A DeFi dashboard that shows real yield,
after fees, after risk, not before

What it is and who needs it

A DeFi dashboard aggregates a user’s positions across lending protocols, liquidity pools and staking into one view, and the only version worth building shows real yield: the number after fees, after impermanent loss on a liquidity pool, after the gas spent entering and exiting a position. A gross APY headline is marketing, not a dashboard. This is for a crypto product adding portfolio visibility for its users, or a team managing enough DeFi exposure themselves to need a single real-numbers view instead of five protocol tabs.

What is inside

Position aggregation across the protocols your users actually hold, lending, liquidity pools, staking, read from on-chain data and protocol subgraphs rather than a single third-party API that might lag or miscategorize a position. Real yield calculation that nets out protocol fees, impermanent loss on LP positions, and the gas cost of entering and exiting, so the number on screen matches what a user would actually realize if they closed the position today. Liquidation risk alerts for leveraged positions, calculated against the protocol’s actual liquidation threshold, not a generic percentage. Historical performance charting, per position and in aggregate, so a user can see whether a strategy is actually working over time rather than relying on a single snapshot. A watchlist feature lets a user track a protocol or pool they do not currently hold, useful for deciding where to move funds next without opening five separate protocol sites.

How we build it

We start with the protocol list your users actually touch, since each protocol’s position data, fee structure and liquidation logic is different enough that a generic adapter produces generic, often wrong, numbers. Real-yield calculation is the part we build and test most carefully, because a dashboard that overstates returns is worse than no dashboard, it actively misleads a decision. Liquidation alerting is built against the protocol’s real threshold logic and tested against historical liquidation events where data allows, not a simple price-drop percentage that misses the actual mechanism. We apply the same analytical discipline here that we use on our own analytics work across other industries, numbers a team can act on, not a number that looks good in a screenshot. We validate the real-yield calculation against each protocol’s actual historical data where it is available, comparing our computed number to what a careful manual calculation would produce, because this is the one number on the dashboard that, if wrong, actively misleads a financial decision. A working version is demoed weekly against live protocol data so discrepancies surface early rather than after launch. We also build in a visible data-freshness indicator, so a user can tell at a glance whether a number reflects the current block or a slightly stale cache during a network slowdown.

Timeline and price

Timeline: 3 to 6 weeks for an MVP; production builds typically run longer depending on integrations.

What you own at the end

The data pipeline and historical database, in your own infrastructure. The dashboard front end, in your repository. Since the product only reads public chain data and the user’s own connected wallet, there is no custody question to resolve at handover, you are not taking on a liability you did not have before. The yield-calculation methodology itself is documented in plain terms, so your team can explain to a user exactly why a number is what it is, rather than treating it as a black box.
