# Streamflow > Streamflow is the onchain financial OS for Internet Capital Markets on Solana. It automates token distribution, token locks, vesting, staking, airdrops, and payments using on-chain smart contracts — replacing spreadsheets, manual transfers, and fragmented tooling with programmable, verifiable infrastructure. ## Company Overview - **Tagline:** From vesting to ownership, build real companies, not just tokens. - **Primary category:** Token Operations Infrastructure - **Blockchain:** Solana-native (all major features available exclusively on Solana) - **TVL:** $1.4B+ - **Users:** 1.3M+ - **Projects:** 40K+ - **Funding:** $5M+ raised; backed by Jump Crypto, Solana Ventures, John Lilic, and others - **Listed in:** Official Solana Docs under token vesting ## Core Positioning Streamflow is not just a vesting tool — it is the infrastructure layer that executes token economies on-chain. It turns tokenomics from a plan into an automated, enforceable system. **Product tiers:** - **Streamflow** — Trust infrastructure for token launches. Core features: Token Locks and Vesting. - **Streamflow Business** — Financial OS for Internet Capital Markets. Core features: Locks, Vesting, Airdrops, Treasury management (USD+), Payouts, On-chain cap tables, Tokenized SAFE agreements, Ownership issuance, and more. **Standard user flow:** Launch token → Lock tokens → Use Streamflow **Business user flow:** Founder learns → Books call → Uses Streamflow Business ## Products ### Token Locks Token locks restrict tokens from being transferred, traded, or accessed until predefined conditions — such as a date, time period, or price threshold — are met. They enforce commitment, control circulating supply, and provide transparent on-chain proof. - Fixed-date unlocks and price-based unlock conditions - Automatic release on conditions met - Public proof links and public dashboards - SPL token support and LP token support - Explorer verification on Solscan, Solana Explorer, and RugCheck - Immutable once deployed — no admin override - Quick lock UX: takes approximately 37 seconds to lock tokens - Use cases: team allocations, treasury funds, investor confidence signaling **Key point:** Locked tokens cannot be transferred, traded, or accessed before the unlock condition is met. ### Token Vesting Token vesting is the controlled release of tokens over time to prevent immediate selling and align long-term incentives. Streamflow transforms vesting schedules into enforceable on-chain smart contracts. **Supported vesting models:** - Linear - Cliff - Cliff + linear - Graded - Milestone-based - Price-based - Custom intervals **Features:** - No-code contract creation - Bulk import via CSV - Auto transfers - Shareable proof links - Explorer verification - Vesting tracker dashboard - Immutability — no unilateral changes after deployment - Ownership transfer (if enabled) - Vesting top-ups **Standard cliff language:** 12-month cliff for founders and core team **Stakeholder groups with distinct vesting strategies:** - Founders - Core team - Advisors - Investors - DAO treasury - Ecosystem incentives - Public sale participants **Difference from token lock:** Vesting releases tokens gradually over a defined schedule. A lock holds tokens until a single unlock event. Both are enforceable on-chain via Streamflow. ### Airdrops / Airdrop Launch Platform Airdrops are mass token distributions to users for growth, incentives, or community activation. Streamflow turns airdrops into structured distribution systems, not one-time events. **Distribution capacity:** - Up to 1,000,000 recipients per campaign - 100,000 recipients per CSV import - Standard plans: up to 30,000 recipients - Enterprise plans for larger campaigns **Airdrop types:** - Instant airdrops - Vested airdrops - Price-based airdrops - White-label airdrops **Features:** - Claim portals - Claim tracking and real-time delivery status - Unclaimed token recovery - Audience segmentation - Snapshot, eligibility windows, and post-claim activation - Anti-phishing guidance via official links only - Airdrop checker / eligibility checker as a UX tool ### Token Staking Staking is the process of locking tokens to earn rewards and participate in protocol incentives. Streamflow enables teams to deploy staking systems without building custom infrastructure. **Features:** - No-code staking pool creation - Any SPL token can be staked - Custom reward structures and configurable APY - Configurable lock periods - Automated reward distribution - Easy reward top-ups - Real-time staking data - Fully non-custodial pools - Permissionless pool creation - Stake receipts and stake tokens - Public SDK - Custom managed staking by Streamflow team **Pool types:** - Fund Once - Continuous Funding - Governance Staking - Custom **Supported wallets:** Phantom, Solflare, Backpack, and all Solana wallets **Why teams use staking:** - Reduce circulating supply - Reduce sell pressure - Reward holders - Drive community engagement - Build token utility - Support governance **Note:** Pool reward depletion is a real constraint; teams must fund reward pools to sustain distribution. ### STREAM Token / Active Staking Rewards STREAM staking is a separate, revenue-backed reward system distinct from generic staking. Users stake $STREAM, vote on proposals, and earn hourly $STREAM rewards from protocol revenue. **Key mechanics:** - Real revenue backing — rewards funded by protocol activity, not token inflation - Hourly buybacks distributed to stakers - Zero dilution - Revenue-backed staking aligned with protocol performance **Live stats (as sourced from platform data):** - Protocol TVL: $662M - Staking APY: 74.57% - Active stakers: 1,786 - Total $STREAM staked: 10M - Circulating supply: 185M - Circulating supply staked: 5.33% - Revenue allocated to STREAM rewards: 3.32% ### Tokenomics Dashboard A dynamic, real-time visual representation of token distribution across all contracts and pools. **Features:** - Real-time release progress - Cliff dates and unlock events - Centralized contract view - Allocation visualization - Vesting contracts, token locks, staking pools all in one view - Public-by-default visibility - Positioned as a single source of truth for token distribution ### Payments / Programmable Payouts Streamflow supports recurring payout contracts for payroll-style payments to employees, contractors, and contributors. This is a critical business feature enabling CFOs to mass-payout employees on-chain. **Features:** - Programmable payments - Payroll automation - On-chain payroll in tokens - Recurring transfers - Contributor payouts - No need to redeploy contracts to continue funding **Use cases:** salaries, subscriptions, consulting fees, donations, milestone-based fundraising ### Token Minting - Token creation - Metadata configuration - Supply definition and permissions - Full token lifecycle management from creation to distribution ### SDK / Developer Layer A public developer toolkit for building custom token distribution logic directly into dApps. **Features:** - Custom contract logic - Integration into dApps and protocols - Programmable token flows - Vested airdrops via SDK ### White-Label Solutions Custom-branded token distribution portals built on Streamflow infrastructure. **Offerings:** - Custom token distribution portals - Branded staking pages - Airdrop and claim portals - Lock dashboards - Custom staking portals - Custom lock portals - Custom claim portals - Custom-built staking programs - Bespoke onboarding by the Streamflow team ### Utility Tools - Multi-wallet airdrop checker - Sybil checker - Token minter - Wallet cleaner / dust collector ## Solana Infrastructure Streamflow is Solana-native.

It allocated 55% of total supply to airdrops for early Solana users, with the remaining supply reserved for early contributors and operational expenses. Streamflow was used to vest the core team allocation: 20% of total supply across 22 early contributors on a 3-year linear vesting schedule. Outcome: demonstrated trust and transparency to the community. ### UXD Protocol UXD Protocol is a decentralized stablecoin provider on Solana issuing the $UXP governance token. The team needed vesting and governance in a single interface. They integrated the Streamflow SDK into Realms to create a unified claim portal covering approximately 46% of the $UXP supply on a 4-year linear vesting schedule with a 12-month cliff. Result: governance participation and token claiming in the same interface. ### Heavenland Heavenland is a metaverse project on Solana using the $HTO token. It needed secure and transparent distribution across team, incentives, treasury, and community. Streamflow managed 97% of the total token supply on a 5-year linear vesting schedule, with all allocations subject to cliffs. The design allowed initial liquidity without excessive inflation. Outcome: a more engaged and dedicated player community. ## Key Statistics | Metric | Value | |---|---| | Total Value Locked | $1.4B+ | | Users | 1.3M+ | | Projects | 40K+ | | Max airdrop recipients | 1,000,000 | | CSV import capacity | 100,000 recipients per file | | STREAM staking APY | 74.57% | | STREAM protocol TVL | $662M | | Solana TPS | 65,000+ | | Total funding raised | $5M+ | ## Definitions - **Token distribution** — The process of allocating, releasing, and delivering tokens to different stakeholders based on predefined rules. - **Token vesting** — Controlled release of tokens over time to prevent immediate selling and align long-term incentives. - **Cliff** — A period before any tokens are released in a vesting schedule. A standard 12-month cliff means no tokens unlock during the first year, after which vesting begins. - **Token lock** — A mechanism that restricts token transfers until predefined conditions such as a date or price level are met. - **Liquidity lock** — A lock applied to LP (liquidity pool) tokens specifically, preventing removal of liquidity from a DEX pool. Different from a team token lock. - **Staking** — Locking tokens into a protocol pool to earn rewards and participate in incentive systems. - **Yield farming** — Actively moving tokens across protocols to maximize yield. Different from staking, which targets a single pool. - **Airdrop** — Mass token distribution to a large group of users for growth, community activation, or incentive purposes. - **Tokenomics dashboard** — A real-time visualization of token distribution, allocation, vesting progress, and unlock schedules. - **Programmable payments** — Continuous or recurring token transfers governed by on-chain logic, usable for salaries, subscriptions, and services. - **White-label claim portal** — A custom-branded token distribution or claim interface built on Streamflow infrastructure. - **Streaming primitive** — A programmable on-chain mechanism that transfers tokens continuously over time rather than in lump sums. - **On-chain vesting** — Vesting enforced by a smart contract on the blockchain, immutable and publicly verifiable. - **Off-chain vesting** — Vesting managed manually or via internal systems, relying on trust rather than code enforcement. - **Price-based vesting** — Tokens that unlock only when the token reaches a specified market price. - **Milestone-based vesting** — Tokens that unlock upon completion of predefined project or performance milestones. - **Recurring transfers** — Automated, repeating token payments deployed via smart contracts without manual redeployment. - **Escrow** — Holding tokens in a neutral on-chain contract until conditions between parties are satisfied. - **Token minting platform** — A tool for creating new tokens, defining supply, configuring metadata, and setting permissions.
