I am happy to announce that we have partnered with Algorand, and are working closely with their team to make sure that we can hit the ground running when Algorand releases their smart contract language.

Algorand and Reach Platform have a shared vision for real-world application and adoption of blockchain through performance, developer enablement, and simple deployment for applications of the future. Together, the organizations will be working together to support efforts for faster and stronger blockchain development.

Our partnership with Algorand will enable the 30 million developers in the world to develop true decentralized applications. Reach abstracts away the complication of the blockchain, and automatically formally verifies the output of the entire application so the developer can have the guarantees that are needed in the blockchain space. While it can sometimes take months to build an application, Reach’s enablement tools reduce this timeframe to weeks.

Algorand has had a developer-first mentality since day one. This, along with a compelling roadmap, makes Algorand a strong platform for DApp development of our future. With performance on par with large payment networks, developers will benefit from the innovative primitives in Algorand’s base protocol with increased efficiency.

We have also moved into the Algorand office to make sure that the teams can collaborate and work closely on providing tools for the growing Algorand developer community.

ABOUT REACH PLATFORM

Reach will enable tens of millions of developers to participate in the blockchain community, rather than only the thousands that participate today, by drastically lowering the barrier to entry into blockchain and drastically raising the productivity of DApp developers. A Decentralized Application that used to take months to develop will be able to be completed in weeks.
