What is OpenScan.AI?

OpenScan.AI is an AI-powered blockchain explorer and Explorer-as-a-Service (EaaS) provider. It lets anyone search, decode, and understand on-chain data — and lets chains launch a dedicated, production-grade explorer for their own network.

In 60 Seconds

Instead of digging through raw RPC responses, you can:

  • Search any block, transaction, address, token, or NFT in one place
  • Read transactions in plain language with AI-powered decoding
  • Interact with verified smart contracts directly from the UI
  • Integrate a Blockscout-compatible REST API v2 — no API key required to start

It’s a full-featured block explorer, but smarter, open, and easy to integrate.

The live production explorer runs at xdcscan.io for XDC Network, with support for EVS, Wanchain, and Velas.


How It Works

1. Indexing

OpenScan.AI indexes every block, transaction, log, and token transfer from the chain into a queryable database.

2. Decoding

Transactions and contract calls are decoded against verified ABIs — and AI adds natural-language insights on top.

3. You Explore

Search from the web UI or query the REST API to get structured data for your app.

4. Chains Launch Explorers

Through EaaS, a new chain gets its own branded explorer instance, managed by OpenScan.AI or self-hosted from GitHub.


Why Use OpenScan.AI?

AI-Powered Understanding

Raw transaction data is decoded into human-readable actions — token swaps, transfers, contract calls — with AI-generated insights.

Blockscout-Compatible API

The REST API v2 at https://xdcscan.io/api/v2 follows the familiar Blockscout schema, so existing tooling works out of the box. Interactive docs live at xdcscan.io/api-docs.

No Key Required

Start querying the public API immediately — no sign-up, no API key to get started.

Multi-Chain

Search across supported networks — XDC, EVS, Wanchain, and Velas — from a single interface.

Explorer as a Service

Launching a chain? Get a dedicated explorer with your branding, your domain, and your feature set — managed or self-hosted.


Key Concepts

Block

A block is a batch of transactions confirmed together. The explorer shows its height, timestamp, transactions, and validator.

Transaction

A transaction is a signed action on the chain — a transfer, contract call, or deployment. OpenScan.AI decodes it into a human-readable summary.

Address

An address is an account on the chain. The explorer shows its balance, token holdings, and complete transaction history.

Token

A token is an asset defined by a smart contract (fungible or NFT). The explorer tracks transfers, holders, and metadata.

Verified Contract

A verified contract has its source code published and matched against the deployed bytecode — enabling read/write interaction and accurate decoding.


Common Use Cases

Users

Look up transactions, check balances, and verify what a transaction actually did before trusting it.

Developers

Build dashboards, wallets, and analytics on top of the REST API — or verify contracts so users can interact with them safely.

Chains & Foundations

Launch a production explorer for your network without building and maintaining one in-house.

Analysts & Researchers

Trace fund flows, monitor contracts, and export structured data for analysis.
