cheqd Agentic Trust Solutions

Know Your Agent (KYA)& Build Trust Registries

Agentic Trust Solutions provides AI Agents with verifiable Trust Registries and digital credentials allowing them to prove their identities, permissions and competencies. We’re creating a powerful and trustworthy AI ecosystem, alongside our partners, by ensuring AI agents operate securely and accountably.

Our solution combines and builds upon tried and tested capabilities, already deployed at scale.

Key features

Trust Registries

Allow agents to prove their authenticity, accreditations, and origin, through tamper-proof trust registries.

Model Context Protocol Integration

Enable secure, standardised communication and credential exchange between AI agents, models, and tools. Including the first MCP servers to enable AI agents to read and write DIDs, issue and present VCs, and anchor their identity on a decentralised network.

Verifiable Credentials

Enable Agents to hold many, fine-grained, and context specific credentials anchored by trust registries to prove their right to represent a given individual or organisation, and competency within a given situation.

Industry leading & Future-Proofing

Ensure full compatibility across ecosystems. Built to open standards, including W3C (DID Core, DID-Linked Resources, Decentralised Trust Chains), and Trust over IP (Trust Registry Query Protocol).

cheqd Studio and our SDKs

Decide your level of control, from simple to complex. SDKs in multiple software languages to suit preferences and skillsets.

Credential Verification Tools

Leverage built-in tools like the TRAIN Universal Resolver to verify credentials via decentralised (DID-based) and traditional (DNS/X.509) trust chains, supporting multi-layered validation.

Challenges

For AI Agents to be fully adopted we need to overcome a few challenges.

The Trust and Transparency Gap

AI agents often operate as black boxes with unverified claims, which can lead to biased or harmful outcomes. They rely on sizeable datasets that raise ethical, privacy, and legal concerns.

Furthermore, agents currently do not have identities and therefore impersonation is easily possible and are already being used to execute scams. These are currently low-value but are rapidly increasing in sophistication and value.

The ‘Deepfake Elon Musk’ became the Internet’s biggest scammer, appearing in thousands of inauthentic ads, contributing to billions in fraud.

How cheqd solves this

Our approach uses industry-wide adopted tooling (MCP) as the communication backbone to enable Decentralised Trust Registries for AI agents at scale.

cheqd’s Agentic Trust Solution equips AI agents with tamper-proof digital credentials. They resemble secure ID cards containing verified claims such as developer identity, audit results, or granted permissions, issued by trusted parties. These credentials and their issuers are anchored in decentralised Trust Registries on the cheqd network. Ours and partners’ tools enable anyone to verify an agent’s credentials through decentralised or traditional trust chains (e.g. DNS, X.509), ensuring flexibility and interoperability. Additionally, cheqd supports fast payments, allowing trust anchors, content creators, and others, to be rewarded whenever their verified data is reused or authenticated

cheqd's verifiable AI offering

Our Agentic Trust Solution, alongside Content Credentials, is part of cheqd’s verifiable AI (vAI) offering that leverages a combination of Decentralised Identifiers (DIDs), Verifiable Credentials (VCs), Trust Registries, and Zero Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) to provide immutable records of AI agent behavior. These technologies enable AI agents to prove the authenticity of their decisions without revealing sensitive data.

Benefits

Easy and quick to get started

Get up and running in minutes. With cheqd’s MCP Server and developer toolkit, AI agents can instantly start issuing and verifying VCs. There’s no need for heavy custom integrations or proprietary systems.

Security

Secure your AI agents with tamper-proof credentials and trust registries. Every credential is cryptographically signed and traceable back to a trusted issuer. Developers and users can also maintain control over what an agent can or cannot do.

Participate in a Trust Network

Plug your agents into a growing, decentralised trust ecosystem. Through Trust Registries and DID-Linked Resources, your AI agents can be recognised by other trusted parties and credential issuers, including DAIAA members.

Recurring value

Create opportunities for recurring revenue models, such as requiring payments to check if an agent is trustworthy (which trust registry is the agent on and which attestation they hold).

Privacy-preserving

Grant your agents with privacy technology, such as zero knowledge proof and selective disclosure. Allowing your agents to prove their identity and actions without revealing more than necessary.

Auditability

Guarantee accountability through auditability. Every credential issued and verified through cheqd is backed by a verifiable trail. Whether you’re tracking authorisations, agent activity, or credential validity, the entire chain can be audited.

The Solution for you

cheqd Agentic Trust, ensures all AI agents interactions are verifiable. This refers to those between an agent and a user or between multiple agents.
