> [*VaultCraft is an on-chain, permissionless protocol where anyone can spin up a vault — an automated asset strategy that optimizes returns on user-deposited funds. This is the first open infrastructure allowing for the modularization of vaults using a protocol-endorsed VaultFactory that ensures the safety of the strategy and its contracts. Vaults can interact with a variety of protocols through the ERC4626-Wrapper and are also stackable in design, meaning you can stack on top of other vaults.* ](/products/vaultcraft-vci-and-sdk.md)

VaultCraft smart contracts allow users to customize and generate yield on their crypto assets through the automation of yield-generating strategies. The automation of common yield-generating functions via **vaults** such as claiming, staking, compounding, re-supplying, leveraging, and swapping of cryptocurrencies means that users:

1. Save time
2. Pay less in transaction fees
3. Generate yield on their crypto holdings with little overhead or knowledge
