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.
