What can I ask?

You can ask anything. Here are some example prompts to get started:

  • "Show me all tokens that funds bought in the last 24 hours"

  • "What DCA strategies are profitable traders using on Jupiter?"

  • "Find new tokens with high smart money inflows and growing trading volume"

  • "Show me trending tokens with liquidity above $100k"

  • "Analyze the trading performance of this whale address"

  • "Find wallets connected to this successful trader"

  • "Track how this fund's portfolio allocation has changed over time"

  • "Do a deep dive into this wallet to find whom does it belong to"

Will this work with my current AI tools?

Yes! Built on Model Context Protocol, it works seamlessly with Claude and Cursor currently (we will be adding more).
