TL;DR

Gelato is a launch collaborator on zkSync Era!
Gelato will soon™ deploy Automate and Web3 Functions, bringing smart contract automation and off-chain data/computation to developers building on zkSync Era.

Why are we excited about the zkSync Era?

zkSync Era is a next-generation Layer 2 protocol scaling Ethereum’s security via zero-knowledge cryptography, offering the Ethereum experience with lower fees.

As a ZK-rollup, zkSync Era is a trustless protocol using validity proofs to deliver scalable and low-cost Ethereum transactions. Computation and data storage occur off-chain, while transactions are verified on Ethereum mainnet for security parity. Key highlights include:

Hyperscalability: designed to process massive numbers of transactions without compromising security or cost.
Native Account Abstraction: vastly improves web3 user onboarding.
EVM features preserved: full composability and compatibility with Ethereum smart contracts.

Build with Gelato on zkSync Era

Developers can expect to see both Automate and Web3 Functions on zkSync Era soon!

Why Gelato Automate?

Reliable, developer-friendly & decentralized smart contract automation

With over 80% market share, Gelato is the most widely used decentralized automation protocol. Smart contracts cannot self-execute; Gelato Automate ensures contract logic is triggered when conditions are met. On zkSync, Automate pairs with native Account Abstraction, enabling dApps where end users can delegate Gelato to interact autonomously on their behalf—abstracting away blockchain complexity for a seamless UX.

Why Gelato Web3 Functions?

Fetch any off-chain API and run custom compute to build serverless web3 apps

Web3 Functions are decentralized cloud functions connecting smart contracts to off-chain data and computation. Developers can fetch data from any API, validate and compute off-chain, then automate transactions on-chain. This removes the limitations of isolated smart contracts, enabling new web3 use cases that feel natural to everyday users.
