overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, audited smart contracts built by experts to power your Web3 product.

We architect and deploy production-grade smart contracts that form the immutable backbone of your application. Our development process is built on security-first principles, utilizing OpenZeppelin libraries and rigorous internal audits to mitigate risk before your code touches the chain.

  • Custom Logic: Tailored Solidity 0.8+/Vyper contracts for DeFi, NFTs, DAOs, and enterprise use cases.
  • Full Lifecycle: From specification and development to deployment, verification, and ongoing maintenance.
  • Proven Security: Every contract undergoes multi-stage review and is prepared for third-party audits from firms like CertiK or Quantstamp.

Deliver a secure, gas-optimized, and upgradeable smart contract system in as little as 4-6 weeks, accelerating your time-to-market while ensuring fund safety and protocol integrity.

Our Quantum-Resistant Implementation

We deliver post-quantum cryptography (PQC) implementations that integrate seamlessly with your existing blockchain infrastructure, ensuring long-term security without sacrificing performance.

01

Hybrid Cryptography Architecture

Deploy a hybrid model combining classical ECDSA with NIST-standardized PQC algorithms (CRYSTALS-Kyber/Dilithium). This ensures backward compatibility while future-proofing your signatures and key exchange against quantum attacks.

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.

We architect and deploy audit-ready smart contracts for tokens, DeFi protocols, and NFTs. Our engineers write in Solidity 0.8+ and Rust, following OpenZeppelin standards and security best practices to mitigate vulnerabilities from day one.

From a custom ERC-20 token to a complex automated market maker, we deliver contracts that are secure, gas-optimized, and built to scale.

  • Full Development Lifecycle: Specification, implementation, testing (Hardhat/Foundry), and deployment.
  • Security-First: Formal verification, integration of Chainlink oracles, and preparation for third-party audits.
  • Measurable Outcomes: Achieve 99.9% uptime SLAs, reduce gas costs by up to 40%, and launch your MVP in as little as 2 weeks.
For Grid Infrastructure

Quantum-Resistant Cryptography FAQ

Technical and commercial questions for CTOs and security architects evaluating post-quantum cryptography for critical infrastructure.

Standard integration takes 4-8 weeks from assessment to production-ready deployment. This includes a 1-week security architecture review, 2-3 weeks for cryptographic library integration and key management system updates, 1-2 weeks for rigorous testing (including side-channel analysis), and a final week for staged deployment. Complex, legacy SCADA systems may extend this to 12 weeks.
