# Who Is It For?

YieldFi is designed for four core personas—each with a clear workflow and a dedicated entry point.

### **Capital Allocators**

**Family offices**, **DAOs**, **treasuries**, **asset managers**, **protocols**, and **HNWI/UHNWI** use YieldFi to allocate capital without building a large in-house team or subscribing to fragmented third-party analytics tools. As a capital allocator, you get **stable yield** access with institutional-grade visibility: real-time **NAV, performance history, liquidity profile, risk metrics (VaR/CVaR), and proof of reserves**—so you can underwrite and monitor positions in real time, not quarterly.

### **Curators (a.k.a Asset Managers)**

Curators use YieldFi Vaults to **collect and manage capital onchain** without standing up a traditional fund structure or carrying the same compliance and reporting overhead required for fund operations and NAV reporting. As a curator, you get a **friendly interface**, **institutional rails** for defi and cefi access and the ability to **set tiered fees for your services.** A composable ERC20 token and transparent performance layer helps you **scale AUM**—by letting allocators use the vault token as collateral across DeFi and evaluate returns, drawdowns, exposures, and liquidity in real time.

### **Distribution Partners**

Wallets, Exchanges, Custodians, Fintechs, Banks, Wealth Tech Platforms and LP Networks integrate YieldFi to **embed compliant yield products into their UX** and earn distribution fees—without reinventing vault infrastructure, reporting, or risk tooling. As a distributor, you get an **easy to integrate SDK** and transparent **commission structure**. YieldFi products are designed to be **self-custodial** and **permissionless in access**, while remaining compliant at the product and distribution layer.

### **Portfolio Managers**

Funds, risk teams, analysts, and CFO/treasury teams use YieldFi to analyze any set of wallets or yield bearing tokens for **yield opportunities, exposure concentration, liquidity constraints, and risk**. You care about **benchmarking**, missed-yield identification, and decision-grade risk intelligence—**drawdowns, VaR/CVaR, and liquidity ladders**—to manage portfolios with institutional discipline.
