# Decoded Shreds

> Decoded raw shreds delivered via the standard Yellowstone gRPC interface. Coming in v1.1.

<Note>
**Status:** coming soon. Decoded Shreds is on the v1.1 roadmap and is not part of v1.0.
</Note>

Decoded Shreds (also known as **aRPC**) wraps raw Solana shreds in the standard Yellowstone gRPC protocol, so you get shred-level latency with familiar gRPC tooling.

## What it is

Raw shreds give you Solana data faster than RPC or gRPC, but processing UDP packets directly is awkward. Decoded Shreds removes that friction:

- Supanode receives shreds at the network edge (Shred Caster on XDP).
- Supanode decodes them into transaction-level events.
- Supanode exposes the events through the standard Yellowstone gRPC stream.

You get the latency advantage of [Raw Shreds](https://supanode.xyz/docs/solana/shreds/raw) with the integration simplicity of [gRPC](https://supanode.xyz/docs/solana/grpc/overview).

## When should you use Decoded Shreds vs Raw Shreds vs gRPC?

| You need... | Use this |
|---|---|
| Lowest possible latency, raw UDP, you handle decoding | [Raw Shreds](https://supanode.xyz/docs/solana/shreds/raw) |
| Lower latency than gRPC, but standard gRPC integration | **Decoded Shreds** |
| Standard real-time streams (most cases) | [gRPC](https://supanode.xyz/docs/solana/grpc/overview) |

<Tip>
**Available today:** for shred-level latency right now, use [Raw Shreds](https://supanode.xyz/docs/solana/shreds/raw) (UDP, Frankfurt). For standard streaming with rich filters, use [gRPC](https://supanode.xyz/docs/solana/grpc/overview).

## Pricing

Pricing is in finalization. Will land alongside the v1.1 release.
