# Steer Protocol

> Turnkey asset management infrastructure

Steer Protocol is a decentralized asset management infrastructure provider. It helps asset managers, protocols, and builders deploy vaults, automate liquidity, and manage incentives across multiple blockchains.

Steer Protocol is a decentralized asset management infrastructure provider that offers modular tools for building and running on-chain financial strategies. It serves asset managers, protocols, and independent builders who need to tokenize funds, indexes, and structured products without relying on centralized infrastructure. Its offering centers on automated vaults, liquidity management, and incentive tooling designed to reduce the operational overhead of running on-chain strategies.

The protocol addresses the complexity of managing concentrated liquidity and incentive programs by automating position adjustments and reward distribution through smart contracts. Users can connect off-chain data sources to on-chain logic, enabling automated actions such as rebalancing, governance execution, and liquidation monitoring. The infrastructure also supports smart wallets and risk controls, allowing tokenized products to operate across multiple blockchains.

Its core offerings include automated liquidity vaults, a rewards and incentive campaign system, and smart wallet infrastructure, complemented by data connectors and compute tooling for building custom on-chain applications. These products are grouped into an integrated suite that protocols, decentralized autonomous organizations, and institutional platforms use to launch and scale on-chain financial products. The infrastructure is used by ecosystem protocols, wallets, and asset managers seeking automated capital efficiency across their token and liquidity operations.

## Products

- [Smart Pools](https://thegrid.id/profiles/steer_protocol): Smart Pools is an automated concentrated liquidity manager that rebalances multi-position liquidity ranges across decentralized exchanges. It uses off-chain computation to monitor pool conditions and adjust positions, aiming to improve capital efficiency and reduce slippage for liquidity providers. Protocols and asset managers use it to deploy vault-based strategies across multiple blockchains and decentralized exchanges without manual position management. (Yield Aggregator, Live, Main Product)
- [Smart Rewards](https://thegrid.id/profiles/steer_protocol): Smart Rewards is a permissionless incentive campaign platform that lets protocols design and distribute token rewards based on on-chain and off-chain user activity. It streams calculated rewards to participants on an hourly basis and provides a unified dashboard for tracking pending and claimable incentives. Protocols use it to launch growth campaigns without custody of user funds, since rewards are held in escrow until distribution. (Token distribution tool, Live)
- [Steer Staking](https://thegrid.id/profiles/steer_protocol): Steer Staking is a non-custodial staking service supporting protocol tokens and liquidity provider tokens through time-weighted reward pools. It automates distribution of staking rewards to depositors without requiring users to give up control of their assets. Protocols use it to offer staking programs alongside their liquidity and incentive infrastructure. (Staking & Validation Services, Live)
- [Smart Bonds](https://thegrid.id/profiles/steer_protocol): Smart Bonds is a bond program tool that converts bond sales into protocol-owned liquidity as an alternative to traditional liquidity mining. It manages incentive schedules and redemption mechanics to maintain stable, in-range liquidity pools with minimal manual intervention. Protocols use it to build sustainable, long-term liquidity positions paired with their native tokens. (Yield Aggregator, Live)
- [Steer Liquidity Kit](https://thegrid.id/profiles/steer_protocol): Steer Liquidity Kit is a developer toolkit providing components for building automated liquidity management strategies on concentrated liquidity protocols. It includes backtesting tools, configurable liquidity curve functions, rebalancing logic, and price adapters for external data sources. Developers use it to construct and test custom market-making strategies before deploying them through vault infrastructure. (Developer Tooling, Live)
- [Steer Data Marketplace](https://thegrid.id/profiles/steer_protocol): Steer Data Marketplace aggregates on-chain and off-chain data feeds into a unified interface for developers building automated strategies. It allows data and compute providers to list their sources so that applications can integrate multiple feeds without separate custom integrations. Developers use it to power strategy logic and automation with external market and protocol data. (Off-Chain Data APIs and Services, Live)
- [Steer Web3 Functions](https://thegrid.id/profiles/steer_protocol): Steer Web3 Functions is a developer tool connecting on-chain transactions with off-chain compute tasks through decentralized job scheduling. It automates execution of strategy logic and data processing tasks triggered by on-chain or off-chain conditions. Developers use it to build automated workflows such as rebalancing, reward distribution, or cross-chain actions without maintaining their own execution infrastructure. (Developer Tooling, Live)

## Assets

- [Steer Protocol (STEER)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/steer_protocol): STEER is the governance token of Steer Protocol. Holders stake STEER to participate in governance votes on protocol upgrades and parameters, and staking programs allow locking the token for proportionally higher rewards. The token is implemented as an upgradeable ERC-20 contract with vote-tracking extensions, though it has not yet been confirmed as live for public trading. (Governance)
