RollUpAndDown

RaaS Analytics transforms rollup infrastructure into a live competitive arena, a dynamic dashboard where Rollup-as-a-Service (RaaS) providers such as Caldera, Conduit, Gelato, AltLayer, and Alchemy compete in real time.

Unlike traditional analytics platforms like L2Beat or GrowThePie, which track L2 performance in isolation, RaaS Analytics focuses on the providers behind the scenes — the modular engines deploying hundreds of chains. It visualizes how each provider’s ecosystem performs across transaction volume, average TPS, TVL, developer activity, and network efficiency.

At its core is the Battle of Chains, a live series of arenas that track how RaaS ecosystems evolve and compete across multiple dimensions:

Category Arena compares verticals such as DeFi, Gaming, and Social to reveal which RaaS leads each sector.

Rollup Stack Arena ranks providers based on their architectural stack — Optimism, Arbitrum, ZK, and others.

Performance Arena showcases live metrics for transaction count, active addresses, and block time.

Developer Arena tracks gas usage and new contract deployments to capture organic developer growth.

All metrics are powered by Blockscout’s Model Context Protocol (MCP), which aggregates verified explorer data across multiple rollup deployments. This ensures the insights are grounded in real, on-chain data — not scraped dashboards or self-reported statistics.

Beyond visualization, RaaS Analytics introduces Ask Analytics, an AI-powered query interface that lets users converse with the data. Built on top of Blockscout MCP tools, it enables the app to perform contextual reasoning on blockchain activity in natural language.

Users can ask questions like:

“Which RaaS added the most new chains this quarter?”

“Which ecosystem has the lowest average block time today?”

“Compare developer activity between Caldera and Conduit.”

The system retrieves fresh multichain data from the MCP, interprets it using an LLM agent, and returns precise, contextual answers — complete with explorer references. This transforms analytics from static observation into interactive explanation, where insights can be asked, reasoned, and understood instantly.

By combining real-time data aggregation with AI reasoning, RaaS Analytics reimagines blockchain intelligence. It’s not just a dashboard — it’s an explainer layer for modular ecosystems, powered by Blockscout MCP.

Tech stack:

React + React Router – SPA structure with multiple pages (Home, Battle, Bingo).

Custom CSS – a glassy, responsive interface with animated transitions and glowing charts.

Data APIs:

api/v2/stats for core metrics (TPS, tx count, block time, addresses).

api/v1/lines for developer growth data (gasUsedGrowth, newContracts).

Local caching (localStorage) – ensures smooth data refreshes and instant load times.

Lightweight chart rendering – custom animated bar charts instead of heavy libraries, for performance.

RaaS-based aggregation engine – every metric rolls up by provider, so battles are fair and visual.

Unique elements:

Battle of Chains: gamified ranking with category, stack, and developer-based matchups.

RaaS-level aggregation: instead of comparing individual rollups, it measures collective RaaS dominance.

Dynamic caching: stale-while-revalidate model for near-live data updates.

Ask Analytics (planned): an interactive assistant that answers “Which RaaS has the most tx?” or “Who leads Gaming this week?” directly inside the dashboard.

The result is a living, competitive dashboard, not just analytics
