Release Notes

April 15, 2026 — ACE Beta (Private Release)

Chainlink ACE Beta is now available to a first set of selected participants as a private release. This initial release provides early access to the ACE platform.

What's included

ACE Beta ships with three core components:

  • Policy Manager — Create policy engines, register target contracts, configure policy instances from the pre-built library, and enforce compliance rules on-chain.
  • Identity Manager — Set up identity registries, register on-chain identities, define credential types, and issue verifiable credentials for use in identity-based policies.
  • Reporting Manager — Query on-chain policy configurations, identity states, and transaction history via a read-only API to support compliance verification and auditing workflows.

All three components support multi-chain deployments across all supported testnets and are accessible via the Chainlink Platform UI and the Coordinator and Reporting APIs, once Chainlink provisions your organization with ACE Beta access.

Scope and limitations

This is a testnet-only release. For full details on what is supported, known constraints, and planned additions, see Beta Scope.
