Welcome to Cantex

Institutional Grade DeFi on Canton

Welcome to the Cantex documentation. Cantex is an institutional-grade, on-chain exchange built on the Canton Network, designed for professional trading workflows with exchange-style precision, efficient settlement and a strong focus on privacy and security. Our goal is to deliver a modern trading experience; real-time markets, robust account controls and reliable infrastructure, while keeping users in control through non-custodial design principles.

These docs are intended to help you understand how Cantex works and how to integrate with it, including platform concepts, core features and technical references for developers and partners.

Please note that this documentation is a work in progress: sections may be incomplete, change as the product evolves, and occasionally lag behind the latest implementation. We appreciate your patience as we iterate and expand the content over time.

If it feels smooth, it’s the result of developers obsessing over the unglamorous parts
