Liquidity is fragmented across dozens of decentralised exchanges, so the best price for your swap is rarely all in one pool. A DEX aggregator splits your trade across multiple sources to find better execution than any single venue — often saving far more than it costs. For anything beyond a tiny swap, using an aggregator instead of a single DEX is simply the correct default.
Different aggregators win on different pairs and trade sizes. Meta-tools like LlamaSwap compare real-time quotes from 1inch, 0x, ParaSwap, Odos and others — including gas — and show you which gives the best net price, at no added fee. Checking several at once reliably beats committing to one. On Solana, Jupiter dominates and is the default; on EVM, 1inch is the most battle-tested.
Standard swaps are visible in the mempool, letting MEV bots front-run and sandwich you — a hidden tax on every trade. For meaningful size on EVM chains, use an aggregator with MEV protection: 1inch's Fusion intent mode or CoW Swap's batch auctions, which structurally remove the sandwich opportunity. The trade-off is slightly slower settlement in exchange for materially better execution.
In order of impact: price impact and slippage (the biggest cost on anything but tiny trades, and the whole reason aggregators exist); MEV (a real tax on visible EVM swaps); and gas (matters most on Ethereum mainnet, where a complex route can cost more in gas than it saves). Set a sensible slippage tolerance — too high invites sandwiching, too low fails the trade — and factor gas into the comparison, which is why net-price meta-tools are the right first check.
