# How it works

1. **You choose a strategy** — Bluechip, Volatile, or your own asset picks.
2. **A private vault is deployed for you.** It is a smart contract you own; the agent is granted operator rights only.
3. **You deposit.** Capital arrives, the agent [plants](/agent/plant) ranges in the pools the strategy selects.
4. **The agent tends the position** around the clock — [rebalancing](/agent/tend) when price leaves a range, [harvesting](/agent/harvest) emissions and fees, [rotating](/agent/rotate) venues when yield migrates.
5. **You exit whenever you like.** The vault unwinds to your base asset; a fee is taken only on realised profit above your [high-water mark](/fees/high-water-mark).

<Tip>Every action the agent takes is an on-chain event you can see in your vault's [statement](/vault/statements).</Tip>
