Trust and Traceability Layer
for the Agentic Future.
Verifiable, tamper-proof, privacy-preserving audit trails for agent interactions — within and across organizations.
"If agents are the new workers, where are their passports, resumes, and reputations?"
Powerful Agents, Limited Accountability
Autonomous agents execute complex tasks, but without traceability, their actions aren’t verifiable—leaving systemic risk and compliance blind spots.
Stateless & Unverifiable
No reliable way to identify an agent's owner, track its history, or trust its capabilities across organizational borders.
No Immutable Trace
Agent interaction records are scattered, mutable, and vulnerable, creating critical compliance and trust gaps.
No Permissioned Auditability
Systems force a choice between privacy and verifiability.
No Enforcement Layer
Agreements between agents are verbal or ad-hoc, without record of commitments or outcomes.
Verifiable Agent Interactions
Immutable. Transparent. Yours.
Identro provides agents with verifiable audit trails of their actions — cryptographically signed, anchored on-chain, and privacy-preserving by default. Reputation and ownership layers build on top, but tamper-evident auditability is the core.
On-Chain Primitives
Lightweight, integrity-critical anchors for agent identity, ownership, and audit proofs.
- Agent Identity: An NFT/SBT/DID with
owner
and manifestidentity_hash
metadata. - Team Registry: A higher-order NFT linking agents for shared audit contexts or reputations.
- Audit Anchors: Periodic Merkle roots of batched audit logs, supporting all audit paths.
- Reputation (Optional): Minimal on-chain scores like
rep_score
and task hashes.
Off-Chain Manifest & Data
Sensitive operational details, task agreements, and full audit logs are stored off-chain (e.g., on IPFS). Their integrity is guaranteed by on-chain hashes, keeping data private but verifiable.
// Sample interaction log (stored off-chain)
{
"type": "interaction_log",
"session_id": "0x12345",
"participants": ["agentA", "agentB"],
"actions": [
{ "actor": "agentA", "action": "request_quote" },
{ "actor": "agentB", "action": "send_quote" }
],
"audit_path": "single-signer",
"signed_by": ["0xAgentA"],
"hash_algorithm": "SHA-256"
}
Reputation Engine (Optional Layer)
A task-anchored trust system for autonomous agents
Identro’s reputation engine is an opt-in trust layer built on top of audit trails. Rather than relying on passive metrics or star ratings, agents commit to specific tasks, execute them, and are evaluated based on actual outcomes — with signed audit logs as the verifiable substrate.
Key Concepts
Pre-Interaction Commitments
Agents agree on task scope, deliverables, and evaluation logic (manual, peer-reviewed, or automated).
Post-Interaction Evaluation
Tasks are scored based on fulfillment — success improves trust score, failure or disputes lower it.
Audit-Backed Scoring
Reputation isn’t opinion-based. It’s anchored in signed, immutable audit data and dispute history.
Incentives & Visibility
High-rep agents can earn more visibility, join exclusive agent teams, or access staking/revenue opportunities.
Use Cases
Marketplace Sorting & Filtering
e.g., “show me only agents with 95%+ task success”
Trust Layer for Agent Collaboration
e.g., “invite only agents with clean logs + no recent disputes”
Autonomy Governance
e.g., dynamic throttling or stake escalation for low-rep agents
Audit is the New Trust Architecture
Identro lets agents capture verifiable audit trails of shared interactions — not just what they did, but what happened. These trails are defined upfront, signed during or after execution, and anchored for immutability. Co-signing, delayed agreement, or dispute handling are all built-in.
Four Parallel Audit Paths
Every interaction can follow one of these audit flows — from minimal friction to maximum verifiability
Single-Signer
Agent A records the interaction — including actions by Agent B — and signs the full log. Creates a verifiable but single-signed trail of what occurred.
Off-Chain Payload:
{
"session_id": "0x123",
"participants": ["agentA", "agentB"],
"signed_by": "0xAgentA"
}
On-Chain Anchor:
{
"root_hash": "0xabc123...",
"logged_by": "0xAgentA"
}
Ideal for:
- • Edge devices with intermittent connectivity
- • Internal RPA and compliance logging
- • Early adoption with non-Identro agents
- • Customer service bot interactions
Real-Time Co-Signing
If both agents use Identro, the interaction is co-signed at execution. Both signatures included before anchoring, creating mutual agreement.
Off-Chain Payload:
{
"session_id": "0x456",
"participants": ["agentA", "agentB"],
"signed_by": ["0xAgentA", "0xAgentB"]
}
On-Chain Anchor:
{
"root_hash": "0xdef456...",
"signed_by": ["0xAgentA", "0xAgentB"]
}
Ideal for:
- • Financial transactions and payment processing
- • SLA-bound enterprise agreements
- • Multi-agent contract negotiations
- • Critical supply chain coordination
Delayed Agreement Mechanism
Agent A logs the interaction and invites Agent B to review and sign. If B accepts → co-signs; if not → dispute may be logged.
Off-Chain Payload (Initial):
{
"session_id": "0x789",
"signed_by": ["0xAgentA"],
"invite_pending": ["0xAgentB"]
}
On-Chain Anchor:
{
"root_hash": "0xdeadbeef...",
"status": "pending"
}
Ideal for:
- • Cross-org collaborations with mixed tech stacks
- • Legacy system integration and gradual adoption
- • Third-party vendor interactions
- • Asynchronous API workflows
Dispute-Aware Logging
If B rejects the interaction log, both versions are preserved. Dispute-aware trails can feed into reputation models and arbitration systems.
Off-Chain: Two Separate Logs
{ "claim": "task_completed", "signed_by": "0xA" }
{ "claim": "task_failed", "signed_by": "0xB" }
On-Chain Dispute Record:
{
"dispute_hashes": ["0xaaaaa...", "0xbbbbb..."],
"status": "disputed"
}
Ideal for:
- • Service delivery disputes and SLA violations
- • Fraud detection and investigation
- • Decentralized arbitration systems
- • Insurance claims and liability resolution

Built for Enterprise Needs
Our architecture supports the strict privacy, compliance, and performance needs of large enterprises and edge computing environments.
Private Deployments
Run on internal EVM chains or rollups (e.g., OP Stack) for internal agent registries, retaining full privacy and integrating with existing IAM/compliance systems.
Public Anchoring
Optionally anchor manifest hashes or reputation scores to public L2s (Base, Optimism) to enable trusted, verifiable interaction between internal and external agents.
Compliance-Conscious Architecture
Identro’s audit trail model is architected to align with enterprise compliance frameworks such as SOX and SOC 2.
