PROVEN METHODOLOGY
Our Development & Integration Process
A structured, security-first approach to delivering production-ready MEV modules that integrate seamlessly with your validator operations, minimizing risk and accelerating time-to-value.
01
Architecture & Design Review
We analyze your validator's existing infrastructure and consensus participation to design a custom MEV module architecture. This ensures optimal integration with IBC, staking logic, and governance without compromising chain security.
1-2 weeks
Design Phase

Expert Insights
Frequently Asked Questions on Cosmos MEV Modules
Get clear, technical answers to the most common questions about developing and deploying MEV modules for the Cosmos SDK.
Our process follows a structured 4-phase approach: 1) Discovery & Architecture (1 week): We analyze your validator's goals, design the MEV strategy (e.g., PBS, threshold encryption), and finalize the technical spec. 2) Core Development (2-3 weeks): We build the custom Cosmos SDK module, integrating with your chosen relayer and auction mechanisms. 3) Testing & Simulation (1-2 weeks): We conduct extensive unit/integration tests and run MEV simulations using tools like mev-inspect-cosmos to validate profitability and security. 4) Deployment & Integration (1 week): We assist with mainnet deployment, validator set configuration, and provide comprehensive documentation. Most projects move from concept to mainnet in 5-7 weeks.
