About Fermah
Fermah is a protocol-infrastructure company building tools that let smart contracts and applications execute off-chain workflows without human operators or centralized servers. Fermah Kernel composes and runs deterministic workflows in sandboxed environments, then delivers cryptographically verified results on-chain. Fermah Froben is its two-sided ZK proof-generation marketplace, matching compute suppliers with developers and protocols that need fast, reliable, cost-efficient proving across proof systems, chains, and VMs. The company also builds Flashcast Social, a private-beta prediction-market product powered by Kernel.
