Our Prover Optimization Methodology
We apply a systematic, four-pillar approach to accelerate your StarkNet prover, delivering predictable performance gains and faster transaction finality.
Architecture & Parallelization Audit
We analyze your Cairo program's structure to identify and eliminate bottlenecks. Our experts restructure logic for optimal parallel execution, reducing proving time by up to 40%.
Circuit-Level Constraint Optimization
We rewrite and simplify Cairo constraints and hints to minimize computational overhead. This deep technical work directly reduces the prover's workload and resource consumption.
Hardware-Accelerated Prover Setup
We configure and benchmark your prover infrastructure for GPU/FPGA acceleration. Our deployment scripts ensure optimal resource allocation for your specific workload.
Continuous Performance Monitoring
We implement real-time dashboards tracking prover metrics (TPS, latency, cost). Receive alerts and actionable insights to maintain peak efficiency as your dApp scales.
Business Outcomes of Faster Proof Generation
Our StarkNet Cairo prover speed enhancements deliver more than just technical performance. They translate directly into measurable business results, from reduced operational costs to accelerated product cycles.
Lower Transaction Costs
Faster proof generation directly reduces the computational resources required per transaction, slashing your L1 settlement fees. This makes your application more cost-effective for end-users and improves your unit economics.
Improved User Experience
Achieve near-instant transaction finality for your users. Faster proofs mean quicker deposit/withdrawal confirmations from L1, eliminating frustrating delays and building user trust in your platform's performance.
Enhanced Scalability & Throughput
Process more transactions per second without hitting prover bottlenecks. Our optimizations allow your application to handle peak loads and user growth while maintaining consistent, predictable performance.
Faster Time-to-Market
Accelerate your development and deployment cycles. With proven, optimized proving infrastructure, your team can focus on core product logic instead of low-level performance tuning, getting features live weeks sooner.
Reduced Infrastructure Complexity
Eliminate the need to build, manage, and scale your own proving cluster. Our managed service handles all Cairo-STARK optimization, security patching, and hardware provisioning, freeing your DevOps resources.
Competitive Market Positioning
Offer features and pricing that competitors relying on standard proving cannot match. Lower fees and faster finality become key differentiators that attract users and increase market share in crowded DeFi/NFT segments.

Our Engagement Process
We deliver measurable StarkNet performance gains through a structured, collaborative process designed for technical founders and engineering leads. From initial assessment to production deployment, our focus is on predictable timelines, transparent communication, and verifiable results.
Architecture & Performance Audit
We conduct a deep-dive analysis of your Cairo smart contracts and prover configuration. Our team identifies specific bottlenecks in transaction batching, recursive proof generation, and state management to establish a clear performance baseline.
Custom Optimization Strategy
Based on the audit, we design a targeted enhancement plan. This includes strategies for parallel proof computation, memory optimization, and Cairo-VM instruction tuning tailored to your specific application workload and gas cost targets.
Implementation & Integration
Our Cairo experts implement the agreed optimizations directly into your codebase or prover setup. We work within your development workflow, using version control and CI/CD pipelines to ensure seamless integration and maintainability.
Rigorous Testing & Benchmarking
Every optimization undergoes comprehensive testing. We benchmark proof generation speed, gas consumption, and computational resource usage against the initial baseline to validate performance gains before deployment.
Production Deployment Support
We assist your team in deploying the enhanced prover configuration to your staging and mainnet environments. This includes monitoring setup, performance logging, and documentation of the new system parameters.
Performance Monitoring & Iteration
Post-deployment, we provide guidance on monitoring key metrics like average proof time and hardware utilization. We offer retainer options for ongoing fine-tuning as your transaction volume and contract logic evolve.
Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common technical and commercial questions about accelerating your StarkNet Cairo prover performance.
Our optimization engagements typically achieve 2-5x faster proving times for standard Cairo programs, with some complex circuits seeing up to 10x improvement. Performance gains are validated through benchmark suites against your baseline before deployment.
Smart Contract Development
Secure, audited smart contracts built to your exact specifications.
We architect and deploy production-ready smart contracts that are secure by design. Every contract undergoes a multi-stage audit process, including automated analysis with Slither and manual review by our senior Solidity engineers, before deployment to mainnet.
