Description
ICME is developing zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) tools for mass adoption through a decentralized ZKP network called NovaNet, designed to operate efficiently in various environments like browsers, blockchains, and IoT devices. Their technology includes a highly portable zkVM that supports common programming languages such as Javascript, Rust, and Python, and is not tied to any specific L1 or L2 proving system, allowing for broader application and faster upgrades. Key use cases for ICME's technology include zero-knowledge machine learning (zkML), verifiable computation, scaling Web3, and enhancing privacy protection. The company has pioneered the ZKEngine and a ZK virtual machine, incorporating advanced techniques like folding schemes and lookup arguments, and contributed to the first SuperNova implementation. ICME serves a diverse client base, including high-growth startups, Web3 projects, and enterprises looking to integrate ZKP technology into their operations.
