The Problem

Your Contract Can't Be Patched Once the Money Is In

Risk peaks in the weeks before deployment and after each upgrade: code is frozen, funds are about to arrive, and nobody outside the team has read it.

  1. Same authors

    The team that wrote the code also wrote its tests.

    Same authors

    Reviewers who didn't build it question every assumption the original tests make.

  2. Reentrancy

    An external call runs before the balance updates.

    Reentrancy

    Every external call is traced, state updates come first, and reentrancy guards get tested.

  3. Admin keys

    One owner key can mint, pause, or upgrade everything.

    Admin keys

    Privileged roles are listed with what each can do, and single-key powers are flagged.

  4. Upgrades

    A proxy upgrade ships unreviewed code after launch.

    Upgrades

    Storage layout and initializers are checked, and each upgrade gets its own review scope.

Your contracts pass every test your team wrote, because the same people wrote the code and the tests. Nobody has asked what happens when a withdraw call re-enters before the balance updates. Nobody has tested an oracle price that moves inside one block, or a single owner key guarding the mint function. Launch is in three weeks and the token is announced. An upgrade proxy means one bad deploy can replace everything. On-chain, a bug becomes a public transaction anyone can repeat.

We start by freezing the scope at a commit hash and writing down what must hold: total supply, who can mint, and what a withdrawal may not exceed. Two reviewers then read every in-scope line by hand, with Slither, fuzzing, and invariant tests checking their hunches. Each finding comes with a failing test that proves it. After your team fixes the code, we review the new commit, so the report describes the contract you deploy, not an earlier draft.

  • Scope frozen at a commit

    The audit names the exact commit hash, so the report matches the code you deploy.

  • Two reviewers per line

    Two auditors read every in-scope line on their own, then compare notes before anything is written up.

  • A failing test per finding

    Each bug comes with a test that fails before your fix and passes after it.

Our Smart Contract Audit Process

From Frozen Commit to Fix Review in Five Clear Steps

You agree the commit and scope before we read a line, see findings as they are confirmed, and get a final report that matches your fixed code.

  1. We look at the repository, the chains you deploy to, and your launch date. You get the in-scope files, a line count, a fixed price, and a start date within 2 business days.

Projects We've Built

Crypto apps and NFT marketplaces we designed and built. They show our Web3 build work, not past audits, and we don't audit code we wrote.

What's Included

What You Get With a Smart Contract Security Audit

Everything you need to fix the code and show users, exchanges, or investors what was reviewed: scope, threat model, findings, tests, and a final report.

  • Scope and commit record

    The exact files, line counts, and commit hash reviewed, so nobody mistakes an old audit for the current code.

  • Threat model and invariants

    How the protocol should behave, who holds which keys, and the properties no transaction may break.

  • Line-by-line manual review

    Two reviewers on every in-scope line, covering access control, reentrancy, math, oracles, and upgrade logic.

  • Proof-of-concept tests

    A failing Foundry or Anchor test for each confirmed finding, so your team can reproduce it.

  • Severity-ranked report

    Findings rated critical to informational, with affected lines, impact, and a recommended fix for each.

  • Fix review and final report

    Your fixed commit reviewed and a final report you can publish, with 30 days to send the fixes.

What Our Clients Say

What Clients Say After Launch

Feedback from teams we have built apps, platforms, and websites for.

We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.

Work Culture

Why Web3 Founders Trust Us as Their Smart Contract Audit Firm

An audit is only as useful as its honesty about what was and wasn't checked. These six habits shape every report we sign.

  • Independent from the build

    If we built your contracts, use another auditor, because nobody should review their own code. We audit only contracts DeveloperLook did not write.

  • Lower risk, honestly scoped

    An audit lowers the chance of an exploit but can't prove a contract is bug-free. Our reports say exactly what was in scope and what wasn't.

  • Reports that match deployed code

    The final report names the reviewed commit and files. After launch, we can confirm that the verified on-chain source matches the code we reviewed.

  • Proof before severity

    We rate a finding critical only when a test shows the damage. Theoretical issues are labeled as such, so you don't burn launch days on noise.

  • Honest about what you need

    If your contract is an unmodified OpenZeppelin token with no custom logic, a full audit may be more than you need. When a lighter review covers your case, we'll tell you before we quote.

  • Fixed price by line count

    You get a fixed price based on in-scope lines and complexity before we start. Code added after the commit freeze is quoted as a new scope.

Overview

What do smart contract audit services include before deployment?

DeveloperLook provides smart contract audit services for Solidity and Rust contracts on Ethereum, EVM chains, and Solana. Two reviewers read every in-scope line, write a failing test for each finding, rate severity, and review your fixes. Audits start at $1,450 and take 1 to 5 weeks, and we only audit code we did not write.

Good fit

  • Token and NFT teams before launch

    Your ERC-20 or NFT mint contract adds vesting, allowlists, or royalties to OpenZeppelin code, and launch day is set before anyone outside the team has read it.

  • DeFi protocols with real deposits

    Your vault, staking, or lending contracts on Ethereum or Arbitrum will hold user deposits, and you need an Ethereum smart contract audit before liquidity arrives.

  • Solana teams writing Rust programs

    Your Solana programs use Anchor, and you need a Rust smart contract audit that checks account validation, signer checks, and program derived addresses.

  • Projects upgrading live contracts

    Your contracts are live on Base, Polygon, or BNB Smart Chain behind an upgrade proxy, and the next upgrade changes storage or adds a new role.

  • Founders comparing audit options

    You're comparing a smart contract audit company with an audit contest and want named reviewers, a fixed price, and a fix review included.

Not a fit

  • We wrote your contracts

    DeveloperLook wrote your contracts, so an independent firm should audit them. Our smart contract development page explains how we prepare the audit pack for that firm.

  • Off-chain security concerns

    Your worry is the front end, signing flow, RPC keys, or multisig operations around the contracts. Our crypto and Web3 security audit covers that off-chain side.

  • Need formal verification proofs

    You need a mathematical proof of every property across all states. A formal verification specialist fits better, since our audits use fuzzing and invariant tests instead.

  • Budget under $1,450

    Your budget is under $1,450, or the contract is an unmodified OpenZeppelin template. Running Slither yourself and keeping audited library code unchanged may be enough.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers on cost, timelines, audit frequency, upgrades, Solidity and Rust reviews, and the fix review.

  • Our smart contract audit services start at $1,450 for one contract or program up to 300 lines, including a fix review. That plan has two reviewers on every line and a proof-of-concept test per finding. Protocols up to 1,200 lines across 6 contracts start at $4,200, and DeFi or Solana protocols up to 3,000 lines start at $8,900. Line count and complexity drive the price, and you get a fixed quote before we start.

  • A single contract takes 1 to 2 weeks, and protocols take 3 to 5 weeks, including the fix review. The threat model takes 1 to 2 days, manual review 3 days to 3 weeks, and the report 2 to 3 days. Book the audit when your code is feature-complete, because changes during review reset part of the work.

  • A smart contract audit is a line-by-line security review of contract code by people who didn't write it. The goal is to find exploitable bugs before attackers do. Reviewers test risky paths with tools such as Slither and fuzzers, then write up each issue with its severity and a fix. A good report also states exactly which commit and files were reviewed.

  • Audits matter before deployment because most contracts can't be edited once they're live, and any bug is visible to anyone reading the chain. An exploit can drain funds in one transaction, with no chargeback or support desk to reverse it. An audit lowers that risk while a fix is still a code change, though no audit can promise a bug-free contract.

  • Audit smart contracts before the first deployment and again before every upgrade that changes logic, storage, or permissions. Unchanged contracts don't need a yearly re-audit, but new integrations, such as a new oracle or token, change their risk. Teams that release often audit each upgrade's diff instead of the whole codebase, which keeps the cost in line with the change.

  • Audit after any deployment update that touches contract logic, storage layout, access roles, or external integrations, and do it before the upgrade goes live. For a proxy upgrade, we review the new implementation, its storage layout against the old one, and the initializer. Parameter changes made through existing admin functions usually need a check of the new values, not a full audit.

  • Smart contract audits are done by specialist audit firms, independent reviewers, and audit contests where many researchers compete for rewards. DeveloperLook audits as a small team of named reviewers with a fixed price and a fix review included. Whoever you choose, pick someone who didn't write the code, and ask for a sample report before you sign.

  • A Solidity smart contract audit checks access control, reentrancy, input validation, arithmetic, oracle use, external calls, and upgrade logic. Those match the risks in the OWASP Smart Contract Top 10 (2025). We also check business logic against the threat model, since costly bugs are often code doing exactly what it says but not what you meant.

  • Solana audits focus on account validation more than reentrancy. The common risks are missing owner and signer checks, unchecked program derived addresses, and arithmetic that wraps silently when overflow checks are off. We review Anchor constraints by hand, run cargo audit and Clippy, and write a proof-of-concept test for each finding, just as we do for Solidity.

  • You have 30 days to send your fixed commit, and we review every change and mark each finding fixed, acknowledged, or open. The final report names the reviewed commit, so users and exchanges can match it to the deployed code. The Full Protocol Audit adds a second fix review and a check that the verified on-chain source matches the audited commit.
