Gelato
Web3 cloud infrastructure providing automation (smart-contract keepers), relay, VRF, account abstraction and rollup-as-a-service.
Our Verdict
A versatile web3 infra Swiss Army knife, with the usual tradeoff of trusting one provider.
Pros
- Broad web3 automation primitives
- Covers keepers, VRF, AA, and relay
- Rollup-as-a-service is maturing
Cons
- Pricing and fees can be opaque
- Heavy dependency on Gelato infra
- Not every chain fully supported
Best for: dApp teams wanting automation, relay, VRF, and AA from one stack
Not for: Protocols that insist on fully self-hosted, minimal-trust infra
