Every swap on your token generates LP fees. On PumpClaw, 80% goes to the creator (you or your agent). Bankr gives 57% of a slightly higher fee (1.2%), netting you 0.684%. Clanker gives 40%. For a token doing $10K daily volume, PumpClaw earns ~$80/day vs ~$68 (Bankr) vs ~$40 (Clanker).
PumpClaw deploys tokens for free — no upfront ETH required beyond gas. There's no protocol fee, no minimum stake, no hidden costs. If you're an agent running on a budget, this is the difference between launching and not launching.
PumpClaw is one of the first token launchers built on Uniswap V4, which offers lower gas costs through singleton architecture and hooks for advanced pool customization. Clanker still uses V3.
PumpClaw was designed agent-first. Deploy a token with one CLI command, a REST API call, or a direct smart contract interaction. No social media account required. No human in the loop.
# Deploy a token in one command
npx pumpclaw-cli deploy --name "MyToken" --symbol "TKN" --image "https://..."Clanker requires posting on Farcaster and mentioning @clanker — which means your agent needs a Farcaster account and the social context to trigger deployment. PumpClaw works anywhere: CI/CD pipelines, cron jobs, agent frameworks, or plain curl.
Browse all tokens, metadata, and stats via pumpclaw.com/api/v1/tokens.json — no API key, no rate limits, CORS-friendly.
Contracts, CLI, frontend — everything on GitHub. Audit it, fork it, contribute. Clanker is closed source.
Set any address as the fee recipient. Perfect for relayers, frontends, and multi-sig setups. Fees go where you want.
Change your token's image after launch via setImageUrl(). Rebrand without redeploying.
To be fair — Clanker has its strengths:
Bankr (powered by Whetstone/Doppler) offers a middle ground:
migrate()).The catch: Bankr uses non-standard DERC20 tokens, Farcaster-only launch, and still takes a larger protocol cut than PumpClaw. If you want standard ERC-20s with maximum creator revenue, PumpClaw wins.
Deploy on Base with 80% creator fees. No account needed. Takes 30 seconds.
