BUILDING THE FOUNDATION
Core Development Capabilities
We deliver the complete technical stack for your AppChain's governance layer, from on-chain logic to off-chain tooling, ensuring security, scalability, and seamless integration.
01
Custom Governance Smart Contracts
We develop, audit, and deploy the core on-chain logic for your governance protocol, including proposal submission, voting mechanisms (token-weighted, quadratic), and treasury management using Solidity 0.8+ and OpenZeppelin libraries.

Governance Protocol Development FAQ
Answers to the most common questions from CTOs and founders evaluating a partner for their AppChain governance.
Our process follows a structured 4-phase approach: Discovery & Design (1 week), Core Development & Smart Contract Audit (2-3 weeks), Testnet Deployment & Integration (1 week), and Mainnet Launch & Support (1 week). A standard on-chain governance module with token-weighted voting typically deploys in 4-6 weeks. We provide a fixed-price proposal after a technical scoping call.
