What is Ava Guardian?

Ava Guardian watches your DeFi positions, warns you before something goes wrong, and helps you act — in plain English, right in Telegram. Non-custodial. You stay in control.

What is Ava Guardian?#

Ava Guardian is a non-custodial AI agent for your DeFi wallet. It watches your positions, warns you when something is about to go wrong, and — when you confirm — helps you act. You talk to it in plain English, in Telegram.

Funds never leave your wallet. You hold your keys. Ava acts only within on-chain spending caps that you set — limits it cannot exceed. You approve every action before it runs.

What it does, in one screen#

  • Watches the parts of your wallet that matter — health factors on lending markets, idle balances, risky token approvals.
  • Warns you in plain English when a risk is rising — "Your Aave position dropped to a health factor of 1.3 — liquidation risk."
  • Helps you act — it proposes a concrete fix at the moment risk is real (e.g. "top up 300 USDC → health factor 1.9"), shows you what's actually in your wallet, and lets you confirm or adjust.
  • Never hides downside. Simulation results, gas estimates, and what gets sent on-chain are visible before you tap confirm.

Who Ava is for#

  • DeFi users with open positions — borrowers on Aave who don't want to wake up liquidated, USDC holders sitting at 0%, anyone with old token approvals they've never revoked.
  • People who want to be in control without being chained to a dashboard. You should be able to live your life and trust that something is watching.
  • Anyone scam-wary of "AI trading bots." Ava is not a trading bot. It's a guardian: it protects, it doesn't speculate, and it never moves funds you didn't authorize.

What Ava is not#

  • Not custodial — it never holds your funds.
  • Not an investment manager — it doesn't pick trades, time the market, or use leverage.
  • Not financial advice — it explains, it proposes, you decide.
  • Not a dashboard — the surface is a Telegram chat. No screens to log into.

How to start#

The fastest path:

  1. Open the Guardian in Telegram (the Request in Telegram button anywhere on this site).
  2. Paste a wallet address — read-only, no signing required.
  3. Ava maps your portfolio and tells you what matters: open risks, idle assets, stale approvals.
  4. If you want Ava to protect a position, you sign once later — a permission with on-chain spend caps you set. You can pause or revoke it anytime.
