BuildDAO

Construction & Trades

Connecting skilled tradespeople with projects through guild-based coordination. Fair payments, verified credentials, and milestone-based escrow — building trust in the trades economy on Horizon Protocol.

In Development

BuildDAO is in the design phase. We're building the infrastructure to bring decentralized coordination to construction and skilled trades.

The Vision

A fair marketplace for construction and skilled trades.

Milestone Payments

Break projects into phases. Funds release as milestones complete, protecting both parties.

Verified Skills

On-chain credentials verify trade certifications, licenses, and past project history.

Trade Guilds

Specialized guilds for each trade provide collective resources, standards, and dispute resolution.

Escrow Security

Smart contract escrow holds project funds. Workers get paid, owners get protected.

Post a project and receive bids from qualified tradespeople.
