How TEND Works

TEND runs like a hedge fund — except the fund manager's reasoning is public, and the smart contract enforces accountability at every step.

01 / Deposit

Your USDC. Working.

Deposit USDC into a fund. Say "I want 12% yield, medium risk." The fund manager handles everything from there — no charts to watch, no manual rebalancing, no decisions to make.

24/7 Yield Radar.

Every 60 seconds, the agent polls live APY data from all protocols. Credible Finance at 16%. JLP perp fees at 12%. OnRe reinsurance at 10.2%. Kamino vaults at 9.5%. When yields shift, the agent detects it instantly.

Spike detected — JLP jumped to 31.4%
03 / Committee

Not one agent. A committee.

TEND runs multiple specialized AI agents in layers before any capital moves. A yield analyst, a risk agent, and an execution agent — each with a specific mandate. All three must agree before the contract allows money to move.

The same checks-and-balances structure hedge funds use with human PMs, analysts, and risk officers — applied to AI agents, enforced by smart contract.

Yield Analyst

Scans JLP, Kamino, Credible, OnRe every 60s. Ranks protocols by risk-adjusted APY.

Risk Agent

Validates allocation against policy: max 40% per protocol, min 10% liquidity buffer, max drawdown limits.

Execution Agent

Writes reasoning on-chain via log_decision. Contract verifies proof exists before execute_rebalance is allowed.

✓ All three must agree before money moves
04 / Decide

The Two-Step Guarantee

The smart contract enforces this: reasoning must be written on-chain before any capital moves. No exceptions.

Step A: log_decision
Confirmed on-chain
Step B: execute_rebalance
Waiting for Step A...

Reasoning goes on-chain first. Only then can money move.

This is not a feature. It is a constraint enforced by the smart contract.

PERMANENT

Every Decision. Forever.

Every agent decision is a permanent Solana account. The reasoning, the allocation change, the timestamp — all immutable. Anyone can read it. Anyone can audit the agent.

This is Proof of Reasoning — the accountability standard that makes AI agents trustworthy.

06 / Protection

Capital spread. Risk spread.

Every single-protocol position carries the same structural risk. When 100% of your capital sits in one protocol, there's no buffer when something goes wrong — exploit, pause, depeg, or liquidity crunch.

TEND's policy contract enforces a maximum 40% allocation to any single protocol — on-chain, not configurable. If one protocol has an incident, your vault has at most 40% exposed, never 100%.

Max 40% in any single protocol — enforced by smart contract
Minimum 10% liquidity buffer always maintained
Risk agent validates every allocation before execution
Incident detected = automatic redistribution to safest protocol
Sentinel — watching 24/7

One agent does nothing but watch for threats.

Sentinel runs every 10 seconds — six times faster than the yield optimizer. Its only job: monitor every integrated protocol for signals that precede exploits.

When Sentinel fires, it logs a RiskAction on-chain and executes an emergency exit before the next yield cycle. Reasoning recorded permanently before any money moves.

Signals Sentinel watches
APY spike 3× above rolling baseline

Inflated incentives are a common pre-exploit signal — attracting liquidity before a drain.

APY collapse to near-zero

A protocol that suddenly stops emitting yield has likely been paused, frozen, or drained.

TVL drop >20% in one tick

Mass withdrawals by insiders often precede public knowledge of an incident.

Protocol unreachable / RPC errors

If a protocol goes dark, Sentinel exits preemptively rather than waiting.

→ Emergency exit written on-chain before any funds move. Always.
