Infrastructure for the onchain economy

Ukiyo Network is an engineering firm building AI-powered infrastructure for teams operating across chains. We ship protocols, tools, and autonomous agents that hold up under real conditions — real capital, real chains, real users.

The Company

What Ukiyo is

An engineering firm building infrastructure for intelligent, cross-chain finance.

Ukiyo is an engineering company building infrastructure that helps teams operate confidently in decentralized finance.

The onchain economy has grown faster than the tooling around it. Capital sits across a dozen chains, yield opportunities shift by the hour, and most teams still manage operations through a browser and a spreadsheet. We believe that gap — between what is possible and what is practical — is where the next generation of infrastructure gets built.

Our work spans three connected domains. In Web3, we build protocol-level infrastructure: smart contract systems, onchain data pipelines, and developer tooling designed to be used, not just deployed. In DeFi, we work on the primitives that make capital efficient — routing, risk, and execution. In AI, we build agents that operate inside those systems with visible logic and clear constraints.

We are an engineering company first. Every product decision is measured against whether it holds up under real conditions. We ship working products — and we let the work speak.

Capabilities

Three disciplines, one practice

We work across the full stack of onchain finance — protocol to product.

01 · Web3

Protocol Infrastructure

Smart contract systems, cross-chain messaging, and developer tooling designed to be used in production.

  • Solidity & Rust contracts
  • Cross-chain routing
  • TypeScript SDKs
02 · DeFi

Capital Efficiency

Primitives for routing, risk, and execution — the plumbing that makes capital flow safely between chains.

  • Liquidity routing
  • Risk engines
  • Execution layers
03 · AI

Autonomous Agents

Agents that operate inside onchain systems with visible logic, clear constraints, and onchain guardrails.

  • Decision systems
  • Onchain guardrails
  • Auditable execution

Projects

What we've built & what's next

Every project falls into one of two states — complete and live, or actively being built.

Production · Live

Ukiyo Core

Cross-chain infrastructure & smart contract layer

Ukiyo Core is our production infrastructure layer. It provides the smart contract primitives, onchain data pipelines, and cross-chain routing that power the rest of the Ukiyo ecosystem.

Built on Ethereum, Base, and Arbitrum. Audited, tested, and running in production. This is the foundation everything else is built on.

Ukiyo Agents

AI agents for autonomous DeFi operations

Ukiyo Agents is our AI layer currently in active development. It lets a team define a strategy once — its rules, limits, and target chains — and have an intelligent agent handle the execution.

Each agent runs with visible logic, clear constraints, and onchain guardrails a user can inspect and override. Currently in private prototype.
