Architecture

ILLA’s architecture is organised around a deliberate separation: an opinionated core and agnostic edges.

​
Core

The core is where every financial intent is processed. It is opinionated about how AI systems should handle real money: how ambiguity is resolved, how risk is evaluated, how transactions are constructed and verified. Every request, without exception, flows through three layers:

Intelligence

Resolves natural language into precise, structured execution plans.

Safety

Architectural separation between probabilistic reasoning and deterministic execution.

Engine

Turns approved plans into coordinated transaction sequences.

​
Edges

The edges are where ILLA connects to the outside world. They are intentionally agnostic, designed to extend as the landscape evolves.

Capabilities

Aggregate financial operations across an expanding set of protocols and networks.

Developers

SDK, API, and MCP Server — how to build with ILLA.

Hub & Wallets

Identity, wallet provisioning, and unified configuration across all ILLA surfaces.

​
Why this separation

The agnostic edges make ILLA durable. As new agentic interfaces and wallets emerge, ILLA plugs in. As new financial protocols and rails come online, ILLA integrates. The opinionated core means the safety properties, planning, and orchestration capabilities are consistent regardless of what connects at the edges. They cannot be replicated by wiring together generic tools. Each layer is non-trivial alone. Together, they form a system that cannot be replicated by wiring generic tools together.
