Webacy

Webacy is a blockchain risk intelligence platform that gives developers, protocols, and institutions the tools to assess and respond to on-chain risk in real time. Founded in 2021 by Maika Isogawa -- a Stanford alumna and former Microsoft cybersecurity engineer -- the San Francisco-based company began as a consumer wallet security product before expanding into an enterprise-grade risk API used across Solana, EVM chains, TON, Bitcoin, and several other networks.

From Wallet Safety Tool to Risk Infrastructure

Webacy's origin was in self-custody security. The early product addressed a concrete problem: billions of dollars in crypto assets were stolen or permanently lost in 2022 through exploits, phishing, and user error, yet the tools available to ordinary wallet holders were minimal. Webacy's initial consumer safety suite gave self-custody users four protective capabilities: Wallet Watch for real-time transaction monitoring with SMS and email alerts; a Backup Wallet feature for recovering access to assets without the original keys or seed phrase; a Panic Button that bulk-transfers all assets to a designated safe wallet in seconds during an active exploit; and a crypto inheritance mechanism that routes assets to a specified beneficiary.

These tools were designed as a layer on top of wallets users already held -- compatible with MetaMask, Phantom, and others -- rather than as a replacement for existing wallet infrastructure.

Enterprise API Platform: Webacy DD

As the market for on-chain compliance and risk tooling matured, Webacy expanded its focus toward institutional and developer customers with Webacy DD, its enterprise API product. DD.xyz aggregates Webacy's risk models into a set of modular, purpose-built endpoints covering wallets, tokens, smart contracts, transactions, stablecoins, and vaults.

The platform's risk methodology assigns each entity a numerical score from 0 to 100, paired with a letter grade on an eleven-band A+ to F scale. Scoring draws on hundreds of independent risk factors spanning security, financial, operational, and compliance domains. Webacy's in-house risk engines combine real-time on-chain data with off-chain context, updating per block with streaming data ingestion. Published response times for wallet screening and contract analysis run below 500 milliseconds.

The API surface is organized into several functional layers:

Threat and due diligence: Wallet screening against sanctions lists, blacklisted addresses, spam and sybil accounts, and AML counterparty exposure. Smart contract analysis covering source code verification, bytecode inspection, and exploit pattern detection. Transaction simulation and EIP-712 signature scanning. URL phishing detection.

Trading intelligence: Token holder distribution analysis with sniper and bundler detection. Pool OHLCV data with embedded risk assessment. Trending token discovery with liquidity analysis. A simplified Solana-optimized token analysis endpoint designed specifically for the throughput and data structure of Solana's DEX ecosystem.

Asset monitoring: Vault risk ratings for ERC-4626 compliant vaults. Stablecoin depeg monitoring across more than 600 tokens, updated every twenty minutes, with webhook delivery of depeg events. Real-world asset structural health checks. Holder concentration indexing.

A modular architecture -- introduced after an earlier version returned all 400-plus risk signals in a single response -- packages these signals into use-case-specific bundles: bridge and DEX monitoring, AML and compliance, AI agent risk controls, and others. Integration is available via REST API, TypeScript SDK, webhooks with HMAC signing, CLI tooling, and a Model Context Protocol connector for AI systems.

Solana Integration

Solana is a first-class supported network within Webacy's risk infrastructure. The platform delivers real-time risk scoring, token-level safety signals, wallet screening, and transaction analysis on Solana. The holder analysis endpoint is cited in Webacy's documentation as having been used by Solana DEXs, trading bots, and AI agents -- a reflection of the endpoint's practical fit with Solana's high-throughput account model and SPL token standard. A dedicated simplified token analysis endpoint is explicitly Solana-optimized, designed for applications that need fast assessments without parsing the full risk signal set.

Webacy was named in a joint response to a U.S. Treasury request for information on illicit finance risk, filed by the Solana Policy Institute, Paradigm, and the DeFi Education Fund, as a tool helping identify and mitigate financial risk across digital assets. It also appears in Newton Foundation's widely-cited map of the digital asset compliance landscape under "Onchain Threat Intelligence," alongside firms such as Chainalysis, Elliptic, and TRM Labs.

Supported Networks

Beyond Solana, Webacy's risk intelligence covers Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, Polygon, Optimism, Arbitrum, Base, TON, Bitcoin, Stellar, Hedera, Sei, and Sui. The company frames its approach as chain-agnostic: consistent, explainable risk scores delivered in the same format regardless of the underlying network. Webacy expanded to TON in 2024 and announced a significant upgrade to its Sui risk engine in 2025, adding support for Sui's currency standard and sophisticated detection of malicious token behavior.

Funding and Background

Webacy has raised just over $5 million across a pre-seed round and a $4 million seed round closed in February 2023. The seed round was led by gmjp, with participation from Gary Vaynerchuk, AJ Vaynerchuk, Mozilla Ventures, Soma Capital, DG Daiwa Ventures, Quantstamp, CEAS Investments, Dreamers, and Miraise. Founder and CEO Maika Isogawa has framed the company's mission around making self-custody safe for mainstream users while providing the compliance infrastructure that regulated institutions need to operate in on-chain finance.

AI Agent Risk Controls

A more recent product focus is risk intelligence for autonomous AI agents making on-chain decisions. Webacy has published an AI Agent Crypto Control Kit -- a framework for embedding Webacy's APIs into AI agent pipelines so that agents can screen wallets, evaluate tokens, and assess transactions before executing. As AI-driven trading bots and DeFi agents have grown in prevalence on Solana and other chains, Webacy positions its API layer as the safety check between an agent's decision logic and its on-chain actions. Integration is also available via the Model Context Protocol, enabling LLM-based tools to query Webacy's risk endpoints directly.

Ecosystem Position

Webacy occupies an infrastructure role at the intersection of consumer safety tooling and institutional compliance. Its API has been integrated by Octav and other analytics platforms. The platform offers a no-code web dashboard at DD.xyz for teams that need access to the risk assessment interface without direct API integration, alongside the full developer API for teams building risk checks into wallets, DEXs, lending protocols, or compliance systems.
