ZK Compression is a Solana framework that reduces the cost of token accounts and PDAs by 99%. Whether you're building the next DeFi protocol or integrating enterprise-grade stablecoin payments, our APIs help you scale. ## Token APIs | Creation Cost | Light Token | SPL / Token 2022 | | :---------------- | ---------------: | ---------------: | | **Mint Account** | **0.000091 SOL** | 0.0015 SOL | | **Token Account** | **0.000017 SOL** | 0.0029 SOL | High-performance token program and APIs that reduce account creation cost by 99%, while being more CU efficient on hot paths. The Light Token APIs are a superset of - and fully compatible with - SPL-Tokens. ### Integration Guides Learn how to integrate Light Token in your stablecoin payment infrastructure. Let users display and swap light-tokens in your wallet application. Build rent-free AMMs and DeFi programs with light-tokens. Stream token and mint events from the network in real-time. ### Cookbook & Reference Step-by-step recipes for every token operation. TypeScript and Rust SDKs, Anchor constraints and JSON RPC methods. Side-by-side mapping of every Light Token instruction against its SPL/Solana equivalent. ## PDA Accounts | Creation Cost | Light / Compressed | Solana Default | | :--------------- | -----------------: | -------------: | | **100-byte PDA** | \~0.000015 SOL | 0.0016 SOL | Solana PDAs with sponsored rent-exemption that you can use with minimal coding overhead. Works just like any other PDA, e.g. in your DeFi program. Compressed PDAs are the core primitive. They let you store user, app, or other infrequently accessed state without paying rent-exemption fees at all. ## AI Native Development Install orchestrator agent skill or view [skill.md](https://www.zkcompression.com/skill.md): ```bash theme={null} npx skills add https://zkcompression.com ``` Install or view [dedicated agent skills](/ai-tools/overview#agent-skills). ``` npx skills add Lightprotocol/skills ``` Connect AI tools to the Light Protocol repository via MCP and DeepWiki. ```bash theme={null} claude mcp add -s user -t http deepwiki https://mcp.deepwiki.com/mcp claude mcp add -s user -t http zkcompression https://www.zkcompression.com/mcp ``` ```bash theme={null} codex mcp add zkcompression -- npx -y mcp-remote@latest https://www.zkcompression.com/mcp codex mcp add deepwiki -- npx -y mcp-remote@latest https://mcp.deepwiki.com/mcp ``` ```json theme={null} { "mcpServers": { "deepwiki": { "serverUrl": "https://mcp.deepwiki.com/sse" }, "zkcompression": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote@latest", "https://www.zkcompression.com/mcp"] } } } ``` Copy-paste prompts for common integration tasks. ## Resources Learn about the Light Token program and ZK Compression Core.
