Vision and Mission

Sentinel's vision and mission statement, outlining our commitment to decentralization, privacy, and user empowerment.

Vision

To create a secure and intelligent blockchain ecosystem where every smart contract — from deployment to live operation — is continuously monitored, contextually analyzed, and protected by AI. Sentinel envisions a future where protocol-level auditing is not optional, but an embedded, autonomous part of the blockchain infrastructure — preventing both known and unknown vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.

We aim to establish an immutable, decentralized database of smart contract threats, enabling users, developers, and protocols to benefit from shared intelligence, making exploits rare, expensive, and eventually obsolete.

Mission

Sentinel's mission is to redefine how smart contract security is approached — moving from static, one-time audits to a living, always-on AI-powered defense layer.

By integrating deeply with Metis’s architecture, Sentinel starts analyzing the moment a contract is deployed, and continues to evolve its understanding post-deployment. Through a combination of contextual AI, threat intelligence from historical audits, and a growing on-chain knowledge base, Sentinel provides real-time detection and remediation for contract vulnerabilities — including those not yet discovered.

For developers, this means building with confidence. For users, it means interacting with dApps that are continuously safeguarded. For the ecosystem, it means raising the baseline for what "secure by design" truly means.

Sentinel is building the foundation for autonomous, protocol-native smart contract security — ensuring that Web3 evolves with safety as its default state.

Core Values

  • Decentralization: We believe in a future where security is not controlled by a few, but is a shared responsibility across the ecosystem.
  • Transparency: Our AI models and analysis processes are designed to be open and auditable, ensuring trust in our findings.
  • User Empowerment: We prioritize user safety and control, enabling individuals to interact with dApps confidently.
  • Continuous Improvement: Our AI models learn and adapt over time, ensuring that Sentinel evolves alongside the threats it aims to mitigate.
  • Community Collaboration: We actively engage with the developer community to refine our models, share insights, and enhance the overall security landscape.
  • Integrity: We uphold the highest standards of ethical AI use, ensuring that our models are fair, unbiased, and focused on enhancing security without compromising user privacy.
  • Education: We believe in empowering the community through education, providing resources and tools to help developers and users understand smart contract security and the role of AI in enhancing it.
