DFlow: Solana spot Trading API (Pond docs) logoDFlow: Solana spot Trading API (Pond docs)
One Trading API. Quote, sign, submit. JIT routing. No protocol fee.
devrels.xyz/a/345DFlow is a Solana spot trading protocol. One Trading API for apps. Developer docs live on Pond: pond.dflow.net/introduction. Product site dflow.net. X @dflow. LinkedIn company/dflow-protocol. No protocol fee on spot. You can add your own platform fee.
Flow is imperative: request /order with input mint, output mint, amount, then sign the returned transaction, then submit to your RPC. JIT routing re-optimizes at execution. Optional GET /intent is the declarative path for sandwich protection. Token-2022 mints are not supported on /intent.

Not every “swap API” is the same product. Here is what each aggregator layer actually gives your app — routing engines, landing, fees, AI tooling, and when to call whom.
Backpack Exchange processes orders through a single linear command stream into one matching engine. The API uses ED25519 keypair auth — no API-key secrets, just public/private keypairs you control. REST at api.backpack.exchange, WebSocket at wss://ws.backpack.exchange. Official Rust SDK; community Python SDK on PyPI.
