PROVEN FRAMEWORK
Our Integration Methodology
A structured, four-phase approach to integrate Plonk-based protocols with precision, security, and speed, minimizing risk and accelerating your time-to-market.
01
Architecture & Feasibility Analysis
We conduct a deep technical audit of your existing stack and the target Plonk-based protocol (e.g., Aztec, Polygon zkEVM) to design a secure, gas-efficient integration blueprint. This phase identifies dependencies and potential bottlenecks before a single line of code is written.

Technical & Commercial Considerations
Plonk Integration FAQs
Common questions from CTOs and technical founders evaluating a Plonk-based protocol integration partner.
A standard integration for a new privacy or scaling feature takes 3-6 weeks from specification to testnet deployment. This includes circuit design, implementation, testing, and integration with your existing smart contracts. For a full protocol migration or a complex custom circuit (e.g., a novel DEX AMM), timelines extend to 8-12 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan with weekly milestones after the initial technical scoping call.
