Ledger is core, not incidental
Balances, holds, and settlement are central to your product — correctness has to be a platform guarantee.
Design partner program
Design partners are a small group of teams building serious value-movement systems who work with us closely during private preview — bringing a real workload, getting direct access to the engineering team, and influencing what the engine becomes.
A mutual commitment
Design partnership works because both sides put something real in. Here's the exchange, stated plainly.
What you get
Talk directly to the people building the engine — not a ticket queue.
Your workload's needs weigh directly on what we prioritize next.
Evaluate what's next before it's broadly available.
Help modeling your ledger and wiring the SDK and gateway surfaces.
Correctness and recovery artifacts you can take to architecture and security review.
What we ask
Actual value-movement patterns from your system — not a toy example.
Tell us what works, what's missing, and what would block adoption.
Someone on your side who owns the evaluation and can make decisions.
Participate in controlled recovery and correctness exercises.
A working cadence across the engagement, not a one-off review.
How the engagement works
A design partnership moves through four stages. Each one has a clear purpose, so both sides know whether to continue.
We confirm the workload is a fit for a ledger-first engine and that the timing works for both sides.
Architecture review of your value-movement model, mapped onto the write path and reservation lifecycle.
Wire a representative workload through SDK and gateway surfaces and observe recovery behavior.
A working cadence where your findings shape fixes and roadmap priorities.
Who it's for
Balances, holds, and settlement are central to your product — correctness has to be a platform guarantee.
Concrete value-movement patterns and volume you can bring — enough to stress the model meaningfully.
A named technical owner and a team ready to give candid feedback across the engagement.
