overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, gas-optimized smart contracts built to your exact specifications.

We architect and deploy production-grade smart contracts that power your Web3 application. Our process delivers secure, audited, and maintainable code from day one.

  • Custom Logic: Build on ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, or bespoke standards.
  • Security First: Development follows OpenZeppelin patterns, with formal verification and third-party audits.
  • Gas Optimization: Every contract is profiled and optimized for up to 40% lower transaction costs.
  • Full Lifecycle: From initial spec and Hardhat/Foundry testing to mainnet deployment and upgrade management.

We deliver a battle-tested contract suite in 2-4 weeks, ready for integration with your frontend and backend systems.

ARCHITECTURE

Core Components of Our Dispute Resolution System

Our modular system is built on battle-tested smart contract patterns and security-first principles, designed to resolve treasury disputes with finality, transparency, and minimal governance overhead.

01

On-Chain Escrow & Multi-Sig Module

Secure, time-locked fund management using Gnosis Safe patterns. Funds are held in a transparent, auditable escrow contract with configurable release conditions, eliminating counterparty risk during disputes.

Fund Security
Gnosis Safe

02

Automated Evidence Submission Portal

Structured, timestamped evidence logging with IPFS/Arweave integration. Ensures an immutable, tamper-proof audit trail for all proposals, transactions, and communications related to the dispute.

03

Modular Jury Selection Engine

Configurable, reputation-weighted selection from a vetted panel of experts or token-weighted selection from the DAO. Implements Sybil resistance and conflict-of-interest checks.

Binding Arbitration Smart Contracts

Final, on-chain settlement execution. Once a ruling is reached by the jury, the outcome is automatically enforced by the smart contract, releasing escrowed funds or executing predefined actions.

Transparency Dashboard & Reporting

Real-time visibility into all active and historical disputes for DAO members. Provides analytics on resolution times, outcomes, and jury performance to improve governance processes.

MEASURABLE RESULTS

Business Outcomes for Your DAO

Our dispute resolution framework delivers tangible governance improvements and operational security, moving beyond theoretical solutions to provide auditable, on-chain results.

01

Resolve Treasury Disputes in Days, Not Months

Automated, on-chain governance workflows with multi-sig enforcement reduce dispute resolution cycles from months to an average of 7-14 days, unlocking frozen capital faster.
