Introduction

Venum is Solana execution infrastructure for builders. It provides the layer between raw RPC and your application — swap building, routing, Jito bundle submission, and real-time pool state.

What Venum Does

Every trading bot, wallet, Telegram bot, and dApp on Solana rebuilds the same painful stack:

1. DEX integration — Understanding 12+ DEX protocols, their account layouts, instruction formats
2. Route optimization — Finding the best pool for a given swap across all DEXes
3. Transaction building — Composing instructions, compute budgets, blockhash management
4. Jito bundle submission — Jito bundles, retry logic, rebroadcast
5. Real-time data — Pool state, price feeds, new pool detection

Venum handles all of this. You get an unsigned transaction you can inspect, modify, and sign client-side instead of an opaque submitted blob.

Venum vs Jupiter

	Venum	Jupiter API
Output	Unsigned transaction you can inspect and modify before signing	Serialized TX blob — take it or leave it
Rate limits	Generous (Free / Starter / Pro tiers)	Strict quotas
Pool state	Real-time streaming	Not available
Submission	Bundle submission, built-in	Not included

Supported DEXes

DEX	Type	Protocol
Orca Whirlpool	Concentrated liquidity	CLMM
Raydium CLMM	Concentrated liquidity	CLMM
Raydium AMM V4	Constant product	AMM
Raydium CPMM	Constant product	AMM
Meteora DLMM	Dynamic liquidity	Bin-based
Meteora Dynamic	Constant product	Mercurial vaults
Meteora DAMM V2	Dynamic AMM	V2
PumpSwap	Constant product	pAMM
Phoenix	Order book	CLOB
Orca Token Swap	Constant product	Legacy
Saber	Stable swap	StableSwap
Numeraire	Stable swap	1bps fee

Venum API (api.venum.dev)
    ├─ POST /v1/quote        → Ranked routes across all major Solana DEXes
    ├─ POST /v1/swap/build   → Unsigned TX (you sign)
    └─ POST /v1/swap         → Submit via bundles

Venum Execution Engine

Ecosystem

Beyond the hosted API, Venum also has an open-source ecosystem for terminal workflows, coding agents, and lower-level infrastructure work.

How They Fit Together

• Use the hosted API when you want the main Venum execution surface.
• Use the CLI when you want shell, CI, or terminal-native workflows.
• Use MCP when you want a stable tool surface for coding agents or trading agents.
• Use Skills when you want reusable agent workflows on top of MCP and the CLI.
• Use the Yellowstone Rust client when you want a lower-level Rust-native infrastructure component and are comfortable with an early public tool.
