Before you applyBuild on Base; deployment to Base mainnet "gives you a leg up" but early prototypes and testnet deployments are considered.

Build anything on Base (prototypes welcome). No minimum project size required. Prototyping counts! Early-stage projects and experiments are explicitly encouraged. Perfect For: First-time Base builders learning the ecosystem; Developers experimenting with new ideas; Weekend projects and hackathon submissions; Educational content creation

When

Retroactive: this rewards work you have already shipped rather than a proposal, so there is nothing to apply for up front.

What Base funds

Funds builders on Base at every stage, with a strong bias toward rewarding shipped work: weekly activity-based rewards for experiments, fast retroactive ETH grants for live projects, and a cohort-based founder track for teams going full-time.
