Build the next big thing on Lia. We bring the people.
Lia gives your web app an audience, payments and a team that backs you. You bring the idea.
Why build on Lia. Most great apps die waiting for users. On Lia, they're already here.
Reach
Your app sits in Lia's Apps Center, in front of a community that loves trying new things. Friends invite friends straight into it.
Get paid
People pay for what you sell with $LIA on Lia's own pay sheet. You never handle a card or a wallet.
Get backed
Lia Labs funds and guides the best teams building on Lia, with the tools to grow without worrying.
Live in three steps.
Everything in the SDK. The parts every app needs, already built, and feeling like part of Lia.
<!-- One script, and your app is part of Lia -->
<script src="https://api.lialabs.org/sdk/lia-apps-v1.js"></script>
const me = await Lia.init(); // signed in: me.player.name
Lia.ready();
// Sell something on Lia's pay sheet, paid in $LIA
const { chargeId } = await Lia.pay("extra-lives");
// Bring friends in, and keep score
await Lia.inviteFriend({ startParam: "room-42" });
await Lia.submitScore(1280);The hard parts, handled. So you can focus on what you're making.
Payments you can trust
Lia's pay sheet shows the price from Lia's records, never your page's. Your server confirms each charge, delivers it, and refunds it if something goes wrong. You earn your share of every sale.
Reward your players
Lia can fund a reward pool for your app. Your server pays players from it in $LIA, once per reward, within the daily limit set for your app.
Test before you launch
Every app has test keys and its own testers. Try everything with pretend $LIA, then switch to live keys when you're ready.
Checked on your server
Sessions, charges and watched videos are all verified by your server with your secret key, so nothing important ever trusts the browser.
Notifications, never spam
Players choose whether your app may notify them, and Lia limits how often, so the people who say yes stay glad they did.
Every language, every theme
Your app opens in the person's language, light or dark, with the safe areas of their phone, so it feels at home in Lia from day one.
Builder questions.
What can I build?
Games, tools, communities: anything that runs in a browser. Your app opens inside Lia as a sheet or full screen, in the person's language and theme.
How do I get paid?
When someone buys something in your app on Lia's pay sheet, the $LIA leaves their balance and your share is held for you by Lia Labs.
Do I need my own servers?
Not for the basics: sign in, leaderboards, storage and notifications are part of Lia. For anything you sell or reward, your server checks it with your secret key.
How do I get funded?
