About Moralis

Moralis is a comprehensive Web3 development platform offering APIs that simplify building dApps. Instead of parsing raw blockchain data, use Moralis APIs to get structured, ready-to-use information.

The platform provides APIs for wallet data (portfolios, transactions), NFTs (metadata, ownership, transfers), tokens (prices, holders), and general blockchain data. Everything is indexed and served through simple REST APIs.

Moralis supports major chains including Ethereum, Polygon, BSC, and Solana. The APIs handle the complexity of blockchain data, letting developers focus on building applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Moralis indexes blockchain data and serves it through APIs. Get wallet portfolios, NFT metadata, token prices, transaction histories—all through simple API calls instead of running your own indexer.

The Graph is a decentralized indexing protocol—you query subgraphs. Moralis is a centralized API service—simpler but less decentralized. Moralis is easier to start, Graph is more customizable and trustless.

Moralis supports Ethereum, Polygon, BSC, Arbitrum, Optimism, Avalanche, Fantom, Solana, and more. Coverage focuses on major EVM chains plus Solana. Check docs for current full list.

Moralis has a free tier good for development. Paid plans based on API calls. Production apps typically need paid plans. Generous free tier compared to some alternatives.

Moralis continuously indexes blockchain data. Most data is real-time or near real-time. Streams provide instant webhooks for new events. Historical data is pre-indexed for fast queries.
