# What Is Auto — AI Trading Agent Auto is an AI trading agent that executes trades across crypto, stocks, prediction markets, and DeFi through natural language conversation. Auto provides one account, one chat interface, and access to supported markets -- with routing, approvals, and gas handling managed in the flow. HyperEVM still requires native HYPE for gas. Auto is built by the team at [auto.fun](https://auto.fun). ## What is Auto? Auto is an AI-powered trading assistant that turns plain English instructions into executed trades. Instead of navigating multiple exchanges, wallets, and DeFi protocols manually, you tell Auto what you want and it handles execution automatically. Auto supports six market types from a single interface: | Market | What Auto does | Protocols and venues | | ------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Crypto spot trading** | Swap tokens on supported chains where routes exist | 0x, CoW Protocol, Jupiter, Relay, Enso, Fabric, DFlow, Near Intents, Uniswap, ZFI | | **Crypto perpetual futures** | Open long or short positions with leverage up to 10x | Hyperliquid | | **Tokenized stocks and commodities** | Buy TSLA, AAPL, NVDA, GOLD, SILVER as on-chain tokens | xStocks (Backed/Kraken), Ondo Global Markets, Hyperliquid Builder DEX | | **Prediction markets** | Trade outcomes on elections, crypto prices, sports, world events | Polymarket | | **DeFi lending and yield** | Supply tokens to earn yield, borrow, repay, and withdraw | Aave V3, Morpho, HypurrFi | | **Limit orders** | Set price targets with MEV-protected fills | CoW Protocol (EVM), Jupiter Trigger (Solana) | ## How does Auto work? Auto uses an embedded wallet system powered by Privy. When you sign in, Auto creates a secure non-custodial wallet that works across the primary supported wallet networks. You interact through natural language chat, and Auto translates your intent into on-chain transactions. The process works in four steps: 1. **Sign in** using email, Google, Discord, GitHub, Telegram, or wallet sign-in when enabled 2. **Get a wallet** -- Auto creates a secure embedded wallet instantly, no seed phrases needed 3. **Tell Auto what to do** in plain English (e.g., "Long BTC 5x" or "Buy $200 of Tesla stock") 4. **Auto executes** -- it selects the best route, protocol, and chain, then confirms before executing Gas fees are sponsored on most wallet flows except HyperEVM. Auto prepares the route, required approvals, and execution confirmation in the flow so you do not manually switch networks. ## What chains does Auto support? Auto operates across the primary supported wallet networks: | Chain | Gas token | Swap | Bridge | DeFi lending | Gas sponsored | | ------------------- | --------- | --------------- | --------------- | ------------ | ------------- | | **Ethereum** | ETH | Yes | Yes | Aave, Morpho | Yes | | **Base** | ETH | Yes | Yes | Aave | Yes | | **Arbitrum** | ETH | Yes | Yes | Aave | Yes | | **Optimism** | ETH | Yes | Yes | Aave | Yes | | **Polygon** | POL | Yes | Yes | Aave | Yes | | **Solana** | SOL | Yes | Yes | No | Yes | | **BNB Smart Chain** | BNB | Route-dependent | Route-dependent | No | Yes | | **Avalanche** | AVAX | Route-dependent | Route-dependent | No | Yes | | **Linea** | ETH | Route-dependent | Route-dependent | No | Yes | | **Scroll** | ETH | Route-dependent | Route-dependent | No | Yes | | **Unichain** | ETH | Route-dependent | Route-dependent | No | Yes | | **HyperEVM** | HYPE | Yes | Limited | HypurrFi | No | Auto routes transactions to the cheapest and fastest chain automatically. You only need to specify a chain when you have a preference. ## What else can Auto do besides trading? Auto includes market intelligence, portfolio management, automation, and analytics tools: | Category | Capabilities | | ---------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Portfolio management** | Cross-chain portfolio view, rebalancing suggestions, yield optimization for idle tokens | | **Market intelligence** | Live token prices, price charts, in-app TradingView chart analysis, trending tokens, technical analysis (RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, multi-timeframe) | | **On-chain analytics** | Smart money tracking, whale activity, fund flows, holder analysis via Nansen when connected | | **Trader analytics** | Analyze any Hyperliquid trader's PnL, positions, fills, and Intel Score | | **Social intelligence** | Crypto Twitter sentiment, narrative tracking, news aggregation | | **Automation** | Price alerts, recurring technical analysis briefings, portfolio monitoring tasks, and bounded wallet-swap automations | | **Stock technical analysis** | Full indicator suite on 523+ US stocks (S\&P 500, NASDAQ 100, Dow Jones) | | **Gamification** | Points, levels, streaks, leaderboards, referral rewards | ## Who is Auto designed for? Auto serves three user profiles: * **New traders** who want a guided experience -- Auto explains what is happening, warns about risks, and prevents common mistakes like sending to wrong addresses or trading with excessive leverage. * **Active traders** who want speed -- natural language is faster than navigating 10 different apps. Multi-step operations like "research, bridge, swap" execute in one conversation. * **DeFi power users** who want one interface for on-chain analytics, smart money tracking, technical analysis, yield optimization, and automated monitoring. ## How is Auto different from other trading tools? Auto combines execution and intelligence in one conversational interface. Most trading tools require you to use separate apps for research, execution, and portfolio management. Auto handles all three from a single chat. | Feature | Auto | Typical DEX or exchange | | ------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------- | | Multi-chain execution | Primary supported wallet networks, automatic routing | Usually 1 chain per app | | Natural language trading | Yes | No | | Gas sponsorship | Sponsored on most flows, except HyperEVM | No | | Built-in market research | Technical analysis, on-chain data, news | Usually separate tools | | Prediction market access | Polymarket integration | Not available | | Stock trading | Tokenized stocks via xStocks, Ondo, Hyperliquid | Not available | ## Example commands Here are examples of what you can tell Auto: > "Swap $50 of ETH to USDC on Base" > "Long BTC 5x with $200" > "Buy $200 of Tesla stock" > "Bet $50 YES on Bitcoin hitting 150k" > "Show me the best USDC yields and deposit into the top one" > "Analyze Hyperliquid trader 0xecb63..." > "Alert me when ETH goes above $4,000" > "Run multi-timeframe technical analysis on SOL" --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
