Our vision is to make zero-knowledge proofs the default substrate for all computation.
Do you want me to play a role in bringing this vision to fruition?
Fermah is the universal proof generation layer.
It functions as a marketplace, where the supply side consists of machines such as GPUs and FPGAs. On the demand side, Fermah can generate proofs for any instance in which ZK is used.
Fermah is bringing moon math to the masses.
The a16z CSX fund and Lemniscap contributed to our seed round.
We also had participation from funds including Bankless Ventures, Longhash Ventures, P-OPS team, Public Works, ZK Validator, Lambda Class, Daedalus, Zero DAO, Velocity Capital, and Daemon Ventures.
Beyond funds, S-tier builders also angeled in this round. This includes Balaji, the former CTO of Coinbase and a16z GP; Mustafa and Nick, the CEO and COO of Celestia; Sandeep, Jaynti, and Daniel, the cofounders of Polygon; Zac and Claire, the CEO and CMO of Aztec; Sergey, the CEO of Axelar; Greg, the Cofounder of Geometry; and several others.
Fermah was founded by Dr. Vanishree Rao. She has been designing and building ZK for over 15 years and has a PhD in cryptography from UCLA.
We are building a world-class team that values delivering results with excellence and empathy.
We create an environment in which you can do the best work of your career.
To enable you to do this, you will have:

Fully remote work
Work wherever you want - yeah, even the moon. We won’t try to stop you.
Take-what-you-need PTO
You’ll always have the time you need to recharge. Although we might need to sprint at moments, we’re running a marathon.
We’re embarking on an ambitious quest to reinvent computation and trust on the internet.
