Pick the Hedera service that powers your app: accounts, smart contracts, native tokens, or consensus, then try it in your browser with no setup.

Consensus Service

Scalable, real-time audit logs with consensus timestamps. 10k+ TPS at $0.0001 per message.

HCSMessaging

Token Service

Configure, mint, and manage native fungible and non-fungible tokens with built-in compliance.

HTSERC-20ERC-721

Smart Contracts

EVM-compatible Solidity contracts with access to native Hedera services via system contracts.

SolidityEVM

Account Service

Create and manage Hedera accounts, keys, staking, and auto-account creation from a public key.
