Solana is fast. Geyser is faster. Yellowstone gRPC Geyser is a high-speed, plugin-based interface that streams live Solana blockchain data directly from validator memory, eliminating the latency of traditional RPC methods.

​
Geyser is available starting from Growth

Geyser is available as a separate paid add-on starting from the Growth plan.
Benefits
  • Real-time streaming of transactions, account updates, blocks, and slot changes.
  • Uses a standard gRPC interface with protobuf-formatted payloads.
  • Accessible from any language supporting gRPC (Python, Go, Rust, JavaScript).
  • Ideal for analytics, sniping bots, MEV strategies, data indexing, real-time dashboards, and compliance monitoring.
  • from_slot/fromSlot support to replay and recover missed events. For an example, see learning-examples/historical_replay_with_from_slot.py in Solana Geyser Python tutorial.
