# Swarms Weekly Ecosystem Update [August 11 - August 16]: The Tokenized Agent Screener, the GMGN Integration, and New Cloud Tutorials

This week's work concentrated on the market layer of the Swarms platform: how tokenized agents get discovered, tracked, and traded. The Screener launched as a dedicated live view of every tokenized agent on the Marketplace, and the GMGN integration extended that discoverability beyond Swarms surfaces entirely, putting Swarms agents in front of traders on one of the largest trading platforms on Solana.

The pattern connecting both releases is distribution. An agent that is published but hard to find might as well not exist, and until now the tokenized side of the Marketplace had no single place to answer basic questions: what launched today, what is trending, and where is the volume going. The Screener answers those questions inside the ecosystem, and GMGN answers them outside it, on a platform where the traders already are.

The rest of the week filled in the developer and company side. Two new video tutorials walk through the Auto Agent Builder and the Compare feature on Swarms Cloud, with a full course in production. The Vault Mode Competition entered its final days. Off-peak pricing on the Swarms API halved token costs overnight. And Swarms opened hiring across every function of the company.

## The Screener Puts Every Tokenized Agent on One Live Page

The Swarms launchpad now has a dedicated Screener for tokenized agents and prompts, live at [swarms.world/screener](https://swarms.world/screener). It tracks the entire tokenized agent ecosystem in one place: trending agents ranked by market cap, a near real-time feed of new token launches, live prices, price changes, and trading volume, plus contract addresses, creators, and launch details in a single view. Filters cover Frenzy Mode, Vault Mode, or both, so you can scope the view to a specific launch mechanic.

The data comes from on-chain sources. The Screener combines live feeds from Jupiter and Dune to compute market caps, prices, volume, and price changes, so the numbers reflect actual chain state rather than platform-reported figures. For creators, this is the first surface that shows where a launch stands against everything else on the Marketplace in real time. For everyone else, it is the fastest way to see which agents are gaining momentum as launches appear.

## Swarms Agents Are Now Discoverable and Tradable on GMGN

![Swarms x GMGN](/swarms_and_gmgn.png)

Swarms, the largest AI launchpad on Solana, is now integrated with GMGN. Swarms agents can be filtered directly from GMGN's Trenches tab, any agent can be found by pasting its contract address into GMGN's search bar, and tokenized agents on the Swarms launchpad can be bought through GMGN in one click.

The significance is where the integration puts Swarms agents: inside the workflow of traders who were never going to visit a Marketplace page first. GMGN brings its own analytics, discovery, and trading infrastructure, and the integration is expected to expand liquidity across the broader Swarms ecosystem by making tokenized agents easier to discover, track, and trade where trading already happens. More integrations of this kind are planned as the launchpad scales.

## Two New Video Tutorials Cover the Auto Agent Builder and the Compare Feature

![Swarms Cloud tutorials](/swarms_cloud_tutorials_banner.png)

Two new video tutorials from co-founder and CEO Kye Gomez walk through recent Swarms Cloud features in practice. The first introduces the Auto Agent Builder, which designs a complete agent team from a natural language task description, with specialized roles, system prompts, model selection, and generation parameters generated in seconds. The second covers the Compare feature, which runs the same task through multiple AI agents simultaneously and lays the responses out side by side, turning model and configuration choices into direct comparisons instead of sequential trial runs.

A complete Swarms Cloud course is in production, covering everything from fundamentals to advanced agent workflows. In the meantime, the Swarms API Course on Swarms Academy is available now with certification, and new Swarms Cloud signups get $5 in free credits to start building.

## The Vault Mode Competition Is in Its Final Days

![Vault Mode Competition](/vault_mode_competition.png)

The Vaulted Tokenized Agents Competition entered its final stretch this week, with less than five days remaining at the time of the announcement. The competition runs on Vault Mode, the launch mechanic that restricts agent access to holders of that agent's token, and pays out a $2,000 prize pool across the top three entries. Entering takes launching a tokenized agent with Vault Mode enabled and appearing on the competition leaderboard.

## Off-Peak Pricing Halves API Token Costs Overnight

Swarms API Off-Peak Pricing is live: 50% off token costs between 8 PM and 6 AM Pacific on Swarm Completions, across thousands of models including Fable and GPT-5.6 Sol. For workloads that can shift to overnight windows, batch processing, evaluation runs, scheduled agent jobs, the discount cuts inference costs in half with no change to the API surface. It is also an early production example of dynamic token pricing on the platform: prices that respond to demand rather than staying fixed around the clock.

## Swarms Is Hiring Across Every Function

Swarms opened hiring this week across engineering, research, growth, finance, and operations. Open roles include Front-end Engineer, Infrastructure DevOps Engineer, DevRel Lead, BD Manager, Head of Multi-Agent Research, Head of Marketplace Growth, and many more. The mission behind the roles is the same one behind the product: build the infrastructure for the agent economy and unlock the full potential of collective intelligence.

## Conclusion

This week built out the market infrastructure around tokenized agents from two directions at once. The Screener gives the ecosystem an internal source of truth for what is launching, trending, and trading, computed from on-chain data. The GMGN integration takes the same agents to an external audience of traders with their own tools and habits, and is expected to deepen liquidity across the ecosystem as a result.

Around that center, the platform kept lowering barriers: video tutorials that show the Auto Agent Builder and Compare feature in practice ahead of a full course, off-peak pricing that halves overnight API costs, and a competition cycle heading into its final days. The hiring push says the clearest thing about direction. Every one of these threads, market infrastructure, developer education, pricing, and distribution, is getting a team built around it.
