Unlock, Inc. is the company behind Unlock Protocol, an open-source system built on the Ethereum blockchain and other EVM-compatible chains. Founded in 2018, its mission is to build a more equitable and decentralized web by allowing creators to monetize their work directly without relying on traditional intermediaries or advertisers. The protocol enables developers and creators to deploy smart contracts called "Locks" and sell "Keys" (in the form of NFTs) that grant access to various resources such as website content, software features, Discord server channels, and even physical events.
