# Builders

### **What Builders Do**

* **Deploy smart contracts and dApps** on the WASM-based runtime
* **Create AI agents** using the Nova AI Compiler
* **Design agent swarms** for perception, planning, and reasoning tasks
* **Integrate data feeds** via AI Agent Oracle Streams
* **Build modules and extensions** for agent memory, identity, and verifiable compute
* **Participate in hackathons and grants** to prototype new primitives

### **How Builders Contribute to $AMA**

* Consume $AMA for computation (agent execution fees)
* Pay gas fees for smart contract deployment
* Generate organic demand through usage of agents and dApps
* Onboard new users and external developers into the ecosystem
* Produce new primitives that attract partners and enterprise adoption
