World Build 3 is officially live!

World Build Labs is an elite builder community that supports founders interested in building applications on World – the real human network. 

We just launched World Build 3, a 5-month program designed to help founders ship to scale from day one that unlocks:

  • Instant distribution to 38M+ users across 160 countries

  • Up to $200K in grant funding from World Foundation

  • Fully funded trips to Seoul and San Francisco

  • 50+ mentor hours from global founders

World Build founders have reached 6M+ users and raised over $15M in venture capital in the last 12 months, and they're just getting started. 

Join us this Friday, March 13th, with Tools for Humanity's Head of Ecosystem, Leighton Cusack, to learn more — more info below.

Applications for WB3 close April 23rd, 2026.

How It Works: 

Apply & Hack – our online hackathon runs from April 23-26 with $20K in prizes.

Build – fully funded trip to Seoul for a build retreat to stress-test your product with real users, plus a 3-month virtual program with World's team office hours and support.

Demo – fully funded trip to San Francisco for Demo Day to pitch for top-tier VCs at World HQ.
