Instead of manually executing tedious, complex multi-step transactions across different protocols and chains, Haiku allows you to simply express your desired outcome in plain language while handing all the heavy lifting on the backend, completing your objective in one seamless, atomic transaction with speed, reliability and optimization. Whether you’re swapping tokens, allocating liquidity, bridging assets, or composing advanced strategies, Haiku removes the friction from your force. You define the destination, we optimize the path. Simply put, Haiku is a shift in how power-users and everyday traders engage with DeFi. It's more than just a trading tool, it’s precision, simplified. How Haiku WorksAt the core of Haiku is a new interaction model: outcome over action. Here’s what happens behind the scenes when you express an intent. This is where DeFAI begins, with simplicity on the surface and precision underneath.
