The Graph Strengthens Web3 Data Access With Six Specialized Products in 2026

• The Graph has published its roadmap for the year, with one of its key targets being to expand access to data analysts, AI agents and enterprise users.
• It has outlined six specialized projects for the year: subgraphs, Blockchain JSON-RPC Data Service, substreams, Token API, Tycho and Amp.

The Graph has become the latest blockchain network to publish a roadmap for the year, detailing how it intends to evolve to meet shifting consumer demands. In 2026, the network wants to expand beyond being the go-to platform for querying blockchain data, but also for streaming, standardizing and making it ready-to-use for apps and institutional platforms.

The network is aiming to be the “multi-service infrastructure for the onchain economy,” it stated in its announcement.

The roadmap is built on three pillars: the protocol layer, the product layer and the economic layer. The first pillar deals with the infrastructure, outlining a plan to expand beyond the original Subgraph-centric infrastructure. The launch of Horizon last December was the first vital step. Horizon turned The Graph into a modular platform that can be used by any blockchain network, not just an ecosystem built around one product: the Subgraphs.

The roadmap states:

Under the economic layer, the focus is sustainability and long-term viability. The network wants to balance value for all participants, from the indexers that run the infrastructure and the delegators securing the network to the developers and enterprises consuming the data.

Over the past five years, The Graph has focused on scaling the supply side, with most of the effort going to attracting indexers to the network. This year, it will boost demand, and Horizon was the first step. Horizon allows the network to expand its product suite, making it easier for developers and AI agents to integrate blockchain data directly into their operations.

The network will also offer on-premises deployment options and products that are compliance ready for enterprise users.

Finally, on the product layer, the network plans to launch new data products that will accelerate retail adoption. One of the goals is to expand the use of Subgraphs, which the network says is now being used by thousands of applications across most top blockchains.

This year, The Graph will expand support for small-to-medium-sized projects using Subgraphs by reducing the cost and expanding scale. It will also increase AI compatibility, allowing users to query blockchain data through natural language platforms like Claude and ChatGPT.

The network will also explore blockchain JSON-RPC access, expanding its services beyond queries tied solely to indexed data, and into the read-write interface. This can be through new internal applications or through partnerships and integrations.

On Substreams, the network will expand developer experience and chain coverage. Substreams are a blockchain data streaming engine where users can process blockchain data in real time.

The network will also push the adoption of Token API, which is built on Substreams infrastructure to provide standardized and reliable token data. It currently supports 10 chains.

Lastly, The Graph will focus on DeFi-focused service Tycho and Amp, a data platform catering to enterprise and institutional users.

The Graph joins dozens of other networks that have published roadmaps for the year, from Pi Network to Ethereum and Stellar, as we have reported. AI has featured prominently, with some projects like Theta Network and ICP making it a core focus for the year.
