TradingView, and their 50 million users, rely on Codex as the sole source of truth for all on-chain data.

“Codex has been instrumental in our efforts to support high quality DEX data via the TradingView interface. We were using 3-4 data providers previously, including the Graph, and have now consolidated everything to Codex.”

Alex T., Head of Product, Crypto

Sudoswap rely on Codex as their definitive single source of truth for historical data, significantly reducing engineering and AWS costs by hundreds of thousands of dollars.

“Working with the Codex team has been a game-changer. Codex seamlessly provides all the data we need, when we need it. If the data we want isn't currently available, the development team makes it available for us. I wish all of our integrations went this smoothly.”

Owen, Co-Founder of Sudorandom Labs

RICKBOT PROVIDES MULTI-CHAIN TOKEN DATA TO OVER 100,000 MONTHLY ACTIVE USERS WITH CODEX AS THEIR PREFERRED BLOCKCHAIN DATA SOLUTION

"Codex has always been very supportive and quick with any changes or features requested. But by far the most solid difference for me is the support of the many available launchpads these days and their extensive token filter endpoints."
