We architect and deploy custom smart contracts for DeFi, NFTs, and enterprise applications. Our team writes in Solidity 0.8+ and Vyper, following OpenZeppelin standards and security best practices to ensure your logic is robust and gas-optimized from day one.
ZK Identity Consulting & Strategy
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3 experts to power your protocol.
- Full Lifecycle Support: From initial design and development to deployment, verification, and ongoing maintenance.
- Security-First Approach: Rigorous internal audits, formal verification, and integration with tools like
SlitherandFoundry. - Protocol Integration: Seamless compatibility with major standards like
ERC-20,ERC-721,ERC-1155, and cross-chain bridges. - Guaranteed Outcomes: We deliver audit-ready code with comprehensive documentation, enabling a 2-4 week MVP launch.
We don't just write code; we build the secure, scalable foundation your Web3 product needs to succeed and scale with confidence.
Our Strategic Advisory Deliverables
We translate ZK identity theory into concrete, executable plans. Our deliverables are designed for immediate technical implementation and long-term strategic alignment.
Business Outcomes of a Structured ZK Identity Strategy
Our consulting delivers more than theoretical frameworks. We architect and implement ZK identity systems that directly impact your bottom line, security posture, and user growth.
Reduced On-Chain Gas Costs
Replace bulky on-chain identity data with lightweight ZK proofs. We design systems that minimize storage and verification costs, directly lowering transaction fees for your users and your protocol.
Enhanced User Acquisition & Retention
Remove sign-up friction with seamless, self-sovereign logins. Our Sybil-resistant reputation systems and privacy-first design attract privacy-conscious users and build lasting trust.
New Monetization & Governance Models
Unlock token-gated experiences, verifiable credentials for DeFi, and privacy-preserving DAO voting. We help you create new revenue streams and fairer governance powered by provable identity.
Faster Time-to-Market
Leverage our pre-audited circuit libraries and deployment playbooks. We move from strategy to production-ready implementation in weeks, not months, accelerating your roadmap.
Build vs. Buy vs. Guided Implementation
A clear comparison of approaches to implementing Zero-Knowledge Proof identity solutions, from a full in-house build to a managed service.
| Key Factor | Build In-House | Buy (Off-the-Shelf SDK) | Guided Implementation (Chainscore) |
|---|---|---|---|
Time to Production | 6-12+ months | 2-4 months | 4-8 weeks |
Initial Development Cost | $250K - $750K+ | $50K - $150K | $75K - $200K |
ZK Circuit Expertise Required | High (Hiring a team) | Medium (Integration only) | Low (We provide it) |
Security & Audit Burden | Your responsibility (High risk) | Shared (Depends on vendor) | Our responsibility (Audited patterns) |
Custom Logic & Flexibility | Complete control | Limited to SDK features | Tailored to your use case |
Ongoing Maintenance | Full internal team required | Vendor updates + your integration | Optional SLA with our team |
Integration Support | None | Documentation & community | Dedicated technical architect |
Proven Architecture | You must design & test | Vendor's generic template | Battle-tested for FinTech/Web3 |
Total Cost of Ownership (Year 1) | $400K - $1M+ | $100K - $250K | $150K - $300K |
Recommended For | Tech giants with vast ZK teams | MVPs with standard needs | Startups & enterprises scaling securely |
Our Phased Consulting Methodology
Our proven, step-by-step framework de-risks your ZK identity integration, ensuring a secure, scalable, and compliant rollout from concept to production.
Phase 1: Strategy & Architecture
We define your identity model, threat landscape, and compliance requirements. Deliverables include a technical architecture blueprint, protocol selection (e.g., Semaphore, Sismo), and a detailed roadmap with success metrics.
Phase 2: Proof-of-Concept Development
We build a functional POC to validate core ZK circuits and user flows. This includes custom circuit design (Cairo, Circom), smart contract scaffolding, and a security-first integration test suite.
Phase 3: Production Audit & Hardening
Your system undergoes rigorous security review. We coordinate audits with leading firms (e.g., Trail of Bits, Spearbit), implement findings, and establish formal verification processes for your ZK circuits.
Phase 4: Launch & Integration Support
We manage the mainnet deployment, provide on-call engineering support for the launch window, and deliver comprehensive documentation for your team to own and scale the system.
ZK Identity Strategy: Common Questions
Answers to the most frequent technical and strategic questions from CTOs and product leads evaluating ZK identity solutions.
Our 4-phase ZK Identity Strategy engagement follows a structured, milestone-driven approach:
- Discovery & Assessment (1-2 weeks): We conduct technical workshops to audit your current identity flow, define privacy requirements, and map compliance needs (GDPR, AML).
- Architecture Design (2-3 weeks): We deliver a detailed technical specification, including protocol selection (e.g., Semaphore, Sismo, Polygon ID), circuit design, and integration architecture.
- Implementation Support (3-8 weeks): Our engineers provide hands-on development, code review, and security guidance. We use battle-tested libraries like
snarkjsandcircom. - Audit & Go-Live (1-2 weeks): We facilitate a formal security audit with partners like Spearbit and oversee the production deployment.
This process has been refined across 20+ identity projects, ensuring predictable delivery and risk mitigation.
