What Scene Infrastructure Company does

Scene Infrastructure Company (SIC), also operating as FWB Labs, is a private software company and the dedicated software development arm of the Friends With Benefits (FWB) Web3 community. Founded in 2021 and based in Delaware, the company employs between 1 and 10 people and was incorporated to build technology infrastructure for coordinating relationships between communities, their members, on-chain assets, and off-chain experiences. Its stated mission is to develop "better instruments for socialization," with a functional focus on bridging digital and physical community coordination.

The company's core offering is a community-asset coordination platform targeting Web3-native and crypto-native communities. Its technology is designed to manage the interplay between community membership, on-chain digital assets, and off-chain real-world experiences. Distribution and community engagement are conducted through Web3-native channels, notably Farcaster and Twitter/X, consistent with a community-led go-to-market motion aimed at the FWB ecosystem and adjacent crypto-native audiences.

Revenue is generated primarily through software development services delivered to FWB, including work to accelerate FWB software development and expand the utility of the FWB token. The company completed a $3 million seed funding round in January 2024 led by a16z crypto. No public pricing model, named external customers, or disclosed revenue figures are available, indicating that current operations are heavily anchored to a single client relationship with its parent organization.
