Institutional ZK-KYC Solution Architecture

We design and integrate private KYC/AML verification systems for financial institutions. Using zero-knowledge proofs, we validate user credentials without exposing sensitive data on-chain.

overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the foundation of your protocol. Our development process is built on security-first principles, utilizing battle-tested libraries like OpenZeppelin and comprehensive audit cycles to protect your assets and users.

From initial concept to mainnet deployment, we manage the full lifecycle with precision and transparency.

  • Token Systems: ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155 with custom minting, vesting, and governance logic.
  • DeFi Primitives: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), staking pools, yield aggregators, and lending protocols.
  • Enterprise Logic: Multi-signature wallets, access control systems, and custom business logic for real-world assets (RWA).
  • Deliverables: Fully documented source code, deployment scripts, and a comprehensive security audit report.

Core Architecture Components We Deliver

We architect and deploy the complete technical stack for your institutional ZK-KYC solution. Each component is built for security, compliance, and seamless integration with your existing systems.

01

Zero-Knowledge Proof Circuits

Custom-built zk-SNARK/STARK circuits for KYC verification. We design circuits that prove identity attributes (age, residency, accreditation) without revealing the underlying data, ensuring privacy and regulatory compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions on ZK-KYC

Get clear answers on implementation, security, and ROI for our institutional-grade Zero-Knowledge KYC solution.

End-users complete KYC once with a trusted, licensed provider (like Onfido or Jumio) that we integrate with. Their verified identity data is cryptographically signed and stored off-chain. When accessing your platform, users generate a ZK proof that confirms they are verified and meet your criteria (e.g., jurisdiction, accreditation) without revealing their identity. The on-chain verifier contract checks this proof in milliseconds, granting access.
