In development — waitlist open

Verifiable identity for AI agents

Sworncard is an issuer-side service, currently in development. Agent passports are designed to give a verifier evidence about who an agent is, what it may do, and who stands behind it — as signed credentials rather than a claim in a prompt.

Our release axis

Three steps of increasing evidence. This is Sworncard's own release axis, not a rating defined by any standards body.

  1. self-declared

    The agent states its own attributes. Nothing is attested by a third party — useful for discovery, not for trust decisions.

  2. attested

    Sworncard is designed to issue credentials that bind an agent's stated capabilities to an attestation signed by us, and to publish their revocation status.

  3. verified-owner Planned

    Designed to add a verified identity for the party behind the agent, so a verifier can see who is accountable, not only what the agent claims.

Flow diagram: an owner requests an attestation from an issuer; the issuer signs it; the agent presents it; a verifier checks the signature and revocation status.
Who signs what: the owner asks, the issuer signs, the agent presents, the verifier checks.

Regulatory context

  • Since Aug 2, 2026, EU AI Act Article 50 requires providers of AI systems intended to interact directly with people to ensure those people are informed they are interacting with AI (unless that is obvious from the context). Sworncard is designed to support that disclosure with verifiable evidence — a tool, not a compliance guarantee.
  • Machine-readable marking of synthetic audio, image, video and text outputs: the transitional period ends Dec 2, 2026 for generative systems placed on the market before Aug 2, 2026.
  • High-risk obligations for Annex III use-cases (Art. 6(2)) apply from Dec 2, 2027.

Standards

Designed for DIF KYA-OS: Protocol 1.0 (ratified July 2026); targeting the Entity Card 1.1 profile (current DIF TAAWG work item).

KYA-OS is the DIF work formerly known as MCP-I (ex-MCP-I).

Proposals submitted for discussion in the working group.

Roadmap

  • Planned Revocation kill-switch. Designed to withdraw an agent's standing across a delegation chain in one action.
  • Planned Owner KYC levels (basic / enhanced / loa3). Designed to let a verifier see how strongly the party behind an agent was identified.
  • Planned HTTP Message Signatures (RFC 9421) / Web Bot Auth compatibility. Designed so an agent's request can be checked by verifiers that already speak those protocols.

For people: Idemnia

Sworncard is for AI agents. For people there is Idemnia — personal identity cards.
