The cross-chain state and coordination layer for atomic composability.
Switchboard is a sub-400ms cross-chain state synchronization platform. It uses Solana as a high-throughput coordination layer so a single contract, service, or autonomous agent can read and write state across 50+ EVM and non-EVM chains — through one integration, without bespoke bridge code per route. Write once, read everywhere, at trading-grade latency.
Not the Solana oracle. Cryptuon Switchboard is a cross-chain state-synchronization and coordination product. It is unrelated to, and distinct from, the well-known Solana "Switchboard" oracle network. Switchboard here uses Solana as a coordination clock — it is not an on-chain price oracle.

The multi-chain world settled into a hard shape: liquidity, state, and users are spread across dozens of L1s and L2s, and the fastest-growing class of on-chain actors — autonomous agents making agentic payments and executing intents — need to act across many chains at once. The old answer was N bespoke bridges, each with its own validator set, message format, and multi-second quorum. That does not compose, and it does not move at agent speed.
Switchboard reframes the problem around atomic composability: one coordinator on Solana that every chain agrees to watch, so a single write fans out to every destination inside one latency budget. For an agent or an intent-solver, that is the difference between orchestrating N brittle integrations and issuing one call against a coordination layer.
- Agentic payments & intents — an agent commits once to the coordinator; the relayer pool races the destination transactions. One integration instead of N bridges.
- Atomic composability — cross-chain routes anchor to a single finality clock instead of negotiating trust per corridor.
- Parallel-EVM & non-EVM reach — coordinate EVM L2s, Solana, and Move chains behind the same SDK surface.
- Honest scope — this is a coordination layer plus the ops stack to run it, not a validator network or a new token. See the roadmap for what is and is not production-ready.
See ROADMAP.md for the vision, milestones, and the cheapest path to production.

Coordination, not oracle feeds. Solana here is the coordination clock that every destination watches — this is state synchronization, not the Solana price-oracle product of the same name.
