Our verdict on HawkFi
6.3/10HawkFi is a niche tool for active Solana liquidity providers who want automation and analytics on Meteora DLMM and Orca CLMM. Its main strength is a focused terminal with AI-assisted strategy planning and backtesting prompts. The main caveats are modest TVL that fell 18.3% in a week, unpublished fees in the reviewed material, and the inherent risks of concentrated liquidity on volatile memecoins. Beginners should read the docs and start small.

What is HawkFi?
HawkFi is a liquidity-management platform on Solana. DefiLlama classes it as a Liquidity Manager and describes it as an analytics and automation platform for on-chain market makers seeking yield on Solana memecoins and ecosystem tokens.
It currently automates market making on Meteora DLMM (Dynamic Liquidity Market Making) and Orca CLMM (Concentrated Liquidity Market Making). The homepage presents an LP Terminal with pools, a dashboard, referrals and docs, plus an AI assistant called HawkAI.
DefiLlama has tracked it since February 2023 and shows about $711,810 in TVL, down 18.3% over seven days. It lists a token, HAWK, and two audits.
How HawkFi works
A liquidity provider deposits tokens into a pool so traders can swap against them, and earns a share of trading fees. On Meteora DLMM and Orca CLMM, liquidity is concentrated in a chosen price range, which can earn more fees per dollar but stops earning if the price leaves the range.
HawkFi sits on top of these venues as a management layer. Its description says it automates market making and provides analytics so LPs can adjust positions and pursue yield on Solana tokens. The homepage shows a terminal with pool listings, a dashboard and an AI assistant for explaining pools and planning backtests.
The exact execution logic, rebalancing rules and permissions HawkFi uses are not detailed in the reviewed facts. Readers should check the docs to see how positions are controlled and what the user retains custody of.

Pros and cons
What we like
- Clear niche: automation and analytics for concentrated liquidity on Solana
- Supports two established Solana concentrated-liquidity venues, Meteora DLMM and Orca CLMM
- Built-in AI assistant and backtesting prompts to help evaluate strategies
- Tracked on DefiLlama since early 2023, giving it a multi-year history
- Two audits listed on DefiLlama
Watch out for
- TVL is small at about $711,810 and fell 18.3% over the last 7 days, per DefiLlama
- Focused only on Solana and two venues (Meteora DLMM and Orca CLMM), so options are narrow
- Concentrated liquidity strategies carry impermanent loss and out-of-range risk, which automation does not remove
- Fee structure is not published in the material reviewed
- Audit details are not described beyond a count of two listed on DefiLlama
- Heavy focus on memecoins and ecosystem tokens, which are volatile and can lose liquidity fast
HawkFi fees
HawkFi's fees are not published in the material reviewed. Users would need to check the docs and the app before opening a position to see any platform charges.
Independent of HawkFi, LPs on Meteora and Orca earn and pay pool-level fees, and every on-chain action costs a small amount of SOL in network fees. The homepage shows a zap-out slippage setting of 15%, which is a trade tolerance and not a fee, but it is worth reviewing before exiting positions.
Is HawkFi safe?
DefiLlama lists two audits for HawkFi, but the auditors, scope and findings are not in the reviewed facts. Check the docs for the reports. Public sources also do not say how custody and permissions work, so users should confirm what the platform can do with their funds once a wallet is connected.
Liquidity provision carries market risk, including impermanent loss and out-of-range positions, which is higher with memecoins. Smart-contract risk also extends to the underlying Meteora and Orca pools. No incidents are mentioned publicly, and no regulatory status is stated. Use only funds you can afford to lose.
6 steps
How to get started with HawkFi
- 1
Confirm that using DeFi services is permitted where you live and understand the risks of liquidity provision.
- 2
Open the official HawkFi site and read the docs, especially anything on fees and strategy types.
- 3
Connect a Solana wallet and fund it with SOL for network fees plus the tokens you want to provide.
- 4
Browse the Pools section and use the HawkAI panel or backtest prompts to compare opportunities.
- 5
Start with a small position, set slippage and range settings deliberately, and monitor it using the Dashboard.
- 6
Review and close positions when conditions change, since concentrated ranges can go out of range.
Who HawkFi is for
HawkFi is aimed at active liquidity providers and market makers on Solana who already understand concentrated liquidity and want help managing ranges and comparing pools. It is less suitable for passive holders or newcomers who do not want to monitor positions or accept memecoin volatility.
