Like Owning HTTPS in 1995— for the AI Agent Economy
Built on SMTP and DNS, UniKey is the patented universal trust layer for AI agent-to-agent transactions.
Why It Matters
AI agents will soon transact on behalf of billions of humans and enterprises.
Without a universal trust layer, the Internet will fragment into silos controlled by Apple, Google, and Microsoft.
UniKey provides the missing piece:
A cryptographic trust layer that makes agents interoperable across platforms, devices, and ecosystems.
Zero-trust security, engineered
to eliminate spoofing, phishing,
and man-in-the-middle attacks.
SMTP for authentication,
HTTPS for transactions — lightweight, universal, and cryptographic.
Just as HTTPS unlocked secure web commerce, UniKey unlocks secure AI agent transactions — at global scale.
The Asset
What began as a breakthrough in identity and payments has evolved into the trust layer for AI agents.
100+ patents filed globally (U.S., EU, Asia)
15 years of R&D in cryptography, identity, and payments
Evaluated with experts from Sandia and Los Alamos National Laboratories
Live today: powering Snowball Fundraising and verifier-tested across 100+ websites
Founder with two prior successful exits, including the first password-free information management system sold to a Fortune 500 Silicon Valley company
AI Agents as First-Class Identities
UniKey elevates AI agents to first-class citizens of the Internet.
Agents hold their own cryptographic identities.
Programmatic and send-only:
no inbox, no phishing.
Secure by design, purpose-built for agent-to-agent authentication and transactions.
This vision transforms UniKey from an identity/payment innovation into the trust fabric of the AI agent economy.
