TANGIBLE RESULTS
Business Outcomes of Optimized ZK Proofs
Reducing ZK proof size is a technical challenge with direct business impact. Our optimization services deliver measurable improvements in cost, speed, and user experience.
01
Dramatic Cost Reduction
Smaller proofs mean lower on-chain verification gas fees. We deliver up to 70% reduction in per-transaction costs for high-volume applications like rollups and private transactions.

A SYSTEMATIC APPROACH
Our Methodology for Proof Size Reduction
We combine advanced cryptographic techniques with deep protocol engineering to deliver the smallest, most efficient zero-knowledge proofs for your application. Our methodology is proven to reduce costs and improve user experience.
01
Circuit Optimization & Constraint Minimization
We analyze and rewrite your ZK circuits to minimize the number of constraints, directly reducing proof size and verification cost. This includes leveraging custom gates and lookup arguments where applicable.
