The neutral vault OS.
For active managers and their LPs.
Turn tokenized real-world assets and DeFi yield into institutional products your LPs can plug into — built on a decade of custom smart-contract engineering.
The tokenized economy is stuck under wrappers.
Tokenized assets crossed USD 320B in Q1 2026 (incl. stablecoins) — but 77.6% run as wrapper-only tokens, unable to compose with DeFi, TradFi, or each other.
1 Source: Pantera Capital — State of Tokenization: Q1 2026. The 77.6% wrapper-only share and USD 320B market size are stated in the report; percentages exclude native crypto assets and include stablecoins in the denominator. Engineering cycle benchmark based on Protofire's ~250 delivered projects since 2016.
Five properties no off-the-shelf vault platform delivers.
Client-Owned EVM Contracts
Your institution holds the upgrade keys. No tenant-on-shared-protocol. Sovereign by design.
Multi-Vertical Composability
Lending, RWA, staking, LP, perps, and prediction in a single vault. No vertical lock-in.
Per-Role Policy DSL
Human-readable, versioned, approval-gated. Compliance reads it. Engineering doesn't translate.
ERC-7540 Native
Asynchronous capital calls and NAV windows as first-class flows. Built for fund cadence.
AI-Augmented Operations
Optional AI for strategy, anomaly detection, reporting — always bounded by policy.
One operating system.
Three sides of the vault economy.
Active managers run their products on VaultOS. Capital deploys through them. Yield sources plug in as adapters. The network layer orchestrates trust and governance.

Six exits.
Every institutional vault needs an exit. VaultOS ships six mechanisms and switches on the one the asset and the investor actually need — not a one-size-fits-all pool.
Fast Exit Pool
Out now at a set discount (e.g. −5%), funded by paid risk capital — not the issuer.
Reverse-Dutch Auction
List a position; discount starts at 0% and rises until a buyer fills. Price is discovered — no standing pool.
NAV Redemption Cap
Withdraw at NAV under a public rule (e.g. 5%/quarter), enforced on-chain. Fair and transparent.
Composability Wrapper
Wrap to a standard receipt and route to external venues — or borrow against the position instead of selling.
Eligibility-Gated OTC
A KYC-gated RFQ desk for block trades; settlement validates the whitelist privately on-chain.
Coverage Overlay
Buyers stand ready to purchase only on a trigger (default, depeg) at a set discount, earning a premium.
The underlying's liquidity, price behavior and investor type decide the exit.Long-dated assets need an exit; instantly-redeemable ones need downside protection.
Stop spending months on vault plumbing.
Same product. A fraction of the time and cost. Engineering rigor inherited from a decade of production deployments.
| Dimension | Build in-house | Run on VaultOS |
|---|---|---|
| Time to live product | 3–6 months of build cycles | Weeks, not months |
| Engineering + audit cost per product | USD 300K–500K+ | USD 60–160K (deployment) |
| Multi-vertical from day one | Rebuild per vertical | Native composability |
| Compliance-readable policies | Custom translation each time | Built-in DSL |
| Sovereign upgrade authority | Negotiated per stack | Default (client-owned contracts) |
| Time to second product | Same as first | Days, not months |
In-house range assumes senior smart-contract talent, ≥2 audit passes, integration work per vertical; excludes ongoing maintenance headcount.
