Kualitee & Kualitatem's partnership with Scroll.io is empowering the next wave of founders. * January 29, 2026 * Zunnoor Zafar * * Partnership Founders and developers are often forced to make a difficult choice: Speed or Stability? Innovation moves at lightning speed, but one minor bug in a smart contract or a glitch in a decentralised application (dApp) can mean the difference between a successful launch and a catastrophic setback. At Kualitee and Kualitatem, we believe you shouldn't have to choose. We are thrilled to announce our strategic partnership with Scroll.io, the bytecode-equivalent zkEVM rollup, scaling the future of Ethereum. This collaboration isn't just about technical integration. It's a commitment to the tech community and the founders who are building the "Open Economy." A partnership built for the "community-first" zkEVM. Scroll's mission is to build an open economy, which is a place where anyone, regardless of location, can innovate without boundaries. They have proven this commitment through massive community initiatives: * The Scroll Open Journey: A global hub for creation that transforms builders into pioneers through 6-week immersive tracks in DeFi, RWA, and Payments. * Regional Local Nodes: From Brazil to Kenya, Scroll is empowering local leaders through the Msingi | Daraja | Vuka pipeline, guiding founders from ideation (Msingi) to bridge-building (Daraja) and finally to market integration (Vuka). * Community Grants & Security Subsidies: With programs like the Security Subsidy Program in collaboration with Areta and Immunefi, Scroll is ensuring that even early-stage startups have access to elite security audits. At Kualitee and Kualitatem, we are stepping in to amplify these efforts. We aren't just joining an ecosystem; we are joining a global community of "mages" and "pioneers." A triple-threat to friction. This partnership brings together the best of blockchain infrastructure, AI-powered test management, and elite security auditing. By joining forces with Scroll, we are providing a holistic "Safety Net" for the ecosystem: * Scroll.io (The Foundation): Providing the scalable, Ethereum-compatible infrastructure that allows developers to build high-performance dApps with zero trade-offs between security and throughput. * Kualitee (The Agility): Our AI-powered test management platform (featuring "Hootie," the AI copilot) streamlines the QA process, allowing lean startup teams to manage test cases and defects with 70% more efficiency. * Kualitatem (The Expertise): Delivering independent software quality and information security audits, ensuring that projects launching on Scroll are battle-tested and impenetrable. Supporting the founder Journey. Founders are the lifeblood of the tech community, but they are often the most underserved. Many are forced to use enterprise-grade tools they can't afford or move forward without proper testing due to time constraints. This partnership changes that narrative. Our manifesto has always been: "Built from Frustration, Designed for Freedom." By aligning with Scroll, we are extending that freedom to the Web3 space. We are giving founders the "vouch" they need to scale with confidence. * For the Solo Builder: You now have the same "testing power" as a Fortune 500 company. Kualitee's intuitive interface means you spend less time in spreadsheets and more time in production. * For the Scaling Startup: As you move through Scroll's builder tracks (like Msingi or Daraja), Kualitatem's security expertise ensures your code matures as fast as your user base. * For the Global Community: We are lowering the barriers to entry for quality. By integrating with Scroll's open-source ethos, we are making robust QA a standard, not a luxury. Let's build the future together. The future of the internet is decentralised, but its success depends on reliability. We invite all founders, builders, and visionaries within the Scroll ecosystem to our tools and expertise. * 40 hours of software services (free) * 10% discount on both services for any company that joins The stage is set. The infrastructure is ready. Now, let's make sure your innovation is flawless. Ready to launch your vision with confidence?

ChatterPay, a crypto wallet for WhatsApp, has raised a strategic funding round led by Scroll, with participation from crypto angel investors. The funding will enhance ChatterPay's infrastructure, expand spending options, and improve the WhatsApp payment experience, particularly in LATAM. Founded in 2024, ChatterPay aims to simplify crypto transactions by integrating them into WhatsApp, eliminating the need for new apps or technical knowledge.

Scroll has also introduced OpenVM, a tool developed with Axiom, which breaks down large transactions into smaller, more manageable proofs, improving reliability and system efficiency.
