ZEEs are systems that use zero-knowledge proofs (like zk-SNARKs or zk-STARKs) to run smart contracts or other computations in a way that is both private and verifiable.

This means users can trust the outcome of a computation without ever exposing their sensitive data.

@Covalent_HQ is building the critical link between ZEEs and the wider Web3 ecosystem. By solving data fragmentation and latency issues, it enables use cases such as:

• Private trading platforms
• Secure NFT galleries
• Cross-chain bridges
• Decentralized AI applications

In short, ZEEs deliver privacy and trust, and Covalent provides the reliable data pipeline that makes them practical at scale.
