# Vaults

Vaults are financial tools that utilize certain strategies for yield farming. They use automation to constantly invest and reinvest funds to generate compound interest. Utilizing a Goat vault can save time and transaction costs by automatically handling the processes of harvesting rewards, buying tokens, and reinvesting them frequently.

Summarizing, vaults can:

* Execute yield farming strategies.
* Compound rewards into the initially deposited token.
* Put any asset to work to generate a yield.
* Reinvest earned profits.
