# What is Spire?

<figure><img src="/files/CDzJZZlKYtT81fkdVwCF" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Spire Labs is a team focused on creating a unified developer experience for interacting with Ethereum.

We are targeting based rollups (L2s and L3s), tools for preconfirmations, and blob aggregation services to start making an impact. We believe that these core products have the opportunity to finally figure out crypto infra, once and for all.

The Spire vision is thousands of realtime, secure, customizable, and branded appchains all settling to and consuming services of the Ethereum network effect.

## 🎓 Learn about based rollups

If you're new to based rollups or want to learn more about what they are and how they work then check out our educational section for a high level overview:

[Ethereum L2 Based Rollups](/spire/education-hub/based-rollups-overview.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

## 🗼 Pylon

Pylon is an upcoming platform for launching based appchains that compose with and settle to popular Ethereum L2s such as █████,  ████, and ██████. Pylon supports customization but by default comes with a seamless developer experience that feels like you deployed your app directly onto your parent chain.

## 🧱 Based Stack

The Based Stack is an open-source framework for customizable L2 appchains with subsecond confirmations and Ethereum interoperability:

{% hint style="danger" %}
The Based Stack is [open source](https://github.com/spire-labs/based-stack), but development is currently paused. Please see: [What's holding L2 based rollups back today?](/spire/based-stack/whats-holding-l2-based-rollups-back-today.md)

## 📡 Preconf Router

The Preconf Router is an RPC endpoint that wallets and users can use to connect to Ethereum preconfirmation providers.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The Preconf Router is currently in private testnet and waiting for underlying preconf providers to launch to go to mainnet. It is still under active development.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://spire-docs.gitbook.io/spire/readme.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
