Collab.Land

Token-gated communities.

About Collab.Land​

Collab.Land is a market-leading Web3 infrastructure provider specializing in automated token-gated community management. Founded in 2020, it serves over 43,000 tokenized communities across 40+ blockchains including Ethereum, Optimism, and Polygon. Their flagship product is an automated bot that enables token-based access control for Discord/Telegram communities, coupled with continuous membership verification. The platform introduced the $COLLAB ERC-20 governance token in 2023, establishing a decentralized ecosystem managed through Collab.Land DAO.

Technology​

Built on an EVM-compatible stack, Collab.Land's core innovation is Token-Gating Rules (TGRs) - smart logic that automatically assigns roles based on:

  • Balance checks: Verifying ERC-20 token holdings
  • Attribute validation: Analyzing NFT metadata traits (ERC-721/1155)

The system performs real-time wallet scans across 30+ supported wallets/WalletConnect, with automated role management through Discord/Telegram API integrations. Their admin dashboard (Command Center) enables granular permission settings while maintaining user privacy - verified addresses remain encrypted and never exposed to community admins.

Key Features​

  • Multi-chain token gating: Supports 40+ L1/L2 networks
  • Dynamic role management: Auto-updates permissions based on wallet changes
  • Developer SDK: Enables custom token-gated web apps and API integrations
  • DAO governance: $COLLAB token holders vote on platform upgrades
  • Enterprise admin tools: Bulk member management and activity analytics
  • Miniapp ecosystem: Extend functionality through modular Web3 applications
  • Military-grade security: Non-custodial architecture with zero wallet access

Integration with Eliza​

While no official ElizaOS plugin repository exists, Collab.Land's REST APIs and JavaScript SDK enable deep integrations:

// Example token gating implementation
const { verifyTokenOwnership } = require('@collabland/sdk');

async function checkAccess(walletAddress) {
  return await verifyTokenOwnership({
    chainId: 1,
    contractAddress: '0x...',
    wallet: walletAddress,
  });
}

Technical synergies include embedding Collab.Land's token verification directly into ElizaOS workflows, enabling:

  • Native token-gated content access within Eliza interfaces
  • Automated role synchronization between Discord/Eliza environments
  • Joint governance models leveraging $COLLAB tokenholder input

Recent Developments​

  • 2023 COLLAB token launch: Distributed to 2M+ community members
  • EthCC 2024 participation: Showcased AI-powered community management tools
  • Multi-wallet support expansion: Added 15 new wallet integrations in 2024
  • Enterprise partnerships: New collaborations with Adidas, Pudgy Penguins

Market Position​

Dominant leader in token-gating infrastructure with:

  • 43,000+ active communities
  • 6.5M+ verified wallets (per Alchemy data)
  • Key competitors: Guild, Lit Protocol
  • Strategic partners: Optimism Collective, Aavegotchi, BanklessDAO

This integration creates a powerful synergy between ElizaOS's interface capabilities and Collab.Land's token-gating infrastructure, positioning both platforms as essential components in the Web3 community management stack.
