# Arrakis Pro

Arrakis Pro is a non-custodial onchain market maker for token issuers. It manages concentrated liquidity on DEXs through self-custodial vaults: the issuer owns the vault and the assets in it, and Arrakis runs the market-making strategy within the parameters the issuer sets. The result is treasury-owned liquidity that is actively managed without the issuer operating it.

Across live deployments, Arrakis Pro manages liquidity for over 100 token issuers and has facilitated more than \$5B in onchain volume.

## The problem

Concentrated liquidity, introduced by Uniswap v3, allows LPs to provide deeper markets per dollar than standard full-range positions by concentrating capital around the trading price. That capital efficiency comes at an operational cost: as the price moves the position must be continuously rebalanced, fees must be tuned to volatility, and inventory must be actively managed to stay in range. For teams managing this in house, it generally requires a full-time quant function. Without active management, concentrated positions quickly fall out of range, stop earning fees, and leak value to arbitrageurs and active LPs.

Arrakis Pro manages this automatically. Teams deposit into a vault, select their strategy, and Arrakis manages the position continuously: rebalancing as the price moves, adjusting fees to market conditions, and keeping liquidity concentrated where trading happens.

## How Arrakis Pro works

Arrakis Pro is built from two components: an onchain smart-contract framework and an offchain market-making system.

### **Self-custodial vault.**

Each Arrakis Pro vault is owned by the team and represented by an NFT, the way a Uniswap v3 position is. Whoever holds the vault NFT controls the assets and can pause, reconfigure, or withdraw at any time. Arrakis can adjust the strategy as part of active management, but cannot move funds outside the vault. Because the NFT carries withdrawal rights, transferring it transfers control of the underlying funds.

### **Modular onchain framework.**

The vault is a modular smart contract: a core vault, a per-DEX module that holds the liquidity, and an optional Uniswap v4 hook for features like dynamic fees. Arrakis's modular design allows it to run on any concentrated-liquidity DEX rather than a single venue, and a vault to move between DEXs or add capabilities without redeploying.

### **Strategy infrastructure.**

Arrakis's market-making system monitors price, volatility, and inventory, computes when and how to rebalance, sets dynamic fees, and submits those instructions to the vault. It operates continuously, with no gas cost or manual action required from the team.

## Arrakis Strategies

Each vault runs a strategy chosen by the team:

<Columns cols={2}>
  <Card title="Bootstrap" icon="rocket" href="docs.arrakis.finance/bootstrap">
    Accumulates quote-side assets (ETH or stablecoins) at launch when inventory is skewed toward the project token.

  <Card title="Flagship" icon="anchor" href="/flagship">
    The ongoing strategy for mature markets, concentrating around spot and adapting to volatility.

  <Card title="Yield-Bearing Asset" icon="percent" href="/yield-bearing-asset">
    Holds sell-side depth in range for tokens that accrue value through yield.

    Converts project tokens into quote assets over time through organic trading.

## Features

Uniswap v4 hooks add capability on top of a strategy, configured at deployment:

  <Card title="Price Convergence" icon="money-bill-trend-up" href="/price-convergence">
    Aligns the pool price with an external reference, for RWAs that track an off-chain value.

  <Card title="Dynamic Fees" icon="gauge" href="/dynamic-fees">
    Adjusts the fee tier to volatility and trading momentum, capturing more on volatile flow and less on quiet flow.

## Getting started

<Steps>
  <Step title="Deploy and configure">
    Arrakis deploys and configures the vault on the team's behalf.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Transfer the vault NFT">
    Arrakis transfers the vault NFT to the team's multisig. The team keeps custody throughout.
