what's Nestora?

Nestora is a self-custodial DeFi savings application deployed on the Base blockchain, aimed at simplifying yield generation for users without deep DeFi knowledge. It allows creation of named "pockets" tied to personal savings goals, where users deposit any ERC-20 token that is automatically converted (zapped) via Enso Finance into YO Protocol's ERC-4626 compliant vaults—such as yoUSD (Conservative), yoBTC (Balanced), and yoETH (Aggressive). Key mechanics include one-transaction vault switching, real-time yield previews, and seamless withdrawals back to any token, all while maintaining user control over funds without lockups. Additional features enhance usability: auto-claiming of YO token rewards through Merkl integration, an AI-powered chatbot (Nora) for personalized strategies, savings calculators projecting growth versus traditional banks, guided onboarding tours, recurring deposit reminders, and a referral system. Built with Nuxt/Vue frontend, Supabase backend, and Privy for multi-method authentication (email, socials, Farcaster, wallets), it supports PWA mobile access and is available as a Farcaster Mini App and Base directory listing.

Nestora placed 3rd in Hack with YO hackathon for its consumer savings product using YO SDK.
