Getting started
Ophis turns a sentence into a settled, MEV-protected swap. There's no token-picker to fight and no router to configure — you describe the trade, review it, and sign.
Your first swap
- Open ophis.fi and connect a wallet.
- Type what you want in plain English, for example:
swap 100 USDC for ETH on Basebuy 50 USDC of PEPE on ethereum1 ETH to USDC on op
- Ophis parses your sentence into a structured order (sell token, buy token, amount, chain) and pre-fills the swap form.
- Review the quote and sign the order with your wallet. Nothing leaves your wallet until a solver settles the trade.
:::note Non-custodial by design Ophis never takes possession of your funds. The signed order is broadcast to the solver network; your tokens move only when a solver settles the batch on-chain. :::
How it works
Three steps from your sentence to settlement:
1 · Intent — parse the request
You type a swap in plain English. An open LLM (LibertAI's Qwen 3.6 27B, hosted on Aleph Cloud) extracts the sell token, buy token, amount, and chain into a structured order. The model runs behind a server-side proxy so its API key never reaches the browser. See the Intent API for the public endpoint.
2 · Auction — solver competition
Your signed order is broadcast to a batch auction. Solvers race to find the best path — an on-chain DEX, a peer-to-peer match against another order in the same batch, or a cross-chain route — and bid for the right to settle it.
3 · Settle — on-chain, MEV-protected
The winning solver settles your order in a batch where every trade clears at the same uniform price. There's no front-running, no sandwiching, and no priority-gas auction to win, because the protocol does not reorder transactions for value.
For the full lifecycle, see How it works.
Supported networks
Ophis surfaces 11 EVM chains as source / destination in the network selector:
| Ethereum | Arbitrum One | Avalanche |
| Base | BNB Smart Chain | Gnosis Chain |
| Ink | Linea | Optimism |
| Plasma | Polygon |
Plus Solana and Bitcoin as cross-chain destinations via NEAR Intents — trade from any EVM source chain to those networks without a second wallet. You paste a destination address and sign with your EVM wallet; NEAR Intents brokers the bridge.
Around 150+ tokens are recognised across stablecoins, ETH/BTC pegs, DeFi blue-chips, AI/RWA, memes, and gaming.
