A List of Arbitrum-Based Consumer Apps

General
1

I’m starting this topic to keep a list of Arbitrum-based consumer apps in one place, with a focus on non-financial, day-to-day applications.

Where will this come useful? For example, when we attend conferences and represent Arbitrum, it’s great to have apps we can recommend to people curious about Arbitrum.

It’s also helpful when talking to crypto newcomers who want to try blockchain-based apps but aren’t yet comfortable using browser wallets.

So the focus of this list is on consumer-oriented apps that are easy to use and preferably have a mobile app.

The List

A decentralized chat app with very simple onboarding process (no phone number required). I wrote more about it in this topic: Session chat app and the Arbitrum DAO

A web3 alternative to Zoom and Google Meet. More about Huddle01 Meet in this topic by @paulofonseca: [Non-Constitutional] Let's get our huddles (aka. video calls) in order

A loyalty program platform for restaurants. I wasn’t aware of it until Hunter from Offchain Labs told me about it the other day. Arbitrum is used underneath for keeping track of loyalty points within the system.

An Arbitrum-based fintech app with a debit card. Although this is a financial app, I nevertheless included it since it’s consumer-facing, easy to use, and mobile-friendly.

What’s Missing

Web3 allows us to ditch web2 APIs and build consumer apps on truly open and permissionless protocols.

I’d love to see more everyday web3 apps built on Arbitrum, things like a calendar app, task manager, event organizer (like Meetup), storage app (like Dropbox), blogging platform, music streaming service etc.

Feel free to share in this thread any other Arbitrum-based consumer apps I might have missed, or ideas you’d like to see built.

Having this kind of lists can also support efforts around builder and distribution objectives once the final SOS proposal is approved.

@TempeTechie It’s great to see this kind of post on the forum — thank you! Assuming the goal is to think big, it would be cool to see transportation and ride-sharing services using Arbitrum. Imagine if Waymo, Uber, and Lyft used Arbitrum’s network for coordination and settlement. Or what if a crypto-native competitor emerged? For example, a decentralized transportation network that used Arbitrum as its execution and settlement layer.

maybe we can attract Dimo to Arbitrum. When I’m trying to explain to normies how crypto can be cool, I always use Dimo as an example of a crypto app that unlocks new use cases that can only be done properly with crypto

for those that don’t know, with Dimo, I basically get paid to drive in my own car, because I’m sharing the car sensors data with Dimo, and they then sell that data to car manufacturers. especially if you drive a Tesla, you can just connect the Dimo app to your Tesla account and start earning between $40 to $60 USD per 1000 kms driven (depending on the $DIMO token price, of course), which is more than what it costs to charge an electric car at home to drive that much. so it’s basically free fuel!

Dimo currently runs on Polygon, but we might be able to persuade them to migrate to their own Orbit chain, actually. That would be cool.

Does DIMO also have their own Maps? Because it would be great to eventually have a web3 alternative to Google Maps.

This is really wonderful, thank you for putting this out there.

In the RnDAO Ecosystem:

  • meetwith.xyz scheduling (think calendly competitor), allows you to create scheduling groups where you can add anyone and see their availability. Privacy-preserving and also allows for paid meetings using stablecoins in Arbitrum.
  • Harmonica.chat surveys but using a chatbot for deeper insights and cross-pollination, soon with stablecoin rewards
  • negationgame.com evolution of prediction markets that reward intellectual honesty. Applications for funding allocation, strategy making, arbitration, etc
  • commonground.cg communication platform (think discord/slack competitor) with events, videocalls, token gating, and ability to natively run apps inside the UI.
    fairAI: cost optimisation for manufacturing companies using AI agents.
    Bulla,network: accounting and stablecoins payroll that powers onchain invoice factoring
    Also in progress
  • onchain cap table: Launchboard
  • recruitment and automated analysis of skills: Contribo
  • 2 more in research phase (one is a task manager actually) and discussing with another one to join us from Base

They have different degrees of onchain but more and more stuff as we advance the integration roadmap

Awesome, thanks for sharing! Would love to see Meetwith turn into an onchain protocol (currently only payments are onchain if I understand correctly). Do you happen to know if they plan on doing that?

The tool already works on the basis of creating a wallet in the back, which serves as the identifier, so it desintermediates the email to provide more privacy. And we plan to expand this identity piece.
Then, depending on what you have in mind, I’m happy to pass the idea to the team or otherwise connect you.

Do you guys know if any of those teams will be in Devconnect? If yes, please extend them an invite for ArbiCasa and feel free to put me in touch with them. Trying to organise a session for builders there

A couple are but might be tricky to get them to attend. They’ve asked for support/collaboration with Arbitrum and the impresison they got was a bit like “everyone is optimising their silo and supporting apps in the ecosystem is no one’s job with no overall willingness to try things”. (not a universal experience but happened a couple times and the word spreads…)

If there’s a concrete plan/offer/pitch of why they should prioritise it, I’d be happy to forward it, but “just come to chat” might be a bit tricky at this point. As far as I understand, they don’t have grudges, but it’s just a matter of priorities.

Working on preparing a specific session - need to confirm some details and then it’ll be more easy to pitch. Will DM you once ready
