# Intent feed

Intents are loan agreement proposals that a lender may choose to fill. 

It is possible to either fill a loan immediately, or watch the max interest rate tick up until it meets a desired threshold. Once a wallet has been connected to Astaria, simply click the **Fill** button to accept the indicated loan terms.

Using the Intent Feed to scan for loan requests is the *fastest* way to get your capital active.

Intents are live for 24 hours. The interest rate will increase continuously until a lender decides to accept the loan terms, or the 24 hour period ends and the intent expires. If you have the necessary funds to fill a loan, keep an eye on the feed to fill it at an attractive interest rate.

If a lender accepts the terms, the loan will execute automatically. After 24 hours, a lender can hold a[ recall auction](https://docs.astaria.xyz/user-guides/loan-recall-and-liquidation).
