Noves

Noves translates raw blockchain transaction data into structured, human-readable information across 110+ chains — so developers, institutions, and applications can understand what a transaction actually did without parsing opcodes, event logs, or protocol-specific ABIs.

The Problem It Solves

On-chain transaction data is notoriously opaque. A swap on a DEX, a staking deposit, or an NFT mint each produces a different shape of raw calldata and event logs. Developers who need to display transaction history, support accounting exports, or screen transactions before signing must either build bespoke decoders for every protocol or rely on fragile, chain-specific scripts. Noves replaces that per-chain, per-protocol engineering work with a single API integration that covers the entire multichain surface.

How It Works

Noves's core mechanism is a classification engine that ingests raw transaction events — logs, function calls, metadata URIs — and maps them against a library of known protocol templates. The output is a standardized schema: a transaction type (e.g., "Add Liquidity", "Staked", "NFT Mint"), the assets flowing in and out from the perspective of a given wallet address, English-language descriptions, and enriched metadata including pricing.

The API is perspective-based: pass in a wallet address and a transaction hash, and Noves returns what that transaction meant from that wallet's point of view. When a new protocol launches and its transactions match existing templates, the data flows through automatically — no additional engineering required.

Data delivery runs through three channels:

• Synchronous REST endpoints for historical lookups and one-off queries
• Webhooks with HMAC-SHA256 payload signatures and exponential-backoff retry (from 1 minute up to 12 hours)
• WebSocket subscriptions for real-time streaming with 1-hour message queuing

Large historical data jobs use an asynchronous processing model: the API returns a 425 status during processing and delivers results via webhook upon completion. Billing uses a compute-unit model where operation cost scales with complexity.

Key Products and Features

Translate API is the flagship product. It classifies transactions across 110+ networks and returns typed, human-readable outputs. Supported chains include EVM networks (Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, and others), Solana and the broader SVM ecosystem, Bitcoin and other UTXO chains, Move VMs (Aptos and Sui), Cosmos, Tron, XRP Ledger, Polkadot, and the Canton (DAML) network. A single integration covers the full multichain surface; developers never write contract-specific parsing code again.

Foresight API handles pre-execution transaction simulation and security screening. Before a user signs a transaction, Foresight simulates the outcome, generates a human-readable description of what will happen, and screens against sanctions lists, known malicious contracts, and scam tokens. Noves embedded this capability natively into Mint Blockchain's SDK and JSON-RPC endpoints in April 2025, giving Mint's more than 6 million wallets pre-sign safety across over 100 dApps. In a reported early test, human-readable transaction previews reduced support inquiries related to transaction confusion by over 40%.

Institutional Data App is a self-hosted deployment option for organizations operating on private or permissioned blockchains. The app runs inside the institution's own infrastructure perimeter and feeds classified data directly into reporting frameworks, reconciliation workflows, and compliance outputs. Noves holds SOC 2 Type II certification for this offering, covering security, availability, and confidentiality controls.

Solana Account History (Jobs API) is a dedicated endpoint for retrieving complete transaction histories from Solana wallets. Solana's account model — with dozens of associated token accounts, including closed ones whose records are not returned by standard RPC calls — makes full history retrieval significantly more complex than on EVM chains. Noves's /txs/job endpoint handles active accounts, closed accounts, recursive discovery, and deduplication automatically, returning a fully reconciled, human-readable history without requiring developers to implement the iteration logic themselves.

Real-Time Alerts deliver multi-channel notifications (Slack, email, SMS, webhooks) with configurable suppression modes including cooldown periods, threshold crossing, and delta-based triggers — covering balance changes, transfer events, and protocol-specific activity.

Pricing API provides token price data with raw, hourly, and daily OHLC intervals, including pool-based pricing for DEX liquidity positions and historical price lookups.

Supported Assets

Noves is chain-agnostic rather than token-specific. The Translate API covers native token transfers, ERC-20 and SPL token movements, NFT mints and transfers, liquidity pool positions, staking deposits and rewards, and protocol-specific operations across all supported networks. Pricing data covers both fungible tokens and DEX pool positions.

Security and Audits

The institutional deployment carries SOC 2 Type II certification. Webhook deliveries use HMAC-SHA256 signatures for payload authentication. The Foresight API includes active security screening — sanctions list checks, malicious contract detection, and scam token identification — before transactions are signed.

Team and History

Noves was founded in May 2021. The CEO and co-founder goes by @NovesBen publicly, and has participated in discussions about institutional blockchain infrastructure, including the Canton Network's selective disclosure model and how Noves built its indexing architecture inside Canton's privacy constraints rather than around them. As of mid-2026, the company is actively expanding into institutional and private-chain infrastructure alongside its public-chain API business.

Ecosystem Integrations and Solana Fit

Noves is available as an add-on in the QuickNode marketplace — both the Translate API and the Solana Account History product are listed as standalone integrations. Blockscout, the open-source blockchain explorer, integrates Noves natively: a Noves-enabled Blockscout instance displays a transaction type classification and an asset flows tab on wallet and transaction pages, translating raw event data into descriptions like "Staked 1 ETH and claimed 100 USDC in rewards." Any blockchain running Blockscout can enable the integration with a Noves API key.

For Solana specifically, Noves addresses the ecosystem's indexing complexity directly. Solana's associated token account model requires recursive account discovery that the native RPC infrastructure does not handle automatically. Noves's dedicated Jobs API abstracts that complexity, delivering a de-duplicated, paginated, human-readable transaction history in a single call. As the SVM ecosystem expands beyond mainnet Solana to networks like Eclipse and SOON, Noves's multichain architecture means those chains are covered within the same integration — no additional work on the developer's side.
