ChainFlow · How the workflow works

Trust boundary
  1. Off-chain

    The invoice is recorded

    Company A

    PDF and metadata are captured, producing a hash — the fingerprint of exactly this version of the document.

    ProducesHash

  2. Off-chain

    The sender signs

    Company A

    The content is confirmed with an EIP-712 signature: provable evidence of who released which version.

    ProducesEIP-712 signature

  3. On-chain

    The smart contract stores the status

    Smart contract

    Registration happens on the demo chain. Every status transition is a logged event.

    ProducesOn-chain registration

  4. On-chain

    Everyone sees the same state

    A · B · explorer

    Events distribute the status change to all parties. No single party controls the authoritative database.

DEMO CHAIN · NOT A PRODUCTION SYSTEM

Four steps of an invoice workflow: capture and signing run off-chain, registration and status transitions on a demo chain. Sender, recipient and explorer then see the same state.
