Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Goldsky, operated by Endless Sky Inc., provides data infrastructure that lets fintech and crypto companies read, stream and act on blockchain data. Its platform is organized around four products: Turbo Pipelines, streaming pipelines built on a Rust engine that support TypeScript transforms, dynamic tables, live data previews and sinks including webhooks, Postgres, ClickHouse, Kafka and S3; Subgraphs, zero-maintenance GraphQL endpoints with real-time indexing, factory contract support, historical data and compatibility with The Graph; Edge RPC, a single endpoint for live and archive access to EVM chains backed by a global edge CDN with millisecond failover, cross-node consensus, request hedging, circuit breakers and tip-of-chain caching; and Compose, an automation layer for connecting systems to blockchains with gas-sponsored wallets, chain forking, type-safe SDKs, TEE execution and execution traces.

The company positions the platform for workloads including wallets and payments, prediction markets, DeFi and trading, stablecoins, analytics and blockchain gaming, and markets solution areas such as proof of reserves, AML monitoring, deposit detection, settlement, reconciliation, tokenized assets and securities compliance. Goldsky states support for more than 160 chains, sub-second latency and SOC 2 Type II compliance. It also maintains open-source projects on GitHub, including Streamling, a Rust/WASM-pluggable data streaming runtime, and Goldsky Agent, a plugin that exposes its product surface to AI coding agents.

At the time of its 2022 seed round the company was focused on crypto-native customers such as DeFi protocols and automated the creation of data pipelines so customers could avoid parsing onchain smart contract data themselves.

Founding story

CEO Kevin Li met his co-founder while both worked in data engineering roles at Heap Analytics. Li later worked at Google and Meta before joining 0x Labs, where he helped build the decentralized exchange aggregator Matcha; there he found that obtaining usable onchain data, rather than engineering capacity, was the bottleneck to shipping features. He began building Goldsky to address the cost and difficulty of reading and processing data from deployed smart contracts.

Business model

Goldsky sells managed blockchain data infrastructure to developer and enterprise teams, offering self-serve signup with a free tier of $100 in credit and no credit card required, published pricing, an enterprise track, and round-the-clock support via Slack, Telegram and email.

Usage-based paid plans for its data products with a free entry tier ($100 in credits) and separately marketed enterprise offering.

Traction

The company cites $75B+ in total value locked powered by its platform, 2 GB/s+ of read/write throughput, 4 PB+ of crypto data stored and 500 TB+ of on-demand datasets, with support for over 160 chains. Named users and case-study references include Polymarket, Privy, Rainbow, 0x, Unichain, Plasma, M0, Phantom, Artemis, Blockworks, ApeChain, Ronin, Arweave, Stellar and Monad; earlier customers cited at seed stage included Arweave and POAP.

Latest developments

Goldsky has extended its product line with Compose for onchain automation and Edge RPC, added Solana support across Turbo Pipelines and Compose, and released the Goldsky Agent plugin plus a documentation MCP server so AI coding agents can build, deploy and debug pipelines, subgraphs and Compose apps. It also develops the open-source Streamling streaming runtime and a community plugin repository.

Market position

Goldsky competes with other onchain data providers, including The Graph, and differentiates on accurate real-time data rather than API- or SQL-query-only approaches. An investor in its seed round characterized the biggest competitive alternative as companies building blockchain data infrastructure in-house, describing the market as nascent.

The company emphasizes sub-second latency at scale, a Rust-based streaming engine, fault tolerance and persistence for always-on production workloads, compatibility with existing infrastructure, data models, APIs and tooling including The Graph-compatible subgraphs, coverage of more than 160 chains, native stablecoin support, and hands-on support. Its CEO has said real-time onchain data is technically difficult because transactions near the head of the chain are not immutable until confirmed.

Technology

The platform is built on a Rust streaming engine (open-sourced in part as Streamling, a data streaming runtime with Rust and WASM plugins), supports TypeScript and SQL transforms, dynamic tables and local development, and delivers data to sinks such as Postgres, ClickHouse, Kafka, S3 and webhooks. Subgraphs expose GraphQL APIs with custom schemas and historical data. Edge RPC runs on a global edge CDN with automatic failover, retries, cross-node consensus and caching, and Compose executes onchain automation with gas-sponsored wallets, TEE execution and deterministic guarantees. Goldsky also ships a documentation MCP server and agent skills for AI coding tools.

Go-to-market

Goldsky uses a developer-led, self-serve motion with free credits, public documentation, build guides and case studies, complemented by enterprise sales, white-glove onboarding and open-source distribution on GitHub and through AI agent plugin marketplaces.

Developers and engineering teams at crypto and fintech companies, including wallets and payment applications, prediction markets, DeFi protocols and trading venues, stablecoin issuers, analytics providers and blockchain games; at seed stage the customer base was crypto-native companies such as DeFi protocols.

Geography

The team was fully remote as of 2022, with roughly half of its eight employees located in Canada.

History

Goldsky was founded in October 2021. In September 2022 it announced a $20 million seed round led by Felicis and Dragonfly Capital, taking total funding to $22 million; at that point the team consisted of eight engineers working remotely, about half based in Canada, and the company said it intended to grow to roughly 15 employees. The product line has since expanded beyond indexing pipelines and subgraphs to include Edge RPC and the Compose onchain automation product, along with AI agent tooling.
