ENTERPRISE-GRADE INFRASTRUCTURE
Architected for IoT Scale and Sovereignty
We build Cosmos-based IoT AppChains with the performance, security, and control required for mission-critical deployments. Our architecture ensures predictable costs, data privacy, and seamless integration with existing enterprise systems.
01
Custom Consensus & Finality
We implement tailored consensus mechanisms (e.g., Tendermint BFT, CometBFT) optimized for your IoT network's latency and throughput requirements, achieving sub-2-second finality for device-to-device transactions.

Business Outcomes: From Cost Center to Revenue Stream
Traditional IoT platforms are expensive to operate and monetize. We architect Cosmos AppChains that transform your data pipeline into a secure, programmable asset, unlocking new business models and revenue streams.
01
Monetize Device Data
Implement tokenized data streams and micro-payment rails, enabling direct P2P transactions between devices and services. Move from subscription fees to usage-based revenue.

IoT AppChain Development: Key Questions
Answers to the most common questions from CTOs and product leads evaluating a custom IoT blockchain solution.
A standard IoT AppChain MVP with core consensus, data attestation, and device onboarding is deployed in 2-4 weeks. Complex implementations with custom IBC integrations, advanced privacy (e.g., zk-proofs for sensor data), and enterprise dashboards typically take 6-10 weeks. We use a phased delivery model, providing a testnet for validation after the first 3 weeks.
