Hidden Gems of the Tezos Ecosystem
5 More Tezos Tools You Might Not Know About
7 minute read
Okay, so…remember in Part II when I said a third part would be “inevitable at some point”?
Yeah. That “some point” is now.
The Tezos community just can’t stop building things, and honestly, I’m not complaining, it keeps these articles fun to make. Once again, I’ve gathered a fresh batch of tools that I’m pretty sure many people haven’t stumbled upon yet, even if they’re active in the ecosystem every day. And yes, a couple of them were new to me too.
From creative tools to dashboards and even some quirky utilities, here are 5 more hidden gems worth adding to your Tezos toolkit. Let’s get into it!
1. Hyper Minter #
First up is Hyper Minter, a tool created by Rexflexasaurus. It’s designed for anyone who wants to mint multiple NFTs at once, making it especially useful for artists working on series or collections.
With Hyper Minter, you can drag and drop multiple files, edit metadata for each item individually or in bulk, and then mint all your 1/1 NFTs in a single click. It supports images, videos, and audio, so it works well for a variety of projects.
If you’ve ever wondered whether minting could be a bit smoother or quicker when you’re dealing with more than a handful of items, Hyper Minter is worth exploring.
2. Bake Around Find Out (B.A.F.O.) #
Next is B.A.F.O., short for Bake Around Find Out, a tool created by FAFO Lab that gives you insight into one of Tezos’ core mechanics, baking and delegation.
With B.A.F.O., all you need is the address of a baker, and it will show you detailed stats about their performance and reliability. You can see things like missed blocks, endorsements, rewards over recent cycles, and how much tez has been delegated and staked to them. There’s no need to connect your wallet or grant permissions, just paste the baker’s address and explore the numbers.
Many of these stats can also be found on the explorer, but B.A.F.O. presents them in a much more comprehensive and accessible way, making it easier to quickly compare bakers and evaluate which ones are consistent and trustworthy. It’s especially handy if you’re considering delegating your tez or just want a clear view of how different bakers perform over time.
3. Tezos Collection Archiver #
Next up is Tezos Collection Archiver, created by JestemZero. This tool makes it easy to archive your NFT collection by just pasting a Tezos wallet address; no wallet connection needed. It scans your collection via the TzKT API, identifies whether tokens are on-chain, IPFS, or other storage formats, and lets you download artworks individually or as a full archive.
The tool also remembers multiple wallet addresses, so you can manage and revisit your collections over time. While some edge cases exist (like certain FxHash or on-chain collections with non-standard formats), it’s a handy solution for keeping a local backup of most NFTs, especially since off-chain links can break.
4. Tezos Storefront #
Tezos Storefront by TesserArt is a creator-focused tool that lets you build a clean, organized NFT storefront with zero coding. Even on the free plan, you can import your Tezos collections, manage them through the dashboard, and present everything in a polished layout right away, perfect for getting your presence online without friction.
For creators who want to go further, the paid tiers unlock additional customization options, expanded components, and more advanced features that make your storefront feel truly bespoke. It’s a flexible setup, start free, get comfortable, and scale into the paid plans whenever and if you want more control over the look and functionality.
If you’re curious to hear more directly from the team, Retro Manni recently hosted an X space with TesserArt where they walked through the platform and answered questions.
5. Tez.tools #
Rounding out this list is Tez.tools, a pair of lightweight but genuinely useful utilities created by GOGOLITUS. They’re simple, quick to use, and solve very specific problems that many collectors and curators run into.
The first one is Mosaic, which lets you generate clean image (or video) grids from a Tezos wallet, contract, or Objkt collection. Just paste a link or address and it instantly builds a collage out of the artworks — perfect for sharing a snapshot of your collection, assembling thumbnails for posts, or putting together curated visuals without manually editing anything.
The second tool is the Tezos Curator Comtool, designed for people who curate on Objkt. It takes your curation link and turns it into a ready-to-share visual layout, making it easier to promote your selections across social platforms. Again, no wallet connection needed, just paste the link and go.
Both tools are small, focused, and good at what they do. If you collect, curate, or just like showing off Tezos art in a more organized way, Tez.tools is a handy little stop to keep bookmarked.
And that wraps up Part III! By now, it should be pretty clear that every time I think I’ve caught up with Tezos tools, five more pop out from behind a corner like “hey, add us too.” I’ve already found more Tezos tools, so yes, a Part IV is absolutely happening. At this point it feels less like a sequel and more like an ongoing side-quest the ecosystem has assigned me.
Still, if you’ve stumbled across a tool that deserves some spotlight, drop it in the comments or send it my way. The builders behind these projects are constantly pushing things forward, and the least we can do is make sure their work gets seen and used.
Lastly, and in case you missed them, Part I and Part II also have some great Tezos tools, so until the next installment, have fun exploring, tinkering, and discovering the little gems hidden throughout the Tezos ecosystem. Who knows, maybe our new favorite tool is one we haven’t even seen yet.
