What is Sonar?

Sonar is a self-hosted, on-chain token sale infrastructure that enables projects to run compliant token sales directly to their community.

Self-hosted

You sell directly to your community through your own website and channels. Sonar provides the backend infrastructure, smart contracts, and compliance tooling—you build the frontend experience.

On-chain

Funds are collected and held in a smart contract you own. Settlement and refunds happen on-chain, providing transparency and security.

Compliance-ready

Sonar handles KYC/KYB verification, wallet screening, accreditation checks, and can enforce jurisdiction restrictions and regulatory requirements.

Flexible

The same core contract supports multiple sale types. You choose the pricing strategy, settlement strategy, and compliance configuration that fits your objectives.

​
How It Works

  1. You configure your sale in the Echo Founder Dashboard, setting pricing, settlement strategy, compliance rules, and limits.
  2. Investors visit your website and connect their wallet. You build the frontend experience; Sonar provides the backend infrastructure and smart contracts.
  3. Investors verify their identity through Sonar’s KYC/KYB process and link their wallet to their verified entity.
  4. Investors commit funds to your sale. Sonar issues signed purchase permits that your contract validates before accepting commitments.
  5. Allocations and refunds are processed after the sale closes. Allocations are computed using your chosen settlement strategy and refunds are issued for any uncommitted funds.
