Covalent

Introduction

Covalent is a hosted blockchain data solution providing access to historical and current on-chain data on Cronos and other blockchains.

Covalent maintains a full archival copy of every supported blockchain, meaning every balance, transaction, log event, and NFT asset data is available from the genesis block. This data is available via:

1. Unified API - Incorporate blockchain data into your app with a familiar REST API

2. Increment - Create and embed custom charts with no-code analytics

Consider using Covalent if you need:

• Structured and enhanced on-chain data well beyond what you get from RPC providers

• Broad and deep multi-chain data at scale

• Enterprise-grade performance

Increment

Increment is a novel no-code charting and reporting tool powered by Covalent, revolutionizing how the Web3 space approaches analytics. Many analytics tools let you write SQL to create charts, but Increment is the only one to encode business logic - Reach, Retention, and Revenue - into an SQL compiler that can write valid SQL for you.
