Primary features
The Safe wallet is the industry-standard modular smart account infrastructure — formerly Gnosis Safe — providing individuals, DAOs, protocols, and institutions with programmable N-of-M multisig wallets deployed across 15+ EVM chains, with the ability to extend functionality through a rich ecosystem of 190+ modules, guards, and plugins. Far beyond a simple multisig, the Safe platform is evolving into the Safe{Core} Protocol — an open, vendor-agnostic standard designed to make smart accounts interoperable, portable, and composable across the entire EVM ecosystem.
- N-of-M Multisig — Fully customizable threshold signing — e.g. 2-of-3 or 3-of-5 — across EOAs, hardware wallets, and other contracts.
- Modular Smart Accounts — Plugins, hooks, guards, and fallback handlers extend Safe's core without touching base contracts.
- Safe Shield — Real-time treasury monitoring, transaction simulation, and risk insights built directly into the interface.
- Transaction Builder — Batch and schedule complex DeFi operations in a single atomic on-chain execution.
In short, the Safe platform is the foundational self-custody standard for onchain organisations — combining battle-tested security with the programmability required to manage any treasury at any scale

User benefits
The Safe platform allows individuals, teams, and institutions to eliminate the single-point-of-failure risk inherent in single-key wallets — distributing signing authority across multiple keys, devices, and signers with fully programmable policies that scale from a personal two-device setup to a DAO treasury with dozens of co-signers.
- Multisig threshold enforcement means no single compromised or lost key can ever unilaterally move funds.
- Safe Shield's transaction simulation catches malicious or erroneous transactions before they are signed and executed.
- Spending limits and role-based access allow DAOs and protocols to delegate operational control without granting full treasury authority.
- The 190+ module ecosystem enables teams to add recovery mechanisms, DeFi integrations, automation, and compliance tooling without redeploying core contracts.
- Full account portability under the Safe{Core} Protocol ensures treasuries are never locked into a single interface, wallet provider, or chain.
Overall, the Safe platform exists as the definitive answer to onchain treasury security — providing trusted, programmable, and battle-tested smart account infrastructure available, equally suited to an individual power user protecting personal holdings and a global protocol managing billions in community funds.
