Solana trading bot development
A Solana trading bot is software that watches on-chain data, decides with rules you set, and sends swaps from your own wallet. The main types are copy-trading, sniper, arbitrage, MEV and Telegram bots. We build each to your spec, with full source code, from a fixed $500.

Every bot we build, and the feeds it rides on
Each column is a bot, each line a data feed. Point at a bot for what it does and what it costs, or choose one to read its page.
Each column is a bot and each line is a data feed. A square means the bot uses that feed. Point at a bot to see what it does, or choose one to read its page.
Which kind of bot do you need?
Start from what you want the bot to react to. The answer points at the page that builds it, with the price on it.

Copy-trading bot
It watches the wallets you choose and places a sized copy of each swap from your own wallet.
Fixed price from $500. What moves the price: venues, wallets tracked, sizing, exits, safety rules and alerts.
What every Solana trading bot is made of
Whatever it trades, a bot does the same five jobs. The kinds differ in where the engineering weight sits, and that is most of what you are paying for.
Data in
Reads the chain: transactions, accounts and pools.
Decide
Applies your rules and picks an action, or none.
Send
Builds, signs and lands the transaction.
Record
Writes down what it saw, decided and paid.
Control
Lets you set limits, pause it and see it.
| Bot | Data in | Decide | Send | Record | Control |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Copy-trading bot | Most of the work | Some of the work | Most of the work | Some of the work | Some of the work |
| Sniper bot | Most of the work | Most of the work | Most of the work | Some of the work | Some of the work |
| Arbitrage bot | Most of the work | Most of the work | Most of the work | Most of the work | Some of the work |

The five kinds we build
Each has its own page with its own price, because each is a different piece of engineering.

Also built as custom work
- DCA bots. Buy or sell a fixed amount on a schedule or at price steps. Simple to specify, and a good first build.
- Indicator bots. Trade when an indicator such as RSI crosses a level you choose. We build the data handling and the sending; the signal is yours.
These are scoped on a call instead of priced from a page. Describe the strategy and an engineer replies.

Seven questions to ask any bot developer
Including us. For each, what a good answer sounds like, and ours.
- 1
Who holds the keys?
A good answer
You do. The bot signs from a wallet on a server you control, and the developer never sees the key.
Ours
That is how every bot we build works. Keys stay on your server.
- 2
Do I own the source code?
A good answer
Yes: the code, the documentation and the deployment scripts, with no licence fee and no cut of your trades.
Ours
Full source code in your repository, with no subscription and no per-trade fees from us.
- 3
What is the price, and is it in writing?
A good answer
A fixed price in a written spec before work starts, and a clear list of what would change it.
Ours
Fixed prices from $500, agreed in writing before any work starts. What moves the price is listed on each page.
- 4
What happens when a transaction fails?
A good answer
It is simulated first, retried safely against the same intent, and the failure is recorded with its reason.
Ours
Every bot simulates before it sends, never double-sends one intent, and logs why anything failed.
- 5
How are decisions and fills logged?
A good answer
A record of every decision, including the ones where it did nothing, with the rule that decided.
Ours
A decision log in every build, and a full ledger in the MEV and Telegram builds.
- 6
How is it tested before it trades?
A good answer
Against live data in a dry run first, and against recorded data where that is possible.
Ours
Weekly demos against live mainnet data before the bot trades, and a replay harness where a strategy needs one.
- 7
What support follows the handover?
A good answer
A defined support window, clear documentation and a runbook.
Ours
Two weeks of support, documentation and a runbook with every build.
Why the infrastructure matters
A bot is only as good as what it reads and how it sends. We run the feeds and the nodes ourselves, so there is no provider between your bot and them.
| Feed | What it gives a bot | Used by | Page |
|---|---|---|---|
| Yellowstone gRPC | Transactions and account updates as the validator processes them | Copy-trading, sniper, arbitrage and MEV bots | gRPC nodes |
| Shredstream | Raw shreds earlier than gRPC, with no execution results | MEV bots, as an optional input | Shredstream |
| RPC | Account reads, simulation and sending a signed transaction | Every bot | RPC nodes |
| UltraSend | A relay that forwards a signed transaction exactly as it was signed | Any bot, as a sending route | UltraSend relay |
| Jito bundles | Up to five transactions that execute atomically, with a tip | MEV bots, and any bot that wants atomic sends | Jito bundle |
How the build runs
Four steps, no surprises. You know what is happening at every stage and you approve the quote before any code is written.
- 30-minute call
Scope call
You describe the strategy and the venues. We tell you whether we can build it, what it takes, and confirm the price.
- Fixed price
Written quote
A written spec with milestones, deliverables and the fixed price. Nothing starts until you approve it.
- Weekly demos
Build
A working demo every Friday against live mainnet data, so you see the bot decide before it trades.
- Support included
Ship and support
We deploy to a server you control, hand over the source and documentation, and stay on for two weeks of support.
What you receive
- The complete source code, in your repository
- A configuration reference for every rule
- Documentation and an operations runbook
- Deployment to a server you control, including NLN VPS or bare metal
- Two weeks of post-launch support at no extra cost
- Free NLN RPC and gRPC access while we build it
Software, not custody and not advice
Trading is a high-risk activity. We build the tool; what you do with it is yours to decide and yours to answer for.
You hold the keys and the funds.
We never take custody of your keys or your capital. The bot signs from a wallet in your environment.
We build software, not advice.
We do not recommend wallets to copy or tokens to buy, and nothing on this page is financial advice.
Bots can lose money.
Fees and slippage apply, failed transactions can still cost a fee, tokens can go to zero, and gaps close before a transaction lands. We make no claims about returns.
Running it is your call.
Rules differ by country. If you plan to offer the bot to other people, tell us on the scope call, because custody and licensing change the design.
Questions about Solana trading bots
Not here? Send the brief and ask on the scope call, or read how we work on custom development.
What is a Solana trading bot?
A Solana trading bot is software that watches on-chain data, decides with rules you set, and sends swaps from your own wallet. It automates a strategy you choose. It does not choose tokens or wallets for you, and it is not financial advice.
What types of Solana trading bots are there?
The main types are copy-trading bots, which mirror chosen wallets; sniper bots, which buy new pools that pass your rules; arbitrage bots, which trade price gaps between pools; MEV bots or searchers, which submit opportunities as Jito bundles; and Telegram bots, which let users trade by chatting. We also build DCA and indicator bots as custom work.
How much does it cost to build a Solana trading bot?
Every custom build is a fixed price between $500 and $2,000, agreed in writing before any work starts: copy-trading bots from $500 to $1,000, sniper bots from $500 to $1,000, arbitrage bots from $500 to $1,200, mev bots from $500 to $1,950 and telegram bots from $500 to $1,250. The total depends on the parts you choose. These are introductory prices while we open custom bot builds, and each page lists exactly what changes the price.
Can a trading bot guarantee profit?
No. A bot automates a strategy; it does not make the strategy profitable. Fees, slippage and failed transactions apply, tokens can go to zero, and gaps close before a transaction lands. We build software, not advice, and make no claims about returns.
Is it safe to use a trading bot with my wallet?
Use a dedicated trading wallet funded with only what you are prepared to lose. Every bot we build signs from a wallet on a server you control, so the keys never reach us. Risk limits, a kill switch and a decision log are part of the design.
How do I choose a Solana bot developer?
Ask who holds the keys, whether you own the source code, whether the price is fixed and in writing, what happens when a transaction fails, how decisions are logged, how the bot is tested before it trades, and what support follows. We answer all seven on this page.
Do I need to run my own Solana node?
No. Our builds connect to Yellowstone gRPC and RPC nodes that we operate, and you get free access to them while we build. For production you can keep using them, or run on your own infrastructure.
Can you build a different kind of bot?
Yes. The five on this page are the ones we have a fixed-price structure for. DCA, indicator and other strategy bots are built as custom work and scoped on a call. Describe what you need on the custom-development page and an engineer replies.
Do I own the code?
Yes. The source code, the documentation and the deployment scripts are yours, with two weeks of post-launch support included and no subscription or per-trade fee from us.
What does non-custodial mean for a trading bot?
It means the bot never holds your funds on your behalf. It signs swaps from a wallet you control, on a server you control, and we never take custody of your keys or your capital.
Tell us what the bot should do. We’ll scope it.
Send the brief and an engineer comes back with questions, not a sales script. Here is what happens next.
- 1An engineer reads your brief and replies by email to book a 30-minute scope call.
- 2You get a written spec and your fixed price after the call.
- 3Nothing starts until you approve the quote.
