What to Build
Build anything that uses RAIL. Seriously, anything. We want to see what you come up with.
- •Real-world apps: Payment platforms, AI agent communication, microtransactions
- •Fun stuff: Meme generators, community tools, games, experiments
- •Wild ideas: Something we haven't thought of yet
The only requirement: it must use RAIL's x402 protocol on Solana.
Judging Criteria
We're looking for projects that are creative, well-executed, and fun. Whether it's a serious app or a hilarious meme, make it good.
- •Creativity: Did you do something unique? Bonus points for making us laugh or think differently
- •Execution: Does it work? Is the code clean? Did you ship something complete?
- •Experience: Is it easy to use? Does it look good? Would people actually want to use it?
- •Impact: Could this be useful? Or at least entertaining? We value both
