Vektor

Vektor.finance is a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform designed to provide a multi-chain execution tool for both individuals and institutions. Founded in 2020 by Andy Bryant and Akram H in London, United Kingdom, the company developed a non-custodial interface that allows users to manage fragmented assets, compose, and execute transactions across multiple blockchains from a single interface. This eliminates the need for numerous browser tabs and extensions, streamlining the user experience.

The core of Vektor's technology is its backend system and the Vektor Execution Language (VXL), a domain-specific language designed to be intuitive for spreadsheet users. This system processes user commands to query cross-chain data, build and execute bespoke on-chain transactions, and create complex alerts. The platform is non-custodial, meaning it never takes control of users' private keys or assets; transactions are signed by the user and broadcast directly to the blockchain. It offers direct integrations with hardware wallets for enhanced security. Vektor's target clients include hedge funds, corporate treasuries, and other institutions with sophisticated DeFi needs that want to avoid building their own bespoke systems.

In September 2024, Vektor was acquired by Nirvana Labs.
