USE
Products consume real compute and bring real users.
Helix Labs · The creation strand
The app store for the AI-native era.
Helix Labs is the network's creation engine — an incubator that turns ideas into shipping products, a storefront that puts them in front of real users, and an incentive layer that rewards every builder in HLX. Build on the compute, distribute through the network, and own a share of what you create.
One API · 100+ models
Subsidized compute
Distribution on Base
Earn in HLX
Most networks rent demand from an outside market. Helix grows its own. Every product shipped through Labs is a consumer of compute and an entry point for new users — so creation and compute feed each other, and the loop accelerates itself.
That's why Labs isn't a side program. It's the demand engine that makes the whole network turn — and the reason a builder here isn't just a tenant, but a participant who shares in the network's growth.
The ecosystem
An app store, built on the network
Discover what builders ship on Helix — AI-native products that run on aggregated compute and earn as they're used. Curated, distributed, and rewarded by the network.

From idea to ownership
A complete pipeline — and a stake at the end
Every stage removes one of the three walls a creator hits alone: compute cost, distribution, and reward. Labs turns each into infrastructure the network provides.
01 · BUILD
Tools & templates
A vibe-coding toolchain and starters wired to Helix Compute — idea to working prototype, fast.
02 · FUEL
Compute subsidies
Credits so cost never stops a good idea at its most fragile stage.
03 · ACCELERATE
Mentors & resources
Accelerator programs and an ecosystem network to move from prototype to mature product.
04 · DISTRIBUTE
Reach & cold start
In-network traffic plus Base's distribution channels to clear the hardest hurdle — being seen.
05 · EARN
Share in the upside
As your product is used and routes real compute, it earns HLX — contribution becomes ownership.
Incentives · HLX
Designed so builders share in what they create
HLX is the network's coordination layer — settlement, incentive and governance in one. For developers, it turns real usage into real ownership: the more your product contributes to the network, the more it earns.
01 · USAGE REWARDS
Earn as you're used
Products that route real compute and bring real usage earn HLX accordingly. The reward tracks contribution — usage you actually drive, not promises.
02 · GRANTS & SUBSIDIES
Funded through the fragile stage
Compute credits and build grants carry early projects past the point where cost usually kills momentum — so you can ship before you scale.
03 · DISTRIBUTION
Growth that's recognized
Bringing users and clearing cold start expands the whole network — and that growth is recognized in the incentive layer, not left uncounted.
04 · OWNERSHIP
A voice, not just a payout
Stake HLX for routing priority and better quotas, and help decide incubation direction, compute pricing and treasury spend as governance opens up.
ACTIVITY
Settlement and value flow through the network.
FLOW BACK
Value returns to the network and its contributors.
GROWTH
Stronger incentives draw more builders in.
// HONEST BY DESIGN
HLX's value is anchored in the network's real usage — not propped up by emissions. We're deliberately explaining utility first; the full economic model (supply, allocation, vesting) will be published in a dedicated Tokenomics document, not promised in numbers here. Nothing on this page is financial advice or an offer.
Why build here
Everything a builder needs, in one network
// ONE API
100+ models, one key
OpenAI-compatible. Point your SDK at Helix and reach every model with smart routing — no rebuild.
// FUEL
Subsidized compute
Build on aggregated, cost-routed supply with credits behind you — cost stops being the blocker.
// REACH
Built-in distribution
Launch inside the network and Base's consumer ecosystem, not from a standing start.
// OWN
Earn in HLX
Real usage earns real rewards — your product's success and the network's are the same thing.
The long game
A network where the people who build it own it.
As Labs grows, HLX is designed to align every developer with the network they grow — turning a storefront of products into a community of owners. Build something real; share in what it becomes.
