About Tesera

Tesera is an independent team building the MCP gateway for on-chain networks. We start with Elysium, live from day one of mainnet, so any AI client can read the chain, understand transactions, ship contracts and act within limits you set.

People already do their work inside AI clients. Every on-chain network should be reachable from the clients they use.

Why we are building it

MCP gives AI clients a common way to use tools. Tesera turns that into a common way to use chains: one gateway that any compatible client, such as Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code or Devin Desktop, can reach with a single URL, with the same tools and the same limits on every network it serves.

Elysium, the new Layer 2 that Kinetiq built for the Hyperliquid ecosystem, is the first. Tesera goes live with Elysium mainnet on 9 November 2026.

The idea

Why a gateway

One gateway · every network, the same shape

Every chain has its own nodes, explorers, docs and quirks. Every AI client has its own way of adding tools.

Tesera sits between the two. It speaks MCP to every client and speaks each chain natively, and it keeps the tools, limits and logs identical from one network to the next. An assistant that can work on one network can work on the next.

Principles

How we build the gateway

01

We never hold keys

Tesera never holds private keys and never asks for a seed phrase. Anything that changes state is prepared unsigned, and you sign it in your own wallet.

02

You set the limits

An optional agent key is created in your own wallet, with caps, allowed contracts and functions, and an expiry that you choose. You can revoke it at any time.

03

Simulate before signing

Nothing is offered for signing until it has been run against live state and explained in plain words, with every balance change shown.

04

Open about limits

Every action is logged so you can see what the AI did. When the gateway cannot do something, the docs say so plainly.

03

What comes next

Now

Elysium mainnet

Live from day one with Read, Understand, Build and Act tools, agent keys, the console and the action log.

Next

Contract alerts

Hear when something happens on a contract you care about, in your client or by webhook.

Next

HyperCore data

HyperCore market data on Elysium, once Kinetiq ships its hooks.

After

More networks

New endpoints with the same tools, limits and logs, so agents carry over.
