Introduction
Build on Solana with shreds.xyz. Query chain state, send transactions, subscribe to live updates, or receive raw shreds for your own ingestion pipeline.
Choose a product
| Product | What you get | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| RPC | JSON-RPC over HTTPS and a separate SWQoS submission endpoint | Application reads, history, and sending signed transactions |
| WebSocket | Solana PubSub over WSS | Watching accounts, logs, signatures, and slots |
| Yellowstone gRPC | Structured streams with server-side filters | Indexers and continuous account and transaction processing |
| Flash gRPC | Decoded pre-execution transactions over Yellowstone gRPC | Early signals with execution confirmed separately |
| Shreds | Raw Solana shreds delivered over UDP | Custom ledger reconstruction and transaction decoding |
RPC answers individual requests. WebSocket and gRPC push updates. Shreds supplies the fragments your application reconstructs itself.
