About Trustless Work

Transforming Escrows for the Modern Economy

At Trustless Work, we solve one of the most critical challenges in global payments: trust. By leveraging blockchain technology, we provide configurable, scalable, and transparent escrow infrastructure that eliminates costly intermediaries and complex processes, empowering platforms to build trustless payment flows with ease.


Our Vision

To drive the new economy forward by building a foundation of trust, scalability, and transparency in global payments.


Our Mission

To solve trust in global payments by providing configurable, scalable, and transparent escrow infrastructure and tools for the new economy.


Why Escrows Matter

At its core, an escrow is a neutral and secure way to hold funds while something else happens—whether it’s transferring a house, delivering a product, or completing a project.

In traditional payment systems, trust is built through:

  • Costly Intermediaries: Banks, lawyers, or brokers.

  • Complex Processes: Lengthy, manual procedures.

  • Limited Transparency: Little visibility into where funds are and why delays occur.

These barriers slow innovation, increase costs, and limit accessibility for businesses and individuals alike.


How Trustless Work Changes the Game

We provide a new way to manage trust with blockchain-powered smart escrows. Our platform enables platforms and developers to:

  • Configure escrow workflows for any use case.

  • Scale payment processes with an API-first approach.

  • Ensure transparency and fairness with blockchain technology.

By reducing the time, cost, and technical barriers traditionally associated with escrows, we enable businesses to focus on innovation while ensuring trust and security.


What We Offer

  1. Escrow-as-a-Service Seamlessly integrate escrow workflows into any platform.

  2. Developer-Friendly Tools API-first design, open-source templates, and testnet resources.

  3. Diverse Applications Supporting industries from marketplaces to crowdfunding, real estate, and trade finance.
