Shinami inc.

Established in 2022 and based in California, US, Shinami inc. operates as a software development company that offers Move-based blockchain platforms. In November 2024, Shinami inc. raised USD 5.

64 million in seed funding led by Race Capital, with participation from 6th Man Ventures, Coinbase Ventures, Circle Ventures, Mysten Labs, Inc. , and Aptos Foundation. Shinami offers a suite of services focused on facilitating blockchain development on the Aptos and Sui networks. Its core offerings include APIs for interacting with these blockchains, specifically the Aptos REST API, Aptos GraphQL API, and Sui JSON-RPC API, enabling developers to read and write on-chain data.

Shinami also provides node management services, eliminating the need for developers to handle infrastructure maintenance and scaling challenges. The platform supports zero gas fees for transactions through its gas station service and offers wallet solutions aimed at simplifying Web3 integration. Additionally, it provides dedicated node options with enhanced features for enterprise-level support. Shinami offers free tiers for both Aptos and Sui services, with charges for higher usage or enterprise-level plans.

The Gas Station service is free initially, but will incur a small fee later. The Node Service has a free tier with unlimited daily requests for basic plans, while enterprise options are custom-priced based on setup and volume. Additional fees apply for exceeding request limits or specific operations, with a pay-as-you-go model for certain services like Sui's Node Service. Support for higher-tier plans includes priority email and private communication channels.

The company intends to use the November 2024 funding to support the company's product and infrastructure growth.
