Helio is best known for powering frictionless crypto checkouts, but behind the scenes, we’ve also been building a powerful suite of onchain trading tools across Solana and EVM.
While building Moonit, our token launch platform in collaboration with DEX Screener, we developed a suite of APIs that any business can now tap into.
From token swaps and launchpads to high-performance routing and custom widgets, our trading infrastructure is designed for speed, scalability, and full flexibility. And this is just the beginning of what’s on our roadmap.
Here’s a look at the trading APIs you can leverage today:
Boost API

A robust transaction router for Solana optimised for speed & reliability. Think of Boost as a specialised service for trading bots, launchpads, or any other Solana dApp, that enhances transaction speed and improves conversion rates on Solana by prioritising your transactions. Boost is already being used by Axiom, Moonit, Vyper, Moongate and other leading apps on Solana.
By including a small tip instruction, your transactions are submitted through optimised channels for faster confirmation such as staked connections and we also integrate directly with Jito to improve reliability during high-traffic or volatile conditions, increasing the likelihood of successful confirmations, as well as providing protection against sandwich attacks.
Speed: Land transactions faster with sub-1 second execution
Protection: Guard against sandwich attacks with Jito integration
Revenue: Receive tips minus Jito and compute costs, with the rest refunded
Reliability: Always land transactions, even during network congestion
Developer-friendly: Use a simple RPC URL with the standard sendTransaction method on Solana
"Helio boosts are measurably better vs regular Jito landing and come at a fraction of the price of competitors"

Swaps API

Seamlessly integrate token swaps across Solana and EVM chains to improve user experience and maximise your revenue:
