Introducing nxyz, a way to unlock lightning-fast access to blockchain data

Though there has been an explosion in web3 investment and developer activity in recent years, it remains a challenge to parse and program with blockchain data. People say that web3 is going to take over the world, but today’s infrastructure makes it hard for blockchain applications to reach real scale.
Earlier this year, the team at Neeva – the user-first, private search engine – sat down to think hard about this problem. We came up with a solution and realized it could unlock web3’s potential, warranting it to standalone from Neeva.
Today, I’m thrilled to introduce nxyz to the world. nxyz is a multi-chain indexing product suite that exposes real-time blockchain data through low-latency APIs. Our goal is to provide best-in-class data infrastructure so that developers can spend more time on building user-facing applications, not bringing up infrastructure.
We are no strangers to big data infrastructure. nxyz is made up of web3 enthusiasts and distributed systems veterans who built the early infrastructure of Google Search and Ads serving systems. We tap into the work of our search technologists who have built full stack, real time indexers at scale for billions of data points.
No product on the market can guarantee the speed, uptime, throughput, and flexibility that we can. Our APIs provide access to common entities like NFTs, fungible tokens, and balances. And if your needs are more complex, you can specify a custom indexing pattern for any contract. Regardless of your need, our blazing-fast, multi-chain indexing infrastructure can serve as your foundation for building in web3.
That’s not all. We’re thrilled to announce our $40M Series A led by Paradigm, with participation from Greylock Partners, Sequoia Capital, Coinbase Ventures, 20VC, and prominent web3 angels like Balaji Srinivasan, Jaynti (JD) Kanani, Jing Wang, Packy McCormick, Surojit Chatterjee, Ryan Selkis, and others. We are thrilled to partner with them on our mission: to make blockchain accessible for web3 companies to quickly innovate, experiment and build the next generation of apps and services.
But don’t just take our word for it. Take a look at our API docs at docs.n.xyz, and sign up for our beta to get an API key to try out our product for yourself.
While we are currently in beta, we are excited to welcome our initial customers so far who are helping us bring speed of access, transparency and development to web3.
Beta users can now experience how nxyz makes blockchains look like well-behaved, performant APIs and streams of data. If you are interested in fast access to blockchain data, sign up for our beta and we will be in touch.
