🤯 AI is about to get a LOT more dangerous… and a solution just emerged. 🚀
AI agents aren’t just chatbots anymore. They’re actively working – searching, deciding, *paying* for things like data & compute. The internet wasn’t built for this level of autonomous spending, creating a massive trust problem. Enter Kite.
Kite isn’t trying to make AI smarter, it’s tackling the core issue: how do we *trust* these agents with money? Their three-layer identity model – user, agent, session – is a game changer. It finally answers: who is acting, under what authority, and with what limits?
Existing systems like API keys are fundamentally broken. They offer all-or-nothing access, are vulnerable to long-term leaks, and lack clear accountability. Centralized authentication creates single points of failure and doesn’t offer agents a portable identity.
Kite’s layered approach mirrors real-world responsibility: ownership at the user level, delegated tasks for agents, and temporary, limited permissions for each session. This isn’t just about security; it’s about enabling safe, scalable autonomous commerce. 🔐
Spending limits can be set at *every* layer, preventing runaway agents and offering predictable risk for businesses. This is the difference between AI experimentation and real-world deployment. Kite provides a cryptographic, verifiable system where agents prove their identity across platforms.
Ultimately, Kite isn’t about intelligence, it’s about control. And in a world where software is handling real money, control is everything. This feels inevitable.
