# The Optiq Architecture
Optiq is built with scale, speed, and data integrity in mind. Below is a breakdown of the technical infrastructure that powers the platform.
**🔗 Tech Stack Overview**
| Layer | Stack |
| ------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Frontend** | React.js (with TypeScript), Tailwind CSS, Framer Motion |
| **Backend** | Node.js (NestJS), Redis (Pub/Sub), PostgreSQL, GraphQL |
| **Data Layer** | Solana JSON-RPC, Helius API, Tensor Trade API, Jito RPC |
| **Realtime Engine** | WebSockets + Redis Streams |
| **Alert System** | Temporal.io for job orchestration, BullMQ for queuing |
| **Authentication** | Wallet-based login (Phantom, Backpack etc.), JWT fallback |
| **Cloud** | Deployed via Vercel (Frontend) + AWS Lambda (Backend) |
| **Monitoring** | Datadog, Sentry, and custom Prometheus metrics on wallet events |
**Real-Time Indexing**
Optiq continuously listens to on-chain Solana activity through high-throughput RPC endpoints (Jito & Helius), dynamically indexing transactions, token movements, and NFT transfers. Wallets are categorized by behavior using a behavior-tree scoring model.
Each wallet is processed in <200ms through a lightweight data stream pipeline that queues it for user-facing analytics or internal tagging (e.g., "Scalp Wallet", "KOL", "AI Pick").
**AI-Based Behavior Classification (Coming Soon)**
Leveraging embeddings from token movement history and trade heuristics, Optiq classifies wallets by intent — speculation, farming, wash trading, or organic accumulation — and flags patterns for future alert systems.
### Aesthetic choices
The Optiq interface was designed around a black-and-yellow visual theme, a nod to hazard stripes, tactical gear, and the edge required to win in volatile markets.
This theme helps traders focus quickly on key metrics like PnL, win/loss rates, and scalp alerts — without clutter or unnecessary animations. Yellow highlights urgent information (alerts, spikes), while black provides contrast and depth.
