Services & Ownership¶
The ARKONIX stack is composed of five inter-connected services. This page is the canonical map of what each one does, who operates it, and where its documentation lives.
| Service | What it is | Operated by | Docs |
|---|---|---|---|
arkonix-platform |
Frontend monorepo: Earn app, partner portal, marketing site | Arkonix Finance | Platform |
arkonix-backend |
Execution platform: public API, app API, indexing, epoch settlement, strategy execution | Arkonix Finance | Backend |
SignalForge |
Signal & index generation feeding quantitative strategies | Arkonix Capital Management (ACM) | SignalForge |
arkonix-vault-sdk |
Consumer-facing React/React Native SDK for partners | Arkonix Finance (npm, BUSL-1.1) | Vault SDK |
arkonix-defi-sdk |
Internal DeFi protocol SDK used by the execution engine | Arkonix Finance (internal) | DeFi SDK |
Ownership boundaries that matter¶
SignalForge is an ACM product
SignalForge is owned and operated by Arkonix Capital Management, not by the platform entity. The platform consumes SignalForge outputs (signals/indices) as strategy inputs; strategy execution remains a platform concern. This separation matters for due diligence: the entity producing investment signals is distinct from the entity operating settlement and custody-adjacent infrastructure.
Two SDKs, two audiences
The Vault SDK is the only SDK intended for external use — it is published to npm and documented fully on this site. The DeFi SDK is an internal building block of the execution engine; it is documented here at the architectural level only.
How they connect¶
- The platform (frontend) talks to the backend over REST with JWT bearer tokens, and to vault contracts directly through wallets and the Vault SDK.
- The backend indexes on-chain activity, serves the public API the Vault SDK's financial-data layer consumes, and executes strategies using the DeFi SDK against supported protocols.
- SignalForge publishes signals and index compositions that subscribed strategies consume at rebalance time.
