Rath Finance founder Aniket Sharma introduces Rath Terminal, a conversational interface for DeFi that lets people ask for yields, tokens, stocks and vouchers instead of juggling apps, gas and slippage. A live demo buys a Swiggy voucher with USDC, and the talk explains the execution, routing and yield infrastructure underneath, which searchers, keepers and liquidators already use.

[music] Hello everyone, I am Anik Sharma, founder of Rut Finance and today we are introducing Rut terminal. At Rut we are building D5 infrastructure for couple of years and we are mostly focus on improving execution speed, optimizing routes and latency. And like today DeFi is very powerful at its current state. It have thousands of protocol market assets across chain. But using it doesn't feel that powerful. We have to juggle through multiple apps
handle gas fees slippage and whatnot. Something which should take just a minute takes an hour to do. So but to in today's world there is new kind of UX which everyone is getting used to which is conversational interface. So what if we could just ask things like how much APY can I earn on my USGC buy me $100 of Tesla? What tokens are trending on Robin Hood and get me 500 rupees of Uber voucher. That is main idea behind red terminal and like you can just asking and it will get things done. We'll show you a demo.
So this is red terminal and like I'm asking to get me a swiggy voucher. So I just select how much money I want. It have portfolio awareness. So it selects USDC by default because I have one base. Then I just confirm >> and like after a few seconds I will like get my voucher on my email. I don't have to go through complex UX and all to get this done.
So this thing came on my email. Yeah, this is like voucher. By the way, this is not used. So, you can take a photo of it and use it. >> It will give you money on Swiggy. Launch coins, discover markets, earn defy yield, invest in different stocks, equity and manage your portfolio and you can connect any wallet whichever you like. Red terminal is built on rut infra which we are building from couple of
years and it is live since like last year. Techon is like our execution engine which let you send transaction very fast on chain. XPath is our routing layer and yield API like let you route your position through different yield protocols. This is already live and used by searchers, keepers, liquidators and multiple apps to improve their UX. So we build this infra not just for terminal for everyone to use and you guys can use it. Beta access for terminal is life.
