Chainlink ACE - Automated Compliance Engine

Policy Manager Quick Start

Deploy a PolicyEngine, integrate your contract, and attach your first policies.

Build an ERC-20 Compliance Token

Deploy the policy-protected ERC-20 reference implementation with frozen token handling.

Build an ERC-3643 Compliance Token

Deploy the ERC-3643 (T-REX) reference implementation for regulated securities.

Upgrade an Existing Contract

Add ACE compliance to a deployed contract through a standard proxy upgrade.

Architecture

The two layers of ACE: onchain contracts and the ACE Platform, connected by Chainlink infrastructure.

Policy Management

How PolicyEngine, policies, and extractors evaluate every protected function call.

Cross-Chain Identity

CCIDs link all of a user's wallet addresses across EVM chains to a single identity.

Signing & Ownership Model

Delegated or self-signing: you retain full ownership of all your contracts either way.

Preventive and Continuous Compliance

Block transactions at execution time, monitor deployed tokens continuously, or use both.

Active Monitoring

Screen addresses with TRM and act on tokens you already run, without changing their contracts.

Policy Library

Pre-built, audited policies: allowlists, volume limits, RBAC, KYC validators, and more.

Security Model

Governance controls, execution ordering guarantees, and privacy properties.
