Our platform enables fund managers, distributors, and investors to issue, distribute, and access tokenized funds — including money market funds, credit funds, and other regulated instruments — across supported blockchain networks. ### Products #### Network The Synthesys Network API is a platform- and network-agnostic gateway for subscribing to and redeeming supported fund tokens. Distributors integrate with a single API to transact in any supported fund, on any supported network. → [Network Overview](https://app.gitbook.com/o/BbDw8qxiD4iZQRzPM5jU/s/EUueKVAKme0xOudPR7Pz/~/edit/~/changes/1/network-overview) → [API Reference](https://app.gitbook.com/o/BbDw8qxiD4iZQRzPM5jU/s/EUueKVAKme0xOudPR7Pz/~/edit/~/changes/1/network/api-reference) #### Zodiac Zodiac is a DeFi protocol that wraps permissioned fund tokens into composable, permissionless zTokens. This unlocks DeFi participation — collateral, lending, DEX trading — without giving up exposure to the underlying fund. → [Zodiac Overview](https://app.gitbook.com/o/BbDw8qxiD4iZQRzPM5jU/s/EUueKVAKme0xOudPR7Pz/~/edit/~/changes/1/zodiac-overview) → [Investor Guide](https://app.gitbook.com/o/BbDw8qxiD4iZQRzPM5jU/s/EUueKVAKme0xOudPR7Pz/~/edit/~/changes/1/zodiac/investor-guide) #### Mint Mint is the tokenization and fund administration platform that powers the issuance lifecycle. It handles NAV calculations, subscription and redemption processing, token minting and burning, and on-chain settlement for fund managers who don't have their own issuance infrastructure. → [Mint Overview](https://app.gitbook.com/o/BbDw8qxiD4iZQRzPM5jU/s/EUueKVAKme0xOudPR7Pz/~/edit/~/changes/1/mint-overview) ### Getting Started **If you are a distributor** looking to integrate with tokenized funds programmatically, start with Network → How It Works and then move to the Integration Guide. **If you are an investor** looking to access tokenized fund yield through DeFi, start with the Zodiac Investor Guide. **If you are a fund manager** looking to tokenize your fund, start with Mint Overview and reach out to the Synthesys team at . ### Contact For onboarding, integration support, or general inquiries: * **Developer support:** * **General inquiries:** --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
