Vouched Launches Agent Checkpoint to Establish Trust in the Age of AI Agents

Agent Checkpoint brings transparency, security, and control to the new era of AI-to-AI commerce.

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Vouched, the leader in AI-powered identity verification, today announced Agent Checkpoint, a groundbreaking platform that helps organizations confidently engage in the next frontier of digital transformation: agentic commerce. Building from the release of the Agent Shield identification platform in May 2025, Agent Checkpoint is a full suite of agent identification & permissioning for website operators.

As AI changes how business gets done, intelligent agents are now completing tasks and making purchases on behalf of humans and, increasingly, other agents. This shift brings new efficiency and growth opportunities, but also complex questions about identity, trust, and control.

“Every website is realizing they now have AI agents coming through their login button, using the username and password of humans. These sites have no way to tell agents apart from humans, or even to know if a given agent is trustworthy. Agents are breaking all the prior rules of cybersecurity,” said Peter Horadan, CEO of Vouched. “Agent Checkpoint gives businesses the clarity and confidence to know exactly who, or what, they’re dealing with.”

Across Vouched’s customer base, between 0.5% and 16% of all incoming traffic now comes from AI agents. Agent Checkpoint, the flagship in Vouched’s new Know Your Agent (KYA) suite, helps enterprises reduce agentic fraud while enabling secure, agent-driven revenue opportunities.

Agent Checkpoint allows humans to stay in control of agentic activity through capabilities that build trust without slowing innovation:

• Authentication: Securely verify and authenticate human-to-agent interactions using OAuth.
• Delegation: Let humans precisely define which actions or permissions an agent can perform.
• Legal Authorization: Require explicit approval before agents make binding commitments.
• Revocation: Instantly revoke permissions as conditions change.
• Auditability: Maintain complete audit trails for compliance and security.

"We are moving from a world where humans are the primary consumer to one in which AI agents transact at scale,” said Rosalyn Curato, Chief Innovation Officer & GM of Agentic Security at Vouched. “Agent Checkpoint sits at the center of this shift by establishing the trust required for organizations to lean into agentic commerce with confidence. Enterprises shouldn’t have to choose between innovation and risk, and now they don’t have to."

Agent Checkpoint anchors the Know Your Agent (KYA) product family, the first comprehensive solution set designed for the agentic era. The suite includes:

• Agent Checkpoint: Detects, classifies, and governs AI agent interactions in real time through Detect, Enforce, and Govern components.
• MCP-I (Model Context Protocol – Identity): Built on Anthropic’s open-source Model Context Protocol, MCP-I establishes open standards for agent identity and delegation.
• Know That AI: A public registry that provides transparency and verification for trusted AI agents.
• Identiclaw: Enables autonomous agents to act under limited permissions with full audit trails, minimizing credential risk.

By setting a new benchmark for agentic identity management, Vouched is ensuring that organizations can embrace automation securely and responsibly. With Agent Checkpoint and the KYA suite, enterprises can finally unlock the potential of AI agents — without compromising trust.
