BlockIDE

BlockIDE, founded in 2018 by Chen Atlas and Casey Gardiner, operated as a development platform targeting the blockchain and financial software sectors. The company, now listed as out of business since September 2019, aimed to simplify the creation of custom smart contracts for users without prior blockchain development experience.

The core of BlockIDE's offering was a web-based integrated development environment (IDE) for smart contracts. It featured a drag-and-drop interface and a selection of smart contract templates to streamline the development process. A key component was its Smart Contract Wizard, designed to help businesses integrate smart contracts into their existing infrastructure. Furthermore, the platform provided an Oracle system to connect smart contracts with external data and Web APIs, enhancing their real-world applicability.

BlockIDE's business model included a marketplace where developers could sell their code, and users could purchase and implement it. The platform was designed to allow individuals and businesses to create, manage, and deploy smart contracts across various blockchains on a secure hyperledger. The company was based in Lakeland, Florida, and went through an accelerator/incubator phase in early 2018 before ceasing operations.
