We architect and deploy custom smart contracts on EVM and Solana that form the backbone of your Web3 product. Our development process is built on OpenZeppelin standards and formal verification to ensure security from day one.
ZK Proof Security Audit
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built for scale and compliance.
Deliver a secure, auditable, and gas-optimized contract suite in as little as 2-4 weeks.
- Full Lifecycle Development: From ideation and
Solidity/Rustcoding to deployment and on-chain monitoring. - Security-First Approach: Rigorous internal audits, adherence to
ERCstandards, and preparation for third-party audits. - Production Focus: Gas optimization, upgradeability patterns (
Proxy), and integration with frontends and oracles.
Our AI-Augmented Audit Methodology
We combine deep cryptographic expertise with proprietary AI tooling to deliver the most rigorous and efficient ZK proof security audits in the industry. This hybrid approach ensures comprehensive coverage and faster time-to-market for your critical zero-knowledge applications.
AI-Powered Vulnerability Detection
Our proprietary AI engine scans millions of lines of Circom, Noir, and Halo2 code to identify common and novel vulnerability patterns, reducing manual review time by up to 40% while increasing coverage.
Expert-Led Cryptographic Review
Every finding is validated and contextualized by our team of PhD cryptographers and protocol specialists. We focus on soundness, completeness, and real-world exploit scenarios beyond automated checks.
Formal Verification Integration
We integrate formal methods to mathematically prove the correctness of your circuit's constraints and logic, providing the highest assurance level for safety-critical financial applications.
Gas & Performance Optimization
Audit includes detailed analysis of prover/keygen costs and on-chain verification gas. We provide actionable recommendations to optimize performance and reduce operational expenses by up to 60%.
Comprehensive Reporting & Remediation
Receive a detailed audit report with CVSS-scored vulnerabilities, proof-of-concept exploits, and line-by-line remediation guidance. We support you through the entire fix-verify cycle.
Continuous Security Monitoring
Post-audit, our systems monitor for newly discovered vulnerabilities affecting your dependencies and toolchains, providing proactive alerts to maintain your security posture.
Why Choose Chainscore for ZK Audits
Our specialized team delivers rigorous, protocol-level security assessments for zero-knowledge circuits and proving systems, ensuring the mathematical integrity of your most critical cryptographic infrastructure.
Deep Protocol & Circuit Expertise
Our auditors hold advanced degrees in cryptography and have contributed to major ZK frameworks like Circom, Halo2, and Plonky2. We audit the underlying math, not just the code.
Comprehensive Threat Modeling
We go beyond syntax checks to model sophisticated attacks: soundness errors, prover/verifier mismatches, trusted setup risks, and side-channel vulnerabilities specific to ZK systems.
Proven Methodology & Tooling
Leverage our battle-tested audit playbook and custom static analysis tools designed for ZK constructs, catching subtle bugs in constraint systems and proof generation logic.
Actionable, Developer-First Reports
Receive clear, prioritized findings with concrete remediation steps and proof-of-concept exploits. We provide guidance on gas optimization for on-chain verifiers and proof size reduction.

ZK Proof Security Audit FAQs
Get clear, specific answers about our zero-knowledge proof security audit process, timelines, and outcomes.
Our audit follows a rigorous 4-phase methodology: 1) Specification Review to understand protocol logic and assumptions. 2) Manual Code Review by senior auditors focusing on cryptographic soundness, circuit correctness, and front-running risks. 3) Automated Testing using custom fuzzing tools and symbolic execution for edge cases. 4) Formal Verification where applicable, using tools like Circomspect and custom constraint system analysis. We produce a detailed report with severity-ranked findings, proof-of-concept exploits, and actionable remediation guidance.
