About Subsecond
Twelve products, one foundation, one network.
Every product here rests on one fact about Arc: a USDC transfer is final on inclusion, in under a second, for about a tenth of a cent. Each of the twelve is a mechanism that only becomes possible once that is true.

The standard
- Every product is a standalone, production application with its own identity, its own repository level README, and its own deployment. They share code, never a look.
- Every product is fully explorable with no wallet and no funds. What you see with nothing connected is the product, running against seeded state that is clearly labelled simulated, and it is how buyers and reviewers first see it.
- Every write is optimistic. The interface moves before the receipt lands, because on Arc it lands in under a second, and it rolls back with a reason on the rare occasion it does not.
- Mobile is designed on its own where the desktop layout does not translate. Ninety or better on mobile Lighthouse across performance, accessibility, best practices and SEO.
- Motion carries meaning. Numerals roll because money moved; a pulse slows because a runway shrank; a line settles heavily because a door closed.
What is real and what is simulated
With nothing connected, each product runs on seeded state produced by the same logic that governs the real thing: the same compiler, the same evaluator, the same vitals math. That state is labelled simulated wherever it appears. Connect a wallet and the product reads and writes Arc mainnet: real balances, real transfers, real refusals. Where a product needs a contract or a runtime that is not yet funded, its page says so in plain words rather than pretending.
