Company profile
researched Aug 2026Auto Finance is a decentralized liquidity management protocol offering automated yield optimization for DeFi liquidity providers. It is the current brand of the protocol previously known as Tokemak; the team, smart contracts and documentation continue under the Auto Finance name, with the application hosted at app.auto.finance and documentation at docs.auto.finance, and the TOKE token migrated to AUTO.
The core product is the Autopool, a smart-contract vault built on the ERC-4626 token standard. Depositors supply assets such as ETH, USDC or other stablecoins, and the Autopool holds a diversified set of liquidity positions across decentralized exchanges, lending markets and liquidity pools. Allocation and rebalancing are handled autonomously on-chain, so depositors do not manually claim rewards, bridge assets or re-enter positions. Named destination protocols include Curve, Balancer, Aave and Morpho. Yield derives from trading fees, lending interest and protocol incentives earned by the underlying positions and is reported as APY.
The protocol is described as non-custodial: assets are held by open-source smart contracts rather than the team, and depositors can withdraw at any time subject to on-chain liquidity. Contracts have been audited, and each pool page lists the destination protocols capital is deployed into along with published audit reports.
Business model
Auto Finance operates as an on-chain protocol rather than a custodial service: users deposit assets directly into ERC-4626 Autopool vaults that deploy capital into third-party DeFi venues. The company's site states the Autopools currently charge no management fee, no performance fee, no deposit fee and no withdrawal fee, and that displayed yield figures are net of any fees.
No fees are currently charged on Autopools — no management, performance, deposit or withdrawal fees — per the protocol's own disclosure.
Latest developments
The protocol formerly known as Tokemak now operates as Auto Finance, with contracts, team and documentation carried over and the TOKE token migrated to AUTO.

Market position
Auto Finance positions itself as an automated liquidity management and yield optimization layer sitting on top of established DeFi venues such as Curve, Balancer, Aave and Morpho, into which its vaults route depositor capital.
The protocol emphasizes fully autonomous, on-chain rebalancing gated by a cost-benefit test (projected yield gain versus gas and slippage), transparency through per-pool disclosure of destination protocols and audit reports, non-custodial asset holding with withdrawals available subject to on-chain liquidity, and a current fee structure with no management, performance, deposit or withdrawal fees.
Technology
Autopools are smart-contract vaults implementing the ERC-4626 tokenized vault standard. Each vault holds a diversified basket of liquidity positions across DEXs, lending protocols and liquidity pools. Rebalancing logic continuously compares the yield available at each permitted destination against the cost of moving capital, and executes a rebalance only when the projected gain from the new allocation exceeds the gas and slippage required, avoiding churn for marginal differences. The full cycle runs on-chain and automatically. Contracts are open source and audited, with security documentation published at docs.auto.finance.
Go-to-market
DeFi liquidity providers and holders of ETH, USDC and other stablecoins or major crypto assets who want optimized, risk-adjusted yield without manually managing positions across protocols.
