EZKL is a Rust-based library and command-line tool that converts deep learning models and arbitrary computational graphs (exported as ONNX) into ZK-SNARK circuits, enabling provable machine-learning inference using the Halo2 proof system. Generated proofs can be verified cheaply on-chain (EVM), in a browser, or on a device, and the tool is usable from Python, JavaScript, or the command line.
Use cases
- prove a neural network was run on private data without revealing the data
- prove a private model was run correctly on public data without revealing model weights
- verify ML inference results on-chain in an Ethereum smart contract
- generate zk-snark proofs from ONNX models
- audit that a reported model accuracy benchmark is genuine
- run verifiable AI/analytics where results must be trusted
- do zero-knowledge machine learning inference (ZKML)
When to choose
- You need verifiable AI: provable correctness of model execution where inputs or weights must stay private
- You want a smart contract to verify ML inference output without running the model on-chain
- Your models come from PyTorch/TensorFlow and can be exported to ONNX
- You need proofs verifiable on EVM, in browsers, or on resource-constrained devices
When to avoid
- You only need fast or cheap ML inference with no trust/verification requirement - ZK proving adds significant overhead
- Your computational graph relies on operations the ZK circuit backend cannot yet support
- You require a project with an explicit open-source license for procurement or compliance purposes
