What it does

Use when building wallet infrastructure, authentication systems, or financial applications. Reach for Privy when you need to create embedded wallets, manage user authentication, control wallet permissions with policies, execute transactions across blockchains, or build treasury/agent wallets with programmable controls.

Privy Skill Reference

Product summary

Privy is a programmable wallet infrastructure platform for building financial applications. It provides embedded wallets, authentication, transaction execution, and policy controls across 50+ blockchains including Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, and Tempo. Agents use Privy to authenticate users, create and manage wallets, execute transactions, enforce spending policies, and build complete financial products without building wallet infrastructure from scratch.

When to use

Reach for Privy when:

  • Building consumer apps that need user authentication + embedded wallets
  • Creating organization or treasury wallets with multi-sig controls
  • Building AI agents that need to hold assets and transact autonomously
  • Implementing spending policies, transaction limits, or approval workflows
  • Executing transactions across multiple blockchains from a single interface
  • Migrating users from another wallet provider
  • Setting up funding flows (fiat onramps, crypto deposits, card spend)
  • Implementing yield integrations or token swaps
  • Requiring role-based access control or delegation patterns

Do not use Privy for: pure authentication without wallets (use Auth0, Firebase instead), or if you need complete control over key management without any abstraction.
