Why Flint beats building your own prop AMM.
Over half of Solana's DEX volume routes through aggregators. Flint runs the on-chain books and matches that flow — your quoting logic just plugs in. No prop AMM to build, no stack to run.
Demo order book — not live data
01 — Why Flint
The AMM is the easy part. Everything around it is the job.
Matching, priority fees, landing, risk, custody, RPCs, aggregator integrations. That is the stack behind one quote. Building it yourself is a second company.
02 — How it works
Your quotes meet taker flow on-chain.
A multi-maker prop AMM merges every maker's quoting intents into one virtual book and fills pro-rata. One desk is never locked into one AMM curve.

03 — The details
Six things you get without building them.
SDKs, risk guards, capital recycling, custody hygiene. The layer that makes a desk's life genuinely easier.
Multi-maker pro-rata fills
Makers quote side by side and share flow pro-rata. Sharper pricing earns priority, but a step of latency does not shut you out.
Cheap refreshes
You re-send a fair price plus offsets instead of rewriting full order state. Oracle offsets, order lists, and linear distribution keep each tick small.
Pre-integrated aggregators
Taker flow lands on your book from Jupiter, DFlow, and Titan. OKX DEX is being wired up.
Isolated USDC mini-books
One market account per token, an isolated USDC book per maker. Pairs like JTO/SOL derive on demand from the two books.
Capital recycling
A SOL ask brings USDC in, and that USDC instantly backs your SOL bid. A two-sided book runs off a one-sided deposit.
Built for non-native desks
Standard APIs, wallet auth that stays safe, and a team that answers. You do not need to know Solana before you can quote.
