the House stays free.
Help is always free for people. The ones who get the value pay: projects that are helped, founders who want things built, chains and researchers who want to understand real use. Payment rails are not open yet, so every paid offer below is a request or a waitlist for now.
Seven ways the lights stay on
- ProjectsProject RoomsClaiming a portal is free. Projects can request a staffed Room: curators on their support desk, a report of uses they never marketed, and bridge introductions.Open
- ProjectsReward campaignsProjects reward real users verified by what they did. The House routes it and keeps a small platform fee.Open
- Power usersEngine ProA few answers a day stay free. Pro adds unlimited answers, deep dossiers and voice guidance for heavy users.Open
- Founders and chainsWorkshop buildsWe build it for you: fixed-price apps through Deployr, custom builds by quote, and bounties projects fund.Open
- Projects and partnersHub room sponsorshipsSponsor a room in the physical House and its digital twin, with your support desk staffed by our curators.Open
- Chains and researchersData and researchThe open data stays free. Custom, aggregated research on how web3 is actually used, for chains, VCs and researchers.Open
- Anyone who wants toSupporter membershipOptional. Early episodes, priority help, a badge and a name on the wall. Never required for help.Open
What we will never do
- Charge people for help.
- Promise income, returns, tokens or airdrops.
- Sell personal data. Research is aggregated only.
- Hide a better answer because someone paid.
If the House ever has to choose between a sponsor and a person who needs help, the person wins.
