AI agent identity & authority

Verify what an AI agent is allowed to do

Truvera gives AI agents verifiable proof of who they represent and what they are authorized to do. The service receiving the request can verify that authority before it allows the action.

More than agent identity

Knowing who an agent is isn't enough.

When an AI agent acts on behalf of a person or organization, the receiving service needs to know more than its identity. It needs to know who authorized the agent, what it's allowed to do, and whether that authority is still valid.
