What Sentio does

Sentio is a developer-first Web3 observability and data infrastructure company headquartered in Seattle (Washington, USA), operating as Sentio XYZ Inc. The company provides a unified platform for real-time blockchain indexing, analytics, alerting, debugging, and simulation across more than 42 blockchain networks — including EVM chains, Sui, Aptos, IOTA, Fuel, Solana, and Movement. Its core technology is an event-driven processing architecture with a TypeScript SDK (Sentio Processor) that auto-generates type bindings from contract ABIs and is claimed to deliver up to 100x faster parallelism than traditional indexer frameworks, complemented by a hosted Subgraph runtime positioned as a faster migration path from The Graph protocol. AI-powered features (AI SQL generation, AI processor generation and diagnostics, AI chat for transaction explanation, and Code Intelligence semantic search) are integrated into the platform as productivity layers over the indexed blockchain data.

The platform serves Web3 developers, DeFi protocols (including named references such as Coinbase for cbETH monitoring and PancakeSwap for stablecoin pool analytics), wallets, trading bots, MEV researchers, and an emerging segment of AI-agent builders that require real-time blockchain data. The product portfolio spans Sentio Platform modules (Indexer, Analytics, Alerts, Debugger, Simulator, Code Intelligence, Collaboration, Integration), Sentio Dash (a serverless, permissionless analytics platform built on ClickHouse), Data Studio (curated SQL-accessible datasets), dedicated RPC nodes, and the OBIB Open Blockchain Indexer Benchmark. The company also holds a unique position in the Sui ecosystem, where its Dash and Debugger products are supported by the Sui Foundation and Mysten Labs.

Sentio operates a product-led and community-led go-to-market model: developers self-register at app.sentio.xyz, access a freemium tier, and upgrade to paid subscriptions or usage-based RPC billing. Revenue streams include self-serve monthly subscriptions, usage-based pricing for archive/enterprise RPC nodes, and managed enterprise services. The company is venture-backed following a $6.4M seed round in February 2023 led by Lightspeed Venture Partners with participation from Hashkey Capital, Canonical Crypto, Essence VC, and GSR Ventures. Co-founders are Fuyao Zhao (CEO) and Chongzhe Li, with the engineering team drawn from Google, LinkedIn, Microsoft, and TikTok.

Core offering

Sentio provides an AI-powered, developer-first Web3 data infrastructure and observability platform for decentralized applications. The platform delivers real-time blockchain indexing, analytics dashboards, transaction debugging, alerting, simulation, and dedicated RPC nodes across 42+ blockchain networks (EVM, Sui, Aptos, IOTA, Fuel, Solana, Movement, and more). Customers access the platform via a self-serve SaaS model with a TypeScript SDK, SQL/GraphQL APIs, hosted Subgraph support, and AI features for SQL and processor code generation.

Product overview

Sentio is a developer-first, AI-powered modular Web3 data infrastructure platform. The core Platform provides real-time blockchain indexing, analytics, alerting, and debugging capabilities across multiple chains including EVM (Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, BSC, zkSync, etc.), Sui, Aptos, IOTA, and Fuel. The product portfolio centers on the Sentio Platform (Indexer, Analytics, Alerts, Debugger, Simulator, Code Intelligence, Collaboration, Integration modules) complemented by Sentio Dash - a serverless analytics dashboard platform. The SDK enables TypeScript-based processor development, while Data Studio provides curated datasets. Subgraph support enables migration from The Graph. The platform processes over 6 billion events serving $24B in Total Value Locked, with 3,000 users and 300 Query QPS capacity.

Direct peers

• Moralis: Web3 development platform with APIs, SDKs, and real-time data across EVM chains. Comparable multi-chain developer data infrastructure offering to Sentio.
• Alchemy: Full-stack blockchain developer platform providing RPC, indexing, and analytics across many chains. Direct overlap with Sentio's multi-chain RPC nodes, data APIs, and developer tooling.
• QuickNode: Multi-chain RPC node provider and developer platform. Direct peer for Sentio's RPC Nodes product and broader blockchain API infrastructure.
• Covalent: Unified blockchain data API providing indexed, queryable historical data across many chains. Competes with Sentio's Data Studio and GraphQL/SQL data access layers.
• Goldsky: Web3 data infrastructure offering subgraphs, mirror pipelines, and real-time data APIs. Directly competes with Sentio's hosted subgraph and indexing offerings.
• Infura: Consensys-owned RPC node infrastructure and developer APIs for Ethereum and other chains. Direct overlap with Sentio's dedicated RPC endpoints and node infrastructure.
• Tenderly: Smart contract monitoring, debugging, alerting, and simulation platform. Closest peer to Sentio's Debugger, Simulator, and Alerts modules.
