Give every AI agent real identities, inboxes, and a phone
AI agents are starting to access APIs, databases, SaaS tools, and other agents but most identity infrastructure wasn't built for them. Agent Identity gives every agent a persistent identity, credentials, permissions, and an audit trail, so developers can control what their agents can access and what they do. Built for developers building real agentic systems.
Hey everyone 👋
I’m Naol, the person behind Agent Identity.
I started building this because I kept running into the same question while working with AI agents:
What exactly is this agent, and what is it actually allowed to do?
An API key can give an agent access to something, but it doesn't really give you a proper identity, permissions model, or clear history of what that agent has done.
So I started building Agent Identity around that problem.
Today it gives agents:
→ persistent identity
→ scoped credentials
→ permissions and authorization
→ agent-to-agent communication
→ auditability
The product is live, and I'm still very early. I'm launching on Product Hunt because I want developers who are actually building agents to try it and tell me where this is useful, where it's overkill, and what's missing.
If you're building AI agents, I'd genuinely love to hear what you're using today for identity and access control.
And if something doesn't make sense, please tell me. That's probably more useful to me than a compliment lol

Who hunted Agent Identity?
Agent Identity was hunted by Naol Ketema. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
