AI MODEL ARCHITECTURE · 5-STAGE PIPELINE
01
INGEST
All pending txns streamed from mempool via gRPC. Parsed for tip, compute units, account keys, and Jito bundle membership.
stream.filter( tip > MIN_TIP )
→
02
CONFLICT GRAPH
DAG built over account state dependencies. Transactions writing to the same account flagged — only one can execute per block.
G.add_edge(a,b) if overlap( a.keys, b.keys)
→
03
SCORE
Each transaction scored via weighted function. Weights updated per epoch from historical block reward data via gradient descent.
s = w1*tip + w2*cu_eff - w3*conflict + w4*jito
→
04
OPTIMIZE
Greedy knapsack over conflict-free subgraph. Maximizes total bundle score subject to 48M CU block limit. Runs in <2ms.
bundle=knapsack( txns, CU_MAX=48e6)
→
05
SUBMIT
Bundle submitted to Jito block engine with leader schedule awareness. Tip split 95/5. Confirmation within 1 block.
jito.submit( bundle, tip_split=.95)

HOW SWQOS WORKS
Stake-Weighted QoS gives validators with more delegated SOL priority packet processing. Ironclad's AI engine routes high-fee transactions through preferred lanes, capturing the spread between standard and priority execution.
