Launch a production-grade block explorer for your chain — without running any infrastructure.
Explorer-as-a-Service (EaaS) is the managed offering from OpenScan.AI: the same AI-powered explorer that runs xdcscan.io, hosted and operated for your network, under your brand and domain.
What’s included
- Full explorer UI — blocks, transactions, addresses, tokens, NFTs, verified contracts — themed with your logo and colors.
- Blockscout-compatible REST API on your domain, so ecosystem tooling works out of the box.
- Contract verification — UI and API verification for Solidity and Vyper.
- AI features — transaction summaries, contract explanations, natural-language search.
- Account features — watchlists, private tags, API keys for your users.
- Operations — indexing infrastructure, monitoring, upgrades, and support handled by the OpenScan.AI team.
Who it’s for
- L1/L2 networks that need a canonical explorer their ecosystem can rely on.
- Appchains and rollups launching with a complete tooling story from day one.
- Enterprises running private or permissioned EVM chains.
OpenScan.AI already powers explorers for XDC Network, EVS, Wanchain, and Velas.
How onboarding works
- Scoping — share your chain details (chain ID, RPC endpoints, native currency, launch timeline).
- Testnet deployment — we stand up a testnet explorer first so your team can validate indexing, branding, and API behavior.
- Branding — logos, colors, links, and custom domains are applied. See Branding & Customization.
- Mainnet launch — production explorer goes live on your domain, with monitoring and support in place.
Start the process via onboarding your chain.
EaaS vs self-hosting
| Explorer-as-a-Service | Self-hosted | |
|---|---|---|
| Infrastructure | Managed by OpenScan.AI | You run it |
| Time to launch | Days | Hours to weeks |
| Custom branding | Included | DIY |
| AI features | Included | Included |
| Data control | Managed service | Full control |
| Cost | Subscription | Infrastructure + time |
If you want full control and have the ops capacity, self-host the open-source codebase instead — the codebase is the same.
