Co-founded by Shreyas Hariharan and Austin Green, Llama provides an access control and governance platform for smart contracts, which enables protocols to securely take actions using onchain policies and custom execution strategies. It allows protocols to encode roles, permissions, and execution strategies to define workflows to take onchain actions. Actions could include upgrading a protocol, transferring funds, updating a registry, changing protocol parameters, or activating an emergency pause.
Llama is currently onboarding customers who are looking for an onchain access control and governance solution.
