Contract Royalty
Royalties are directly encoded into the contract and automatically distributed to the contract author when executed. Like NFT royalties, this ensures the author is incentivized to open-source their contract and is rewarded accordingly, benefiting the Cardano ecosystem with standardized and vetted contracts for anyone to use.

- Collaboration: Open-source work benefits from diverse contributions, which can lead to higher application efficiency and robustness.
- Composability: The ability to combine and recombine contracts encourages creative and innovative protocol development.
Unlocked Benefits for Cardano’s dApp Ecosystem
- Dependable Contracts: Access a curated collection of modular, robust, and reusable smart contracts. Benefit from contracts that have undergone rigorous community assessments.
- Standardize Contract Interface: Interact with contracts through intuitive API, SDK, or UI components, lowering the barrier to entry into Web3 and unlocking the power of blockchain for everyone.
- Instant Deployment: Avoid cumbersome and expensive Cardano backend infrastructure and seamlessly deploy contracts into your web2 application.
- Rewarding Innovation: The royalty system for both the backend and frontend developers encourages a culture of sharing and collective advancement.
Managed Contract API
Maestro’s Managed Contracts API gives access to ready-to-deploy smart contracts written in Plutus and Aiken or any other Cardano smart contract frameworks. The contract API abstracts away both on-chain and off-chain script interactions. Using intuitive and developer-friendly endpoints, this fully managed contract service aims to enhance developer experience, strengthen the ecosystem, and enhance the security of Dapps on Cardano.Contract UI Widgets
