🎯Integrations Spotlight

  • Atlendis leverages Gelato’s automation for scheduled fee distribution. significantly minimizing order-book volatility during distribution. Thanks to Gelato automating the fee collection, Atlendis can ensure that lenders are periodically rewarded in the exact amount of fees earned over time. This scheduled process runs automatically in the background, with the complexities abstracted to Gelato to ensure that tasks continue to execute perfectly as intended.

“Atlendis is a credit protocol connecting permissionless lenders with institutional borrowers. Atlendis’ specificity is that lenders choose their borrower and their lending rate by depositing liquidity in a dedicated rate order book. Interest rate fees are distributed to lenders’ positions in a target lending rate tick on Atlendis’ order book, and the distribution depends on the deposit distribution on other ticks. We setup a Gelato automation that regularly checks fees distribution to reduce the impact of volatility in the order book deposits distribution. We then automate the fee collection and ensure that lenders got the exact share of the fees they earned”

Stéphane Coquet, CTO @ Atlendis Labs

Check out this great video by our Developer Advocate — Sarah, where she touches on the ways MakerDAO relies on Gelato automation, and how by integrating Gelato’s backend under the hood, protocols across web3 retain censorship resistance.
  • Mugen Finance implements Gelato’s automation for regular auto-compounding of MGN rewards on a daily basis.
  • InterestDeFi, a fractional reserve banking protocol uses Gelato to automate repaying low balances.
