CORE CAPABILITIES Wallets in one view See balances across every wallet your organization operates, and start a transfer from any one of them. Transfers and signing Initiate and sign transfers across supported chains, including EVM networks, Solana, Sui, Aptos, Tron, and more. Gas sponsored transfers Send from wallets that hold no native token. Choose which wallet covers the gas, so sending wallets never need to be topped up first. Contract calls and DeFi Review, approve, and sign smart contract calls with EVM payload decoding, so you know what you are signing before you sign it. Connect to decentralized applications through WalletConnect. Governance and controls Approvals, signing quorums, and transaction policies from the Utila console apply to every action initiated on mobile. Nothing bypasses your governance. Transaction context Add notes to transactions for record keeping, and use Solana memos on Solana transfers. Multi vault navigation Switch between vaults and organizations from one interface. SECURITY Multi Party Computation (MPC) protects your keys. Private key shares are never combined and never stored in one place. Approvals require the quorum your policies define. Biometric authentication protects the app on your device. LEARN MORE Visit www.utila.io for the full platform, deployment models, and integrations.
