// About

Built by traders.
For traders.

Subglow started because we were tired of paying for data we didn't need. We ran trading bots on Solana — snipers, arbitrage, liquidity monitoring — and every provider gave us the same thing: the raw firehose. Thousands of transactions per second, 99% of which our bots immediately discarded.

We spent more time building and maintaining our parsing pipeline than our actual trading logic. Borsh deserialization, instruction decoding, Program ID filtering — hundreds of lines of boilerplate before a single trade could execute.

So we built what we wished existed: a gRPC service that filters and parses at the source. You tell us which programs you care about — Pump.fun, Raydium, Jupiter — and we deliver only matching transactions, already parsed to clean JSON. Your bot focuses on what it does best: trading.

Our infrastructure

Primary region
Frankfurt (NTT)

Colocated with major Solana validators for minimum hop count

Secondary region
Virginia (Equinix DC6)

US East coverage with automatic failover

Dedicated region
NY4 (Equinix)

Available for Dedicated tier — sub-2ms slot lag typical

Hardware
Bare metal

AMD EPYC, NVMe, 10Gbps — no virtualization overhead

Security & compliance

SOC 2 Type II

Annual audit covering security, availability, and confidentiality controls. Report available to Enterprise customers under NDA.

ISO 27001

Information security management system certified by independent auditor.

Encryption

All gRPC connections use TLS 1.3. API keys are hashed at rest with Argon2id. No plaintext storage.

Zero data retention

We do not store transaction data. Filtered events are streamed directly to your client and immediately discarded from memory.

Our principles

// 01

Speed is non-negotiable

Every architectural decision we make is measured in microseconds. We don't add features that add latency.

// 02

Transparency over marketing

We publish real latency numbers, not promises. Our status page shows actual slot lag, not vanity uptime percentages.

// 03

Trader-first, not enterprise-first

Our pricing starts at $99, not $999. We built for solo traders who need an edge, not procurement departments who need a checkbox.

// 04

No vendor lock-in

Standard gRPC protocol. Standard JSON output. If you leave, you change one endpoint URL. That's it.
