Kiln Connect
One SDK for staking, rewards and more on all protocols
Trusted by the best
What is Kiln Connect?
Integrating new staking protocols is time-consuming and costly, requiring custom transactions, data infrastructure, and custodian API integrations. Kiln Connect abstracts this complexity away.
Kiln Connect includes the Transaction Crafting API for programmatically handling staking accounts and creating staking/unstaking transactions, and the Reporting API for real-time data monitoring, including rewards and validator performance, for you or your users.
Kiln Connect is validator-agnostic, so you can enjoy its benefits regardless of your chosen validators
Reporting API
Collect rewards & performance in data real time across chains and staking operators in a unified way.
- Save your engineering team bandwidth
- Provide robust reporting to users
- Automate accounting and compliance
Transaction crafting API
Integrate each protocol's staking/unstaking transaction formats into one string of code
Compatible with all major Pos BLOCKCHAINS

FAQ
What is Kiln Connect?
Kiln Connect includes the Transaction Crafting API for programmatically handling staking accounts and creating staking/unstaking transactions, and the Reporting API for real-time data monitoring, including rewards and validator performance, for you or your users.
The Reporting API, which provides real-time, all-time, all-network indexing of staking data across all major PoS chains. This API enables exchanges, custodians and market makers to collect and surface staking data for their customers and internal processes. The API is validator-agnostic, enabling you to standardise reporting and operations across staking operators and protocols without having to spend engineering resources on collecting and maintaining these data pipelines.
The Transaction Crafting API, which enables you to craft staking and unstaking transactions from all major PoS protocols using a single, unified API which supports all validator providers. This enables you to speed up the delivery of your staking product across several chains.
Both these APIs are RESTful, enabling you to call them from the language of your choice. We also provide JS and Python SDKs for convenience.

What are the risks associated with Kiln Connect?
Kiln Connect is a utility which helps you streamline your integration with staking validators. All crafted transactions can be validated on your side prior to broadcasting, and they are signed in your existing custody solution (Kiln is non-custodial).
If you choose to stake with Kiln Validators, there are slashing risks associated which you should be aware of.
