Brevis

Brevis is a highly efficient ZK coprocessor and zkVM that empowers smart contracts to read from the full historical on-chain data across all supported blockchains and run customizable computations in a completely trust-free way. Developers build application circuits with the Brevis SDK (available in Go and TypeScript), implementing a Data Access Module to specify the historical blockchain data needed, an App Circuit for the computation logic, and an App Contract to receive ZK-verified or coChain-verified results on-chain. Brevis also operates ProverNet, an open marketplace for zero-knowledge proofs, and Pico, an open-source high-performance zkVM. Backed by Polychain.

Brevis is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Zk Coprocessor, Zero-Knowledge Proofs, zkVM, and Blockchain.

Brevis’ developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, and 8 more developer resources.
