Granular access & audit trails for business-critical tasksAutonomous AI AgentsGrant each autonomous agent exactly the permissions it needs—verifiable, revocable, and auditable.
Why This MattersAI agents are moving from prototypes to production. When they operate under unrestricted API keys, a single mistake can expose sensitive data or incur substantial costs. Organisations must know **who** is acting, **what** they are authorised to access, and **what** they have done.**Empeiria supplies the missing trust layer**: verifiable, revocable credentials that accompany every request, keeping interactions secure and fully traceable.

Drivers for change

Traditional API keys provide all‑or‑nothing access.
Most stacks lack a rapid, reliable way to adjust or withdraw permissions once an agent is live.
New regulations (AI Act, Digital Product Passport, sector directives) require cryptographic evidence for each action.

With Empeiria, agents can operate under their own identities while you remain in control.

The Fix in 30 Seconds
number
1. Decentralised Identifier (DID)Each agent receives a unique cryptographic ID.
number
2. Delegation CredentialA verifiable credential defines scope, limits, and expiry.
number
3. Continuous VerificationEvery call is checked by our Verifier microservice and rejected immediately if the credential has been revoked.

Flagship Use Case – Delegated Permissions
Scenario

A trading co‑pilot may place orders but must never move cash.

1. Grant

Alice issues a credential: `{ "action": "buy_btc", "limit": "10 000 EUR/day", "expires": "2025‑06‑04" }` via the Empeiria dashboard.

2. Act

The agent attaches this credential to each trade request.

3. Verify

The exchange validates the signature and policy in under 100 ms.

4. Revoke

Alice revokes the credential; further trades are blocked instantly.

Outcome

Fine‑grained control and a tamper‑proof audit trail.

Additional Use Cases

Sub‑delegation for Micro‑Agents

A primary agent can issue a narrower credential to a helper agent, limiting it to a single function while shielding other resources.

Verifiable Interaction Receipt

Agents can seal each task or conversation with a signed hash, creating an immutable receipt without exposing the full content.

Proof of Reputation

A portable credential summarises an agent’s past task volume, success rate, or verified reviews, enabling instant trust on new platforms.

IoT / Edge Authentication

Physical devices identify themselves with a DID and present a scoped credential before triggering automated workflows.

Benefits
Business
  • • Reduced Risk ExposureFine‑grained credentials cap damage from faulty or compromised agents.
  • • Agent‑as‑a‑ServiceUsage‑metered credentials enable pay‑per‑task or tiered billing models.
  • • Partner Ecosystem GrowthExternal agents integrate safely, expanding your platform without exposing core systems.
  • • Lower OverheadAutomated verification replaces manual reviews and custom integrations.
Technical
  • • DevelopersDrop‑in REST and SDKs for Node, Python, Go; reach a verified request in under 30 minutes.
  • • Security & ComplianceCryptographic audit trail plus one‑click revocation, aligned with AI Act and sector regulations.
  • • ArchitectureRuns alongside existing OAuth keys; no rip‑and‑replace migration.
Get Started

1. Create an agent wallet in the dashboard to obtain its DID.

2. Issue a Delegation Credential with limits and expiry.

3. Use the sample API to observe live verification.

FAQ
Quuestion
How is this better than OAuth?
Answer
OAuth tokens grant broad access. Empeiria credentials are signed, scoped, and portable across ecosystems—and they can run alongside your current OAuth flow, letting you migrate permissions incrementally.
Quuestion
What happens if an agent misbehaves?
Answer
Revoke its credential; subsequent requests are blocked within seconds.
Quuestion
Do I need to understand cryptography?
Answer
No. The SDK exposes intuitive JSON APIs; cryptographic operations are handled internally.
Quuestion
Can I integrate with my existing stack?
Answer
Yes. Our REST API exposes the full feature set. Use the Node.js SDK or call the endpoints from any language. Agents can also connect via our MCP servers, and frameworks like LangChain integrate out‑of‑the‑box.
Quuestion
How fast is revocation?
Answer
Typically under one second, anchored on the Empe Blockchain.
