Giving AI Access to Crypto
Ship an LLM that can trade, lend, and rebalance in 3 minutes. The fastest way to launch AI-first crypto products.
Introduction
LLMs are revolutionising the way people interact with computers. Blockchains are enabling a new financial system for the internet era that is accessible to everyone.
Compass-LangChain connects the two. It gives LLMs the ability to interact with crypto networks, in a way that is secure , reliable and production grade — i.e. dependable for millions of users every day.
Picture all the core primitives of traditional finance, rebuilt on the blockchain — and now your AI can use it. All securely, non-custodially, using natural language.
Why it matters
After years in crypto, we’ve seen LLMs getting pretty good at analysing markets. But when it came to actually taking action — swapping tokens, lending, or moving funds — they hit a wall.
Compass-LangChain is the first toolkit that lets AI take actions on-chain without compromising control.
It’s designed for building financial apps where humans and AI work together.
How it works
Two simple things make this possible:
- Describe what you want in plain language; the toolkit handles the rest.
The LLM connects to a universal DeFi interface that speaks to protocols and blockchains.
2. The model never touches your funds
The toolkit is built from the ground up to keep your funds separate from the AI. It only returns unsigned transactions. You, your app, or your wallet decide what gets signed and send.
What you can build
Whether you’re building a new crypto product or adding AI to an existing UI, Compass-LangChainis the layer it runs on.
Examples of what you can build:
- Personal finance assistants: A chat-based assistant that helps users lend, stake, or rebalance.
- On-chain trading copilots: Agents that monitor markets, spot opportunities, and tee up unsigned transactions.
- In-wallet assistants: AI widgets that help users interact with DeFi inside your app — via chat.
- LLM-powered protocol UI: Turn any protocol into a natural language interface.
