# Getting Started ## Overview Getting started with Paravel takes less than 2 minutes. There is no manual strategy selection or configuration required. Once you deposit, capital is automatically managed by the system. *** ## Step-by-Step ### 1. Open the App Go to: *** ### 2. Connect Your Wallet Connect using: * MetaMask * WalletConnect * Any supported Web3 wallet *** ### 3. Choose a Vault Select a vault based on your risk preference: * **USDC Vault** → Designed for stable, lower-volatility yield * **ETH Vault** → Designed for ETH-denominated growth *** ### 4. Deposit Assets Approve and deposit your selected assets into the vault. Once confirmed: * Your funds enter the Paravel system * You receive **iPrVL tokens**, representing your vault share *** ### 5. Active Management Begins After deposit, your capital is automatically managed by Paravel’s system of AI agents. The system will: * Allocate capital across strategies * Monitor performance and risk conditions * Rebalance positions dynamically * Compound returns over time No further user action is required. *** ## What Happens After Deposit Once funds are deployed, the system operates continuously: * Capital is distributed across multiple strategies * Agents monitor performance in real time * Underperforming strategies are reduced or removed * Capital is reallocated toward stronger opportunities * Profits are automatically reinvested *** ## Withdrawing Funds You can exit your position at any time by redeeming your **iPrVL tokens**. Withdrawal process: * A redemption request is submitted * Positions are unwound through a controlled exit process * A manual safety review may apply (up to 72 hours) in abnormal conditions * Funds are returned to your wallet after settlement This process ensures positions are unwound safely and without destabilizing active strategies. *** ## Monitoring Your Position The dashboard provides full transparency into your vault activity: * Total Value Locked (TVL) and performance * Active agents and capital allocation * Real-time risk and health metrics * Historical returns and performance statistics (including Sharpe ratio) *** ## Key Principles * You retain full custody of your wallet at all times * All activity is visible on-chain * Risk management operates continuously in the background * No manual strategy management is required *** ## Key Idea Deposit once. The system handles allocation, execution, and optimisation. You can monitor or withdraw at any time. --- # Agent Instructions: 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.
