overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built for scale and compliance.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts on EVM and Solana that power your core business logic. Our development process is built on OpenZeppelin standards and rigorous security-first principles.

From tokenomics to governance, we translate your requirements into immutable, gas-efficient code.

  • Full Lifecycle Support: Audit, deployment, and upgrade management with EIP-2535 Diamonds.
  • Compliance Ready: Built-in support for ERC-20, ERC-721, and token standards with pausable/mintable controls.
  • Proven Security: Every contract undergoes manual review and automated analysis before mainnet deployment.

PROVEN PROCESS

Our ZKML Audit Methodology

Our systematic approach combines deep cryptographic expertise with smart contract security best practices to deliver audits that protect your project and build user trust.

01

Architecture & Design Review

We analyze your ZK circuit design and smart contract architecture for logical flaws, gas inefficiencies, and integration risks before a single line of code is reviewed.
