Stream scheduled Solana transactions
Pre Confirmations stream transactions the instant a validator's scheduler commits to executing them — earlier than shred delivery and confirmed-commitment streams.
Available on Professional plans and higher
A filtered firehose, built for the fast path
Open a single preconfSubscribe WebSocket and stream scheduled transactions as compact binary frames, a fixed 18-byte header your decoder reads in nanoseconds.

Preconfs are an early signal, not a guarantee
A preconfirmation means a validator's scheduler has committed to executing the transaction, but it has not yet landed onchain and could still fail or drop. Coverage scales with participating validator stake, so expect and account for gaps.
The earliest point in the transaction lifecycle
Latency increases from left to right. Pre Confirmations tap the scheduled-transaction stage before shreds exist.
Subscribe once, react first
Open a subscription
Connect to the Helius Gatekeeper endpoint and send a single `preconfSubscribe` request. Filter by account, region, or status. Only stream what you care about.
Get the earliest signal
Notifications arrive as compact binary frames with the slot, transaction index, status, and full transaction as soon as the scheduler commits to executing them.
Pay per message
10 credits per streamed transaction, billed from your plan like any Helius WebSocket subscription. Pre Confirmations is a new product and pricing is subject to change.
