ENTERPRISE-GRADE COMPLIANCE
Core Capabilities of Your Parachain KYC Registry
A purpose-built, on-chain KYC registry that integrates seamlessly with your Substrate-based parachain, providing the compliance foundation for regulated DeFi, RWA tokenization, and institutional adoption.
01
Customizable On-Chain Identity
We implement modular identity pallets (e.g., pallet-identity) tailored to your jurisdiction's requirements. Supports verified credentials, selective disclosure, and granular permissioning for different user tiers (e.g., retail vs. accredited investor).

Infrastructure Decision Matrix
Build vs. Buy: Sovereign Parachain vs. Traditional KYC Solutions
A technical and economic comparison of building a custom KYC parachain versus using traditional, centralized KYC providers. This analysis is critical for CTOs and technical founders evaluating long-term sovereignty, cost, and compliance.
| Key Factor | Build In-House Parachain | Traditional KYC Provider | Chainscore Parachain KYC |
|---|---|---|---|
Time to Production | 9-18 months | 4-8 weeks | 8-12 weeks |
Initial Development Cost | $300K - $1M+ | $50K - $200K (setup + integration) | $120K - $300K |
Ongoing Annual Cost | $150K+ (team, infra) | 15-30% of revenue or high per-check fees | Fixed annual license + optional SLA |
Data Sovereignty & Portability | Full control, on-chain | Vendor lock-in, off-chain silo | Full control, on-chain registry |
Regulatory Compliance Burden | Your legal team (high) | Provider's responsibility (medium) | Shared framework + your legal review |
Technical Complexity & Risk | High (Substrate, cryptography, consensus) | Medium (API integration only) | Managed (we handle parachain, you integrate) |
Customization & Feature Roadmap | Complete control | Limited to vendor's roadmap | Co-developed roadmap with core flexibility |
Audit & Security Posture | Your responsibility (costly) | Opaque, proprietary systems | Transparent, audited open-source pallets |
Cross-Chain Interoperability | Custom bridges required | Typically chain-agnostic via API | Native XCM support for Polkadot/Kusama ecosystems |
Team Requirement | 4-6 senior Rust/Substrate engineers | 1-2 full-stack developers | 1-2 integration engineers + our team |
