Why Flint beats building your own prop AMM.
Over half of Solana's DEX volume already routes through aggregators. Flint runs the on-chain books and matches that flow — your quoting logic plugs in. No prop AMM to build, no stack to run.

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's the stack behind one quote. Building it from scratch 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 — so 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 user-friendly 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 doesn't shut you out.
Efficient quote refreshes
Update a fair price plus offsets instead of rewriting full order state. Oracle offsets, order lists, and linear distribution keep refreshes cheap.
Pre-integrated aggregators
Match incoming taker flow directly from Jupiter, DFlow, and Titan. OKX DEX is in progress.
USDC mini-books + synthetic crosses
One market account per token, an isolated USDC book per maker. JTO/SOL derives from JTO/USDC ÷ SOL/USDC on demand.
Capital recycling
A SOL ask brings USDC in, and that USDC instantly backs your SOL bid. Run a two-sided book from a one-sided deposit — fills cycle through your quotes.
Built for non-native desks
Standard APIs, auth-wallet safety, and direct team support. No Solana stack to learn before you can quote.
