Grants for cross-chain builders
Funding and hands-on technical assistance for teams building on our technology — whether you arrive with a protocol or just an idea.
Composable Finance provides grants and hands-on technical assistance to teams building on our technology. We prioritize projects that deliver essential functionality or are genuinely innovative — and we want to work with you whether you arrive with a fully formed protocol or just an idea worth pursuing.
How much funding is available?
The Composable grants program has offered up to $100,000 per project. Grants cover both pallet developers and teams building applications on top of existing pallets.
What we support
- Primitive pallets. Low-level building blocks other pallets depend on.
- Core pallets. Shared infrastructure such as bridging, messaging and orchestration for the XCVM.
- Application pallets. User-facing DeFi products built from the pieces above.
- Infrastructure and tooling that makes trustless interoperability easier for everyone.
What makes a strong application?
- A clear problem that cross-chain execution solves better than a single chain.
- A realistic plan broken into milestones you can demonstrate.
- Code that other teams can reuse, not a closed product.
- A team that can show previous work, even if the project itself is only an idea.
More than funding
A grant from Composable is also access to our engineers. Teams work directly with Composable Labs and deploy to the Picasso parachain, plugging into trustless bridging via Centauri from day one.
Get started
If you're building cross-chain DeFi and want a partner rather than just a check, the grants program is the front door to the Composable Finance ecosystem. Tell us what you are building and which milestone you would start with.
