We Build Next-Generation Verifiable Compute Technologies

The team at ICME does the deep research and implementation in cryptographic systems to solve real-world problems with verifiable computation.

From zero-knowledge proofs, lookups, and lattice cryptography to folding schemes, ICME works at the cutting edge of technology — singularly focused on supporting the critical missions of our users and partners.

Widely adoptable

  • Verifiable compute should run everywhere: Our decentralized ZKP network (NovaNet) and proof system run fast in browsers, on blockchains, IoT devices, and other constrained environments.
  • Developer-first: Write in JavaScript, Rust, Python, and more — then compile to NovaNet’s zkVM.
  • Chain-agnostic proofs: Host proofs and verifiers on any blockchain — no L1/L2 tribalism.
  • Composed by design: Use Kinic + NovaNet together so every retrieval and compute step carries a proof — from data ingestion to model output.

Use cases

  • Zero-knowledge machine learning (zkML) & verifiable computation: Prove model steps and post-process logic with NovaNet. Kinic uses NovaNet's zkML tooling to achieve verifiable AI memory.
  • Scaling web3: Proof-carrying agents, cross-chain verifiers, and portable provers—without L1/L2 lock-in.
  • Privacy protection: Selective disclosure of data with verifiable outputs.
  • Verifiable agents & AI memory: Multi-agent workflows that share Kinic memory; each query/response comes with a cryptographic receipt.
  • Audit & compliance: Tamper-evident logs and on-chain attestations for regulated workflows.

Pioneering Tech

Traditional bespoke circuits don’t scale across diverse apps. That’s why we built ZKEngine and a prover network that supports specialized provers for various tasks.

Our users

  • High-growth startups adding ZK to real products without overhauling their stack.
  • Web3 teams reusing existing code in our zkVM and shipping cross-chain verifiers.
  • Enterprises adopting provable AI memory and compute for security, auditability, and compliance.
  • Agent builders & researchers who need proof-carrying retrieval, planning, and tool use.
