Analog is a completely decentralized, PoT-based, layer-0 platform for communicating validated event data. At the core of the platform are tesseracts and time nodes (explained later) that can privately fetch and confirm event data from sovereign chains, allowing different ecosystems to speak the same language.
Our mission is to usher in trustless, omnichain interoperability that allows developers to easily build their applications via a universal protocol and an API. We are also unveiling a novel, superfast PoT protocol that creates verifiable event data on the Timechain, allowing DApp developers to build next-generation event-based applications.
We believe that each Blockchain ecosystem has its core strengths, use cases, developer pools, and liquidity pools (LPs). Blockchains should benefit from trading functionalities, assets, and LPs; the same way economies benefit from cross-border trade. Our vision is to facilitate omnichain interoperability to enable developers to deploy DApps from any network to any other Blockchain, in a near codeless format, and at scale.

N2N's vision is to enable secure and holistic cloud integration so that organizations of all sizes can seamlessly connect cloud applications with their enterprise applications and data stores. N2N’s flagship product, Illuminate is an iPaaS enabling turnkey SaaS-to-SaaS and SaaS-to-on-premise application and data integration. Illuminate’s intuitive approach enables customers to create, manage, secure, and monetize APIs, and build bridges between two APIs without any need for programming and additional infrastructure.
N2N believes that secure and turnkey application and data Integration, powered by APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) is critical to the success of any enterprise competing in today’s digital economy. Enterprises, irrespective of their size and business models, need APIs for integration with cloud, mobile, and social applications, wearable devices (“Things” in IoT), and partner and customer portals. Modern, digital enterprises are now exploiting APIs to support real-time process automation, workflows, artificial intelligence (AI), and business intelligence (BI) & analytics.
Even though APIs are critical for achieving success in today’s digital economy, many enterprises have struggled with creation, management, and security of APIs. In this context, enterprises frequently spend millions of dollars on middleware, architecture teams, and disparate technologies without realizing any significant success. Small- and Medium-sized Businesses (SMBs) have more IT spending and resource constraints and often struggle to meet the unrelenting need for integration for composing digital business processes and a seamless transition to cloud services.
N2N is to committed to enabling enterprises of all sizes to participate, benefit from, and compete in today's digital economy enabled by APIs. N2N’s iPaaS, Illuminate enables enterprises to achieve success with migration to cloud services and fosters implementation of cloud-and API-first strategies.
