Space and Time (SxT) is a ZK coprocessor specifically designed to enable onchain smart contracts and AI agents to trustlessly query and process large offchain datasets, providing data-rich context that significantly enhances the developer design space and Web3 application functionality.

SxT significantly enhances the functionality of onchain smart contracts and AI agents by trustlessly integrating them with offchain data warehousing and compute capabilities. 

The founding team is composed of senior leaders from enterprise-grade Web2 data management giants, such as Teradata and AWS, as well as Web3 stalwarts, such as Chainlink and zkSync.

Chainlink and Microsoft’s early investments in the protocol, as well as their continued product partnerships, suggest strong product-market-fits in both Web3 and Web2.

Smart contracts enable trustless automation, but they’re limited in the type of calculations they can perform. Even simple queries used to execute basic business logic can’t be done with a smart contract, let alone queries that generate larger analytic insights. You can run these queries in a data warehouse, but today’s data warehouses are centralized, so the query results can’t be trusted by (integrated with) smart contracts.
