FAQ
What Intentio covers, what it abstains on, and the limits.
Intentio turns the complex DeFi transactions your accounting tool leaves you to sort by hand into clean, categorized books — or abstains honestly. Here's exactly what that does and doesn't mean today.
- What kinds of transactions does Intentio resolve?
- The complex DeFi shapes that log-only tools mis-book: aggregator swaps through 1inch v6, 0x ExchangeProxy, and Uniswap's UniversalRouter; Uniswap V3 liquidity adds; and Aave V3 lending — supply, withdraw, borrow, and repay. Token→ETH valuation is next. Anything outside coverage is abstained, not guessed. See: Aggregator swaps · Uniswap V3 liquidity · Aave lending
- What happens to a transaction it doesn't support?
- It's marked abstained, with a reason, and kept in the output — never a confident-wrong number. A wrong number on a ledger is worse than a flagged one. You review the abstained rows and decide.
- Which blockchain does Intentio support?
- Ethereum mainnet today. The protocol contracts Intentio reads from — the routers, the Uniswap V3 position manager, and the Aave V3 Pool — are mainnet addresses. Other chains are on the roadmap.
- Does Intentio touch my funds or private keys?
- No. It's read-only: it works from public wallet addresses only — no wallet connect, no signing, no custody. It never moves anything.
- Does it make my tax or accounting decisions?
- No. Intentio recovers the correct economic event and prepares clean, categorized rows. Whether something is a taxable disposal, which cost-basis method applies, and how to map it to your chart of accounts are policy and tax calls you keep. It's the evidence and normalization layer, not your accounting brain.
- Does it replace my accounting software?
- No — it sits in front of it. Intentio is a pre-processor: it turns raw on-chain activity into clean, categorized books as a standard CSV / journal, ready to review and upload to the accounting tool you already use (tool-specific import profiles as we go).
- How does Intentio fit with my crypto subledger (Cryptio, Bitwave)?
- Most crypto-active teams run a crypto subledger in front of their general ledger — it handles valuation, cost basis, and the GL mapping. The catch: it auto-classifies the easy transactions but routes complex DeFi — aggregator swaps, LP, lending — to a manual review queue you clear by hand every close. Intentio sits upstream and resolves exactly those, so they arrive already classified instead of piling up. For Bitwave specifically, Intentio emits a Bitwave trade-import CSV today, and a direct enrich-only integration — writing the classification onto the transactions Bitwave already synced (matched by tx hash, so no new rows and no double-counting), leaving anything it can't prove in Bitwave's own review queue — is in progress (pending validation against a live Bitwave org). For any other subledger or GL (Cryptio, QuickBooks, Xero) it's a standard CSV / journal you import; per-tool profiles come as we go. Intentio doesn't replace the subledger — it removes its hand-classification work.
- Can I get a free correctness check on my existing books?
- Yes. Send a public wallet address and your accounting export (from whatever tool you use) and we'll return a free correctness report: each complex transaction we can prove, diffed against your books, with the mechanism-correct event and Etherscan evidence — separating clear mis-classifications (phantom volume, a borrow booked as income) from policy-review flags (where the mechanism is provable but the treatment is your call). It's read-only and needs no integration: public wallet addresses only, no wallet connect, no custody.
- What happens if the chain reorgs after I've closed the books?
- Intentio keeps a reorg-aware, audit-grade ledger that self-corrects: a transaction that gets reorged out leaves the books automatically, with the superseded version kept as evidence and confirmation status (pending → confirmed → final) explicit. (Live-node feed in progress.) See: The reorg-aware ledger
- What are the current limits?
- Coverage is deliberately narrow and honest. Aggregator swaps resolve for the three routers above, and only when the transfers net to a clean one-in / one-out. Uniswap V3 covers liquidity adds (removals and fee collection are next). Aave resolves one lending action per transaction (multi-action batches abstain). Ethereum mainnet only. Everything outside this abstains rather than mis-books.
