## Summary

Trustless Work provides Escrow-as-a-Service infrastructure for developers, startups, and enterprises to integrate milestone-based stablecoin payments into their products. Funds are held in non-custodial smart contracts, not by Trustless Work itself. The platform supports single-release and multi-release escrows with configurable roles: Service Provider, Approver, Platform Address, Release Signer, Dispute Resolver, and Receiver. Use cases span marketplaces, freelance work, grants, crowdfunding, security deposits, P2P exchanges, trade finance, microfinance, and AI agent payments. Builders can start with the BackOffice dApp for manual testing, use the Escrow Viewer for transparency, integrate via React SDK or API, or leverage prebuilt Blocks SDK components. AI-native tools including MCP server and Vibe Coding guides accelerate development.
