Overview

1

Project Vision

Aegis is an AutoFi (Automated Finance) protocol deployed on the Base network. The primary vision of Aegis is to democratize professional-grade DeFi investment management through an autonomous agent system. By leveraging artificial intelligence, Aegis achieves fully automated capital allocation, risk assessment, and yield optimization, allowing users to transcend manual interaction with complex protocols.

The system operates on the core belief that efficient capital growth requires continuous monitoring and rapid execution—capabilities that are inherent to algorithmic agents but resource-intensive for individual investors.

Defining AutoFi

AutoFi, or Automated Finance, represents the evolution of DeFi interactions. Unlike traditional aggregators that require manual selection and execution, Aegis acts as an active manager. It is not merely a tool for execution but a system for decision-making and lifecycle management.

Through Aegis, the investment process—from opportunity identification to position rebalancing—is handled entirely by the backend infrastructure, requiring no ongoing intervention from the user.

Core Value Proposition

Interactive Simplicity (Natural Language First)

Aegis fundamentally reimagines DeFi interaction through Interactive Minimalism. Instead of navigating complex dashboards, users manage their finances through a natural language chat interface.

  • Conversational Control: Deposit, withdraw, or query your portfolio simply by talking to the agent.

  • Intent-Based: The system uses advanced NLP to translate your intent (e.g., "I want low risk yields") into precise on-chain execution.

Professional Yield Management

The protocol focuses exclusively on automated yield generation. It eliminates the time and opportunity costs associated with manual research and portfolio rebalancing. By maintaining a specialized focus on yield instruments, Aegis ensures that capital is always deployed in the most efficient manner relative to the user's risk profile.

The "Double Agent" Architecture

The operational logic of Aegis is built upon a Double Agent System, ensuring a strict separation between user interaction and asset management:

  • Chatbot Agents (Interaction Layer): These agents serve as the interface for the user, handling inquiries, navigation, and intent parsing. They operate strictly within the information layer and do not possess direct control over funds.

  • AutoFi Agents (Execution Layer): These are autonomous backend executors responsible for the lifecycle of the investment. They continually monitor market conditions, assess risk, and execute transactions on the blockchain.

Operational Logic and Scope

When a user deposits capital into Aegis, the assets are secured in a dedicated Smart Address owned by the system but strictly mapped to the user. The AutoFi Agents then take over the management of these assets.

Scope of Operations

Supported:

  • Automated capital allocation into integrated DeFi protocols (e.g., Morpho, Aave).

  • Real-time risk monitoring and defensive rebalancing.

  • Strategy customization via risk profiles (e.g., Conservative).

  • Deposits, withdrawals, and asset swaps for entry.

Unsupported:

  • Arbitrary transaction execution outside of defined strategies.

  • General-purpose financial advice beyond protocol data.

  • Manual selection of specific liquidity pools (users manage strategies, not individual pools).

By delegating execution to the AutoFi Agents, Aegis ensures that investment decisions are data-driven, timely, and aligned with the rigorous security standards demanded by decentralized finance.
