overview
FULLY MANAGED

Blockchain Infrastructure & Node Management

Enterprise-grade node infrastructure with 99.9% uptime SLA, eliminating operational overhead.

We deploy, monitor, and maintain your blockchain nodes so your team can focus on building. Our infrastructure is built for high availability, low-latency RPC access, and real-time chain data.

  • Multi-Chain Support: Full nodes, validators, and RPC endpoints for Ethereum, Polygon, Solana, Avalanche, and Base.
  • Automated Operations: Zero-downtime upgrades, automated failover, and 24/7 health monitoring.
  • Security & Compliance: SOC 2 Type II compliant infrastructure with DDoS protection and private VPC deployment options.
  • Performance Guarantee: <100ms RPC latency and 99.9% uptime SLA backed by contractual agreement.

Deploy a production-ready node cluster in under 48 hours, with predictable monthly billing and dedicated engineer support.

Core Capabilities of Our ZK-Rollup Payroll System

A purpose-built, modular infrastructure that delivers confidential payroll processing with the scalability and cost-efficiency of Layer 2. We handle the complex cryptography so you can focus on your core business.

01

Zero-Knowledge Payroll Processing

Process payroll runs with complete confidentiality. Individual salaries, bonuses, and tax withholdings are kept private on-chain, visible only to the employee and authorized administrators via ZK proofs.

Modular Rollup Architecture

Deploy on your choice of EVM-compatible L1 (Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon) with our custom ZK-rollup stack. Isolate payroll logic from your main dApp for security and simplified compliance.

Automated Compliance & Reporting

Generate auditable, privacy-preserving proof of payroll execution for regulators. Automate year-end tax document generation (e.g., W-2/1099 equivalents) as verifiable claims without exposing underlying data.

Gas-Optimized Proof Batching

Drastically reduce L1 settlement costs by batching hundreds of payroll transactions into a single ZK proof. Our circuits are optimized for minimal prover time and verification gas.

STRUCTURED EXECUTION

Our Delivery Process: From Design to Deployment

We deliver production-ready ZK-Rollup payroll systems through a proven, transparent process. Each phase is designed to de-risk your project and ensure seamless integration with your existing financial infrastructure.

01

Phase 1: Architecture & Privacy Design

We conduct a deep-dive workshop to map your payroll logic and compliance requirements onto a zero-knowledge circuit architecture. This includes defining the privacy set (who can see what), selecting the optimal ZK-SNARK framework (e.g., Circom, Halo2), and finalizing the on-chain/off-chain data flow.

Phase 2: Circuit Development & Audit

Our cryptography engineers implement the custom ZK circuits that prove payroll calculations are correct without revealing sensitive salary data. We follow formal verification practices and submit the circuit logic for an independent security review before any integration.

Development Time

External Audit Mandatory
03

Phase 3: Smart Contract & Rollup Integration

We deploy the verifier contracts (Solidity/Vyper) to your chosen L1/L2 and build the off-chain prover service. This phase includes integrating with your existing HR/payroll APIs and implementing the sequencer and data availability layer for the rollup.

Phase 4: Staging & Compliance Testing

Your system is deployed to a staging environment mirroring production. We execute full payroll cycles with test data, validate privacy guarantees, and run compliance checks (e.g., tax withholding proofs, audit trail generation) to ensure regulatory readiness.
