Webacy provides a due-diligence API suite that scores wallets, tokens and smart contracts for risk, along with an SDK for wallet-side checks such as verifying permit signatures and surfacing risky token approvals.
It announced a $4 million seed round in February 2023 led by gmjp, with participation from Mozilla Ventures and Quantstamp.
Innovation Matrix Assessment
Ships API and SDK for pre-transaction risk checks; limited detail on recent releases.
Gives wallet and exchange teams programmatic risk scores to block risky transactions.
$4M seed (2023) and ecosystem documentation listings; no recent funding found.
A risk-scoring API is useful but resembles other web3 threat-intel offerings.
Efficacy evidence not independently verified.
Crypto scams and drainer attacks will likely persist.
Why CISOs Should Care
Teams building wallets or exchanges can add transaction-risk screening without developing their own threat intel.
What Makes It Different
Delivers risk scoring at the wallet-signing moment via SDK.
The Matrix Verdict
55/100 — INCREMENTAL INNOVATOR
Webacy is an Incremental Innovator: a practical risk API with modest, early-stage evidence of adoption.
Editorial Note: Claims vs. Verified Findings
HQ location and founding year were not confirmed in sources found, so they are left blank. A company claim of $8M total raised is unverified; the $4M seed is press-reported.
