We architect and deploy custom Solidity and Rust smart contracts that are secure by design. Every contract undergoes a multi-stage audit process before mainnet deployment, integrating best practices from OpenZeppelin and formal verification tools.

Strategic Decision Analysis
Build vs. Buy: Custom Royalty Standard
Compare the total cost, risk, and time investment of developing a custom royalty standard internally versus partnering with Chainscore Labs for a production-ready, audited solution.
| Factor | Build In-House | Partner with Chainscore |
|---|---|---|
Time to Production | 4-9 months | 4-8 weeks |
Initial Development Cost | $120K - $300K+ | $25K - $75K |
Security Audit Requirement | Mandatory (adds $30K-$80K) | Included (CertiK, OpenZeppelin) |
EIP-2981 & EIP-5516 Compliance | Your team's research | Pre-built, battle-tested modules |
Multi-Chain Deployment (EVM) | Custom deployment per chain | Standardized deployment for Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Base |
Ongoing Maintenance & Upgrades | Full-stack team required | Optional SLA with 24/7 monitoring |
Royalty Enforcement Mechanisms | Risk of flawed logic | Proven on-chain enforcement & fallbacks |
Total Year 1 Cost (Est.) | $150K - $380K+ | $50K - $150K |
Primary Risk | High (Security flaws, delayed launch) | Low (Audited, time-certain delivery) |

Technical & Commercial Insights
Royalty Standard Development FAQs
Answers to common questions from CTOs and product leads evaluating custom royalty protocol development.
A standard EIP-2981-compliant royalty contract with custom logic (e.g., tiered splits, time-based rules) typically deploys in 2-4 weeks from kickoff. Complex protocols with multi-chain deployment or novel enforcement mechanisms can take 6-8 weeks. Our agile process includes weekly demos to ensure alignment.
