overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, audited smart contract systems built for production at scale.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the secure backbone of your Web3 product. Our development process is built for enterprise-grade security and mainnet readiness from day one.

  • Production-Ready Code: Built with Solidity 0.8+, Hardhat, and audited OpenZeppelin libraries.
  • Gas Optimization: Every contract is optimized for >30% lower gas costs on average.
  • Full Audit Trail: Includes comprehensive unit/integration tests and a formal audit readiness package.

We don't just write code; we deliver battle-tested, secure infrastructure that protects your users and your reputation.

Our deliverables are designed for seamless integration:

  • Modular Architecture: Clean, documented code with upgradeability patterns (UUPS/Transparent Proxy).
  • Deployment & Verification: Full support for multi-chain deployment on EVM-compatible networks.
  • Post-Launch Support: Monitoring, incident response, and upgrade management.

PROVEN FRAMEWORK

Our zkML Audit Methodology

A systematic, multi-layered approach designed to meet financial regulatory standards, ensuring your zkML circuits are mathematically sound, computationally secure, and production-ready.

01

Circuit Logic & Mathematical Verification

We rigorously verify the underlying mathematical models and logic of your zkML circuits against the original ML specifications. This ensures the zero-knowledge proof accurately represents the intended computation without hidden flaws.

zkML Audits for Regulated Industries

Our specialized audits provide the cryptographic proof and regulatory-grade documentation required for financial services, healthcare, and identity verification applications. We translate complex zkML models into verifiable compliance artifacts.

01

Regulatory Artifact Generation

We produce audit-ready documentation including formal verification reports, compliance matrices, and cryptographic proof logs. This package satisfies requirements for financial regulators (SEC, FINRA, MiCA) and data protection standards (GDPR, HIPAA).

zkML Audit FAQs

Get clear answers on our methodology, timeline, and security standards for auditing zero-knowledge machine learning systems.

We employ a four-phase, defense-in-depth methodology tailored for zkML's unique risks.

  1. Architecture & Specification Review: We analyze the system design, threat model, and formal specifications for logical flaws.
  2. Circuit & Cryptographic Review: Manual and automated analysis of the zk-SNARK/STARK circuits for soundness, completeness, and potential cryptographic vulnerabilities.
  3. Integration & Oracles Review: We audit the integration of the proving system with the ML model (e.g., ONNX conversion) and any data oracles for integrity risks.
  4. Final Verification & Reporting: We produce a detailed report with severity-ranked findings, proof-of-concept exploits, and actionable remediation guidance. Our process is based on NIST and ISO 27001 security frameworks.
