# Autopools tl;dr

## **A New Way to LP**

**The Auto Pools protocol, a novel LP Aggregator, unlocks a new way to LP through automated yield optimization.**\
\
Users deposit assets into an autopool, each representing a set of potential deployment destinations for the autonomous rebalance logic.&#x20;

From there, the Autopool Rebalance Logic takes over, autonomously monitoring the underlying pools and leveraging its powerful framework to rebalance – thus abstracting the complexity associated with rebalancing, compounding, and staking of LP tokens away from the user.\
\
The autopool receipt tokens (e.g., autoETH) are yield-bearing and can be seamlessly integrated across DeFi.

### Effortless Access to LP Optimization

The user experience is simple:

1. LP chooses an autopool, deposit any asset via a simple, gas-optimized transaction and gets back the yield-bearing receipt token (e.g. autoETH)
   1. The autopool monitors the underlying destinations and rebalances
   2. Rewards auto-compound back into the autopool
2. LP uses Dashboard to keep track of the autopool's performance and other metrics

Providing liquidity to a set of destinations becomes as simple as swapping tokens or making a simple deposit.

> **"What DEX aggregators did for traders, autopools are doing for LPs."**

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.auto.finance/auto-pools-protocol/autopools-tl-dr.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
