Private money on public chains
Hold, pay and get paid in stablecoins while amounts and balances stay off the public record. Built for people, teams and the agents that work for them.
What UMBR is
The app
Try it now
Shield, pay and run payroll from a wallet you already own. UMBR never takes custody of your keys.
Open appThe protocol
A shielded pool, in the open
Private balances on Robinhood Chain and Tempo testnets. The transfer settles publicly; the amount and the parties do not.
Check a proofThe SDK
Ship it in your product
One TypeScript package for private balances, payments and proofs inside your own app or agent.
See the SDKA public chain reads every payment aloud. UMBR lowers its voice.
On an open ledger, anyone can look up what you paid, who you paid and what is left. That suits a protocol. It does not suit a salary, a supplier or a company account. UMBR keeps settlement on the public chain and the details with the people involved.
Private money, working on testnet
Shield funds, pay anyone and prove what you hold without naming the number. Running today with test funds on real contracts.
Play with the controls. Each button opens the real app on testnet.

Choose an amount, then switch views to see what an onlooker gets.
Shield fundsMove USDG, pathUSD and other supported stablecoins into a balance that only you can read.
Pay an UMBR address or share a claim link. The explorer records a transfer, never the sum.
Balance of $15,000 or more
Backed by your private balance
18,340 USDG
Give a lender, auditor or partner the one fact they need, and keep the rest to yourself.
One payment, one owner. No one else needs a key.
Systems that compute over many people's hidden data, like sealed-bid auctions or shared lending books, need someone to hold a key for everyone. A payment belongs to one person, so that person can prove it on their own device.
Shared-key designs
Committees, MPC networks, private operators
A group or an operator keeps the key.
Compromise that key and every user behind it can be exposed, history included.
UMBR
Proofs made by the owner
Your device builds the proof. There is no shared key.
Compromise one device and one person is affected, not the whole pool.
Some privacy services generate proofs on their own servers, which means those servers see your amounts. UMBR proves in your browser, never on ours. Compare approaches
For money that is nobody else's business
Stablecoins made moving money on-chain quick and cheap. UMBR makes it discreet enough for the people who actually depend on it: you, your team, your company and your agents.
On the roadmap. Tokenized stocks can already be held and sent privately on the Robinhood Chain testnet. Private trading is being designed next. About private trading
Payroll from a single file
Upload names and amounts. UMBR pays each person from your private balance and can hand every payment to a relayer, so your own wallet stays out of the record too.

For developers and agents
Private payments in any product
The SDK brings private balances, private transfers and proofs to any app or agent. Agents can pay per call without revealing the treasury behind them.
import { createUmbrClient, networks } from "@umbr/sdk";
const umbr = createUmbrClient({ network: networks.tempoModerato, wallet });
await umbr.send({ to, asset: "pathUSD", amount: "250.00" });
// the explorer shows a private transfer: no amount, no recipientPrivate, and still provable
UMBR does not invent new cryptography. It packages proven pieces into something finance can use.
Prove a payroll total
Show that a batch of payments added up to an exact sum, without listing who received what.
Read howProofs with an audience
Every proof is bound to the reader it was made for and to an expiry. Alter either and it no longer checks.
About proofsAgent-ready payments
Private pay-per-call for agents, with spending caps the owner sets and can see.
Agents guideNobody in the middle
Verify a proofNo withdraw key
The pool is designed with no function that lets an operator, the UMBR team included, move user funds.
Changes on a public delay
Any change to how proofs are verified is meant to be queued on-chain and visible days before it applies.
Code you can read
Contracts, circuits, app and SDK are developed in the open, so the deployed code can be compared with source.
