What are Starknet RPC Services?
Starknet RPC Services provide remote procedure call (RPC) endpoints that enable developers to interact with the Starknet Layer 2 blockchain. These services offer access to blockchain data, transaction submission, contract calls, and event queries without running a full node. Tools in this category include hosted RPC providers, node infrastructure platforms, and API services tailored for Starknet's unique architecture and Cairo-based smart contracts.
The primary users are developers building dapps, wallets, and tooling on Starknet who need reliable, scalable, and low-latency access to the network. Key characteristics of these services include high availability, support for Starknet-specific RPC methods, and compatibility with standard Ethereum JSON-RPC where applicable. Subcategories may include dedicated node providers and API aggregators. Developers should consider Starknet RPC Services when they require stable and performant network access without the overhead of managing their own nodes.
