Onboarding 10M+ Python developers through native Python–based smart contract development using a custom compiler that leverages an AST parser to transpile Python programs into EVM bytecode.
Zerothon is an AI-powered smart contract development platform that enables developers to build, compile, and deploy smart contracts using Python, without writing Solidity directly.
Our goal is to lower the barrier to Web3 development by bringing smart contracts closer to a language millions of developers already know.
Smart contract development today:
Has a steep learning curve (Solidity + tooling)
Is error-prone for beginners
Lacks intuitive, guided contract generation
Is inaccessible to Python-first developers
This significantly slows Web3 adoption.
Zerothon provides a production-ready Python smart contract ecosystem, combining:
A Monaco-based IDE
An OpenZeppelin-style Contract Wizard
A custom Python → EVM compiler
AI-assisted development
One-click deployment and interaction
Developers can focus on logic and security, not boilerplate or tooling complexity.
Step-by-step smart contract creation
Supports Token, NFT, Vault, Governance
Modular security components:
