# Market Makers & Solvers

> Professional liquidity, three ways in - quote into the venue, source depth for auctions, or win the liquidation race.

Professional liquidity connects to TetraFi from more than one direction. **Market makers** put inventory to work by pricing the venue's flow. **Solvers** pull firm institutional depth out of it to win auctions elsewhere. **Liquidators** pull that same depth against the clock, when a position has to clear in the next few blocks. One connection, three books - and plenty of desks run more than one.

<Note>
  Coming soon for all three: [**propAMM**](/propamm/introduction) - streamed, oracle-anchored maker pricing settled with on-chain guarantees, with refresh costs mutualised across the maker set and predictable execution at size.

## Market Makers

The economics of a quoting desk are simple: find flow worth pricing, keep the risk book tight. TetraFi concentrates demand from wallets to institutions behind one connection - the flow comes to you, and nothing about how you price it is ever dictated.

### Why Quote on TetraFi

* **A serious RFQ venue on EVM** to put your inventory to work
* **Flow worth pricing** - stablecoin and tokenized real-world asset demand at institutional size, not retail tail
* **Demand aggregation done for you** - retail apps, routers, auction bots, and desks arrive as one flow
* **Chain sprawl without integration sprawl** - a single connection quotes everywhere you enable
* **Sovereign pricing** - spread, size, and exposure decisions never leave your desk
* **Quote only where you're licensed** - jurisdiction rules are enforced in the pipe, so ineligible flow never reaches your desk
* **Taker-choice execution** - your quotes serve both API-settled and self-broadcast flows
* **Feedback you can trade on:** fill rates and flow metrics that sharpen the strategy
* **A duration book, ahead:** with [TetraFi T+0 Vaults](/vaults) (coming soon), service redemptions and liquidations against curated vault capital - pricing the wait as a distinct revenue line

### What We Look For

The bar for joining the roster:

* **Presence:** spreads that stay competitive across your pairs, session after session
* **Reliability:** infrastructure that answers fast and stays up

## Solvers

Auction wins come down to execution paths nobody else has. Plugging into TetraFi's RFQ layer puts institutional inventory behind your bids - depth that public DEX routes simply can't match once size enters the picture.

### What You Get

* **Depth that scales with the order** - big tickets fan out across several desks and come back as one price
* **Auction-grade spreads** - accept tighter validity windows and collect the pricing improvement
* **\~100ms to a usable number** when the auction clock is running
* **Partial fills as a routing tool** - top up AMM legs with firm inventory instead of re-quoting
* **Fee math already done** - quotes arrive net, nothing to reconcile
* **A live pre-auction picture** from streamed indicative prices, for free
* **Batch quoting** when you're working many intents in the same breath

***

## Liquidators

Every liquidation has one winner, and the margin between winning and watching is measured in blocks. What decides it: how fast a trustworthy price arrives, and whether it survives contact with volatile markets. TetraFi answers with liquidation-sized firm quotes at racing speed.

### What You Get

* **Position-sized liquidity** - when one desk can't absorb it, several do, transparently
* **A price that survives volatility** - firm through exactly the windows where pools whipsaw
* **\~100ms quoting** so the race is winnable
* **Collateral at position size** - stablecoin and tokenized-asset collateral quoted firm where the liquidation actually clears, and anything else an LP will price is reachable too
