Gelato Ops

hey gelato gang 👋 we finally released Gelato Ops, Web3's smart contract automation hub 🚀 around 3 years ago, when building new DeFi applications on Ethereum, we realized that there was no easy way for developers like us to automate the execution of arbitrary smart contract functions without having to build, run & maintain their own centralized infrastructure every single time. we thought: "why can't we have a similar developer experience that we were used to in web2 where tools such as lambda / cloud functions or cron jobs existed?" that's why we started building Gelato, a plug'n'play decentralized network of bots that enables you to automate any smart contract function while enjoying high reliability, cheap transactions fees & having no single point of failure. today, Gelato is being used by a variety of amazing teams in web3, including MakerDAO, Abracadabra, Quickswap, Connext and many more! feel free to hit us up on Discord, Telegram or Twitter if you need help or have questions about how to get started🍦

Here's a tutorial on how to automate your smart contracts using Gelato Ops - hope it helps 📺

I stumbled upon Gelato when looking for a solution to being able to liquidate underwater positions in DeFi protocols, and to do so automatically by using a tool that constantly checks for the condition I select, and then executes when that condition is found. As someone who trades crypto full-time, this scenario mentioned above is a massive opportunity that exists, but is typically won by bots. So Gelato's easy to use interface is what won me over, because I realized learning to become a developer and trader simultaneously is quite difficult, so as I continue learning to code, I can already automate many of the ideas I have by using this tool. Gelato has been nothing but great experience for me thus far amongst the other automation tooling that exists for Web3 - and I love that the focus is on being the main hub for Web3 automation going forward. I don't think people appreciate how large the market will be for automation - it will be huge and I think Gelato is a solid contender to win it all. I started automating things like claiming staked token awards, building out time spaced executions of certain purchases, and then that was when the creativity floodgates really hit me with what Gelato can do...basically *anything* you can creatively think of! If you generally believe in the notion that software is eating the world (and it has been for 20 years, well crypto and blockchain is the final iteration of this - and with automation the critical core of it all. Love the product and tool and team! And the name... :) Weston

Very exciting stuff! Congrats on all the progress. Can you share some more details on the project roadmap and future plans?

Love the fact that in a totally self-service way I can set up top tier automation for my smart contract applications - be it harvesting, compounding, rebalancing, etc. Great to see it being deployed to so many sidechains and L2s.

You had me at Gelato!

This is totally great! *_* Big congratulations on the launch! ^_^ Such an amazing project also whispers a message that the future of Web 3.0 is near by, what makes me happy! ^_^
