PREDICTABLE, AUDITABLE, AND SECURE
Our Structured Delivery Process
From initial design to production deployment, our phased methodology ensures your compensation system is delivered on time, within scope, and built to institutional security standards.
01
Discovery & Requirements Analysis
We conduct a deep-dive workshop to map your existing equity, token, and fiat compensation structures onto a compliant on-chain model. We define vesting schedules, governance permissions, and reporting requirements.

CORE INFRASTRUCTURE
Smart Contract Development
Secure, audited smart contracts built to your exact specifications.
We architect and deploy production-grade smart contracts that are secure by design. Every line of Solidity or Rust is written with gas optimization and attack vector mitigation as first principles. Our process includes:
- Formal verification and multi-audit cycles before mainnet deployment.
- Gas optimization to reduce user transaction costs by up to 40%.
- Upgradeability patterns using
Transparent ProxyorUUPSfor seamless future iterations. - Comprehensive testing with 95%+ coverage across unit, integration, and fork-chain scenarios.
Move from specification to a fully audited, mainnet-ready contract in as little as 3 weeks.
We specialize in custom logic for:
- DeFi Protocols: DEXs, lending/borrowing platforms, yield aggregators.
- NFT Ecosystems: ERC-721A, ERC-1155 with advanced minting, staking, and royalty mechanics.
- Enterprise & RWA: Tokenization of real-world assets with compliant transfer restrictions.
- Cross-Chain & Layer 2: Native development for
Arbitrum,Optimism,Polygon, andzkSync.
Institutional DAO Compensation
Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on how we build compliant, automated compensation systems for DAOs and Web3 organizations.
A standard deployment for a modular compensation framework takes 4-6 weeks from kickoff to mainnet launch. This includes requirements analysis, smart contract development, integration with your existing treasury (e.g., Gnosis Safe), and a full security audit. Complex multi-DAO structures or custom vesting logic may extend this to 8-10 weeks.
