Why MidnightZK?

The Problem

  • Compliance data (carbon emissions, ESG, supply chain) needs tamper-proof evidence
  • Building blockchain infrastructure is expensive and requires deep expertise
  • Traditional auditing chains are slow, opaque, and fragile

Our Solution

  • One API call to anchor data with zero-knowledge proof on Midnight blockchain
  • Fully managed — no nodes to run, no wallets to manage, no crypto knowledge needed
  • Your raw data never leaves your system — only the hash is stored on-chain

How It Works

1

Submit

Send your data hash via our REST API. We accept any SHA-256 hash — you keep the original data.

2

Prove

MidnightZK generates a zero-knowledge proof and anchors it to the Midnight blockchain in a single transaction.

3

Verify

Receive a transaction hash and block explorer link. Anyone can independently verify your data's integrity on-chain.

Use Cases

Carbon & CBAM

Anchor carbon emission reports for EU CBAM compliance with immutable, verifiable on-chain proof.

👩‍⚕️

Long-Term Care

Prove home care service records — caregiver check-ins, service details, GPS — haven't been tampered with. No personal data exposed.

🔗

Supply Chain

Create tamper-proof records for every step in your supply chain — from origin to delivery.

💡

Proof of Creation

Timestamp your designs, code, or research on-chain. Prove you had it first — without revealing the content.

🔐

Trade Secret Protection

Establish cryptographic proof that confidential business information existed at a specific point in time — for litigation or compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions we hear most often.

Does my raw data go on the blockchain?+

No. Only the zero-knowledge proof is written on-chain. Your raw data never leaves your system. Even the hash is processed in memory and destroyed immediately after proof generation.

Do I need to understand blockchain or cryptography?+

No. MidnightZK handles all blockchain interactions. You only need to generate a SHA-256 hash (a standard operation in any programming language) and call a REST API.

How long does anchoring take?+

Typically 1–3 minutes from API call to on-chain confirmation, depending on network conditions. Result is delivered via webhook — no polling required.

What is the Midnight blockchain?+

Midnight is a Layer-1 blockchain built by Input Output Global (IOG), the creators of Cardano. It is designed specifically for data protection, with native zero-knowledge proof support. MidnightZK is an independent service built on top of Midnight.

Is MidnightZK affiliated with IOG or the Midnight Foundation?+

No. MidnightZK is an independent, community-built service. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Input Output Global or the Midnight Foundation.

How is duplicate anchoring prevented?+

Every anchor request must include an Idempotency-Key header (UUID v4). Re-submitting with the same key returns the original task without creating a duplicate chain transaction.

Is there a public verification endpoint?+

Yes. GET /{app_id}/verify/{hash} is public; no API key required. Anyone with the original data can re-hash and verify against the blockchain record.
