Would You Trust an Open-Source Savings Tool That Earns Yield Without App Fees?
Key topics
I’m helping build an open-source platform that aggregates high-yield savings opportunities (from 10% APY) from protocols like Beefy Finance and similar smart contracts.
The idea: instead of each DeFi platform taking a percentage, Analog acts as a pure SaaS layer — users interact directly with the underlying contracts, and we only charge a flat subscription fee for the interface and analytics for contracts that are providing much higher yield (10% to 40% APY), but are more risky and in need of constant rebalance.
I’m the co-founder from the product side, not a developer, so I’m trying to better understand what concerns or red flags the technical community might have about this kind of setup.
