The engineering held up; the NFT market cooled. Shipped, learned, moved on.

The brief[01] Problem

The NFT market splits informed traders from everyone else. The data exists — but it's scattered across marketplaces, block explorers and a thousand Twitter threads.

Datagate was built to close that gap. We pulled marketplace feeds, on-chain history and social signal into a single terminal — fast enough to act on, structured enough to trust. The brief was blunt: an optimised platform for traders, by traders.

Solve the gap between uninformed and informed trading in the NFT industry.— Product principle

What the client said

Always a pleasure. Commitment and technical expertise, consistently meets deadlines, communicates well, and gives precise updates. His input has been valuable — more than happy to work with him again.
