Certora

Certora is a smart-contract security company whose core product is the Certora Prover, a state-of-the-art automated formal-verification engine that checks every possible contract state and execution path to find critical vulnerabilities in smart contracts running on EVM-based chains, Solana, Stellar (Soroban), and Sui. Developers write rules in the Certora Verification Language (CVL) and submit verification jobs to Certora's cloud from the command line using the open-source certora-cli (certoraRun) tool, which authenticates with a personal access key. Alongside the Prover, Certora offers the Gambit mutation-testing tool, expert manual audits, and verification contests, and reports protecting over $100B in total value locked across major DeFi protocols. This profile was surfaced as an Electric Capital portfolio company and enriched by the API Evangelist pipeline.

Certora is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Security, Formal Verification, Smart Contracts, and Blockchain.

Certora’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, CLI, and 12 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/certora: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
