PROVEN METHODOLOGY
Our Development & Delivery Process
A structured, security-first approach to building compliant, high-performance energy derivatives contracts. We deliver production-ready systems, not just code.
01
Discovery & Architecture Design
We conduct a deep-dive workshop to define your product's core logic, regulatory requirements, and oracle dependencies. The output is a detailed technical specification and system architecture diagram.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on our development process, security, and timelines for building institutional-grade on-chain energy markets.
A standard energy futures contract with oracle integration and a basic UI takes 4-6 weeks from specification to mainnet deployment. Complex systems with multiple instrument types (options, swaps) and custom risk engines typically require 8-12 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan with weekly milestones after the initial scoping call.
