Covalent uses big-data methods to turn hundreds of billions of data points into usable insights-supporting investors with actionable intelligence and helping developers direct resources toward the highest-value objectives inside their organizations.

Rather than relying on a few chains and manually tracking down information, Covalent collects data from many different sources, such as nodes, chains, and data feeds from across dozens of providers. The Covalent API then delivers tailored information to users based on their wallet address, including both current and historical investment performance for all categories of digital assets. It also serves this information quickly and consistently, bundling the relevant data through a single API interface.

Key Highlights

Complete Granular Visibility

Covalent indexes and decodes entire blockchains and exposes them to developers through one unified API. This provides visibility into billions of blockchain data points for every individual wallet.

Multiple Blockchains Supported

The same API supports 7 different blockchains. With Covalent, developers can reduce downtime to market from 3 weeks down to only a few hours.

A Marketplace for Use-Cases

Developers can build their own API endpoints for their applications and publish them in the marketplace so others can use them.

Key Technical Facts

Complete Granular Visibility

Covalent indexes and decodes entire blockchains and makes them available to developers through a unified API. This provides visibility into billions of blockchain data points for each wallet.

No code solution

Covalent is designed so developers don’t need to write indexing code or learn the complexities of blockchain data structures, making it accessible even for non-technical users.

Single API for multiple blockchains

The Covalent API standardizes the differences between multiple blockchains behind a single unified interface. Developers can move to a multi-chain environment without needing to study uncommon technical details of each network.

Primer Transformation engine

A proprietary transformation language inspired by the MongoDB query language. With Primer, developers can pick the specific fields they want and further aggregate the data to match their needs. Transformations run during query time in real time.

Enriched Decoded data

Decoded data is provided in a developer-ready format, without requiring users to find ABIs or write their own custom decoding logic.

Decentralized Indexing-Querying middleware

The Covalent network includes a decentralized layer for storage and computation, offering low fees and high throughput.
