- Name: Cometh
- URL: https://cometh.io/
- Category: regulated DeFi infrastructure / smart-wallet and account-abstraction stack / staking-trading-payments API
- Tags: ethereum-ecosystem
- Summary: Cometh is mostly a Safe-shaped business stack for Europe: smart wallets, sponsored execution, signer middleware, and a regulated-services wrapper sold together. The broad
DeFi infrastructurepitch matters less than that operator bundle. - What it does:
- Markets a single integration for businesses that want custody, staking, trading, and payment rails under one API and regulatory wrapper
- Ships Cometh Connect, a white-label smart-wallet SDK built around biometrics, ERC-4337 account abstraction, gasless flows, account recovery, and session-key UX
- Operates Bundler and Paymaster APIs for ERC-4337 UserOperations, gas estimation/submission, and transaction sponsorship across supported EVM networks
- Provides a core SDK for smart-account management that supports multiple signer/authentication paths including EOA, Magic, Web3Auth, Turnkey, and Privy
- Maintains public SDK repositories spanning web, React, and mobile account-abstraction integrations, with Safe-based smart-account infrastructure visible in the docs and repos
- Key claims:
- The homepage positions Cometh as “The DeFi Infrastructure for Businesses,” emphasizing a unified API for custody, staking, trading, and payments plus a regulated, audit-ready posture
- Official docs describe Cometh as building “DeFi-native Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) infrastructure for Europe” and say the stack combines Crosschain Safe / ERC-4337 primitives with a MiCA-aligned regulatory perimeter
- The documentation currently has the deepest public detail around Cometh Connect, SDK Core, Bundler API, and Paymaster API, even while the broader DeFi-as-a-Service API layer is still framed as “coming soon”
- Bundler docs show Cometh operating ERC-4337 infrastructure for UserOperation submission, gas estimation, receipt lookup, and supported entry points
- Paymaster docs show Cometh offering gas sponsorship workflows tied to sponsored contract addresses and monthly billing, which makes the platform more than a wallet SDK alone
- The public GitHub organization reinforces that Cometh is an active account-abstraction infrastructure vendor, with repos for Connect SDK variants, keystore components, and mobile SDKs
- Whitepaper: No classic whitepaper or litepaper was found during this pass. The strongest primary materials were Cometh’s official homepage, docs portal, SDK/Bundler/Paymaster documentation, and public GitHub repositories; see

Governance / control risk
-
The leverage sits in signer and auth integrations, bundler admission, sponsorship policy, SDK defaults, billing, and the regulated wrapper around the stack.
-
Read Cometh as wallet operations and transaction policy sold inside a business-services package, not as a new account primitive.
