🧱 Bring your TEEs to Sui. Introducing Nautilus.

Confidential computing is here — and it’s fully verifiable.

Build hybrid Web3 apps that are fast, private, and decentralized.

Now live on Testnet.

Nautilus lets you process private data or run high-cost logic offchain in self-managed Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) — starting with AWS Nitro Enclaves.

Then it anchors trust onchain using cryptographic attestations, verified by Move smart contracts.

Low cost computation offchain. High trust verifiability onchain.

✅ How it works:

• Deploy your logic to an offchain TEE (e.g. Nitro Enclave)

• The TEE executes it & produces a cryptographic attestation

• Onchain Move smart contracts verify the attestation before accepting TEE outputs

TEE integrity is auditable and anchored to provider’s root of trust

Why it matters:

Web3 isn’t about doing everything onchain — it’s about verifiable computing across both onchain and offchain layers to strike the optimum balance.

Nautilus enables a new class of hybrid apps:

Private. Performant. Decentralized.

🔒 Use cases for Nautilus:

• Tamper-proof offchain oracles (prices, weather, sports)

• Secure AI inference with offchain privacy + onchain provenance

• Private identity checks with onchain verification

• Hidden and computationally intensive game logic for fair play

Combine Nautilus with Seal for full-spectrum privacy:

🧠 Process private data offchain with Nautilus

🔐 Encrypt the output with Seal and store on public network

🔓 Decrypt it in a dApp or another Nautilus enclave  — only if Seal access conditions are met

🧰 Dev toolkit includes:

• Onchain Move modules for verifying offchain attestations

• Reproducible build template for AWS Nitro Enclaves

• Testnet access live now

• Full demo app with offchain computation + onchain verification 👇

🛡️ Part of Sui’s trust-by-design architecture:

• Object-centric data model for secure onchain state

• Move for safe and auditable smart contracts

• zkLogin: Web2-style auth with zero-knowledge privacy

• Passkey based seamless login flow without seedphrases

• Onchain randomness

• Native support for zk-SNARKs

• Seal for decentralized encryption + access control

🧪 Ready to build?

Nautilus is now live on Sui Testnet.

With Nautilus, Sui brings verifiable offchain computation into the core Web3 developer toolkit.

The future of Web3 is hybrid.

Offchain privacy. Onchain trust.

Now you can have both.
