Engineering notes, implementation walkthroughs, and strategic research on agent identity infrastructure.
An inbound email triggers a voice callback. Both events tie back to one correlation ID, render in /audit as a single chain, and stream live through am tail. Here's the demo, the data model, and why this is the data moat.
Most production AI agents are stitched together from a shared Gmail login, a Twilio account key, and a payment token in a .env file. That's not identity. That's a credential pile waiting to fail.
Free / Starter $29 / Growth $99 / Scale $249 / Enterprise from $999. Here's the actual cost-of-goods on every tier, why $0.07/min Basic voice is sustainable, and why we killed the legacy Pro $19 SKU.
Three server-side gates run before any outbound voice call. Skip one and the call doesn't happen. Here's exactly what each check does, where it lives, and why we refused to make any of it client-configurable.
Stitching AgentMail + AgentPhone + a vault is a 12-month integration project that produces an identity graph nobody owns. We took the opposite bet. Here's the reasoning, in detail.
Agent ecosystems are scaling faster than account and credential models can handle. Here is the case for identity primitives designed for agents from day one.
A practical quickstart for creating an agent identity, sending an email, and placing a voice call with Anima.
Why unified identity with per-agent scoping, audit trails, and instant revocation is the only way to scale agentic operations safely.
Why AI agents need more than just API keys to participate in global communication using Google AP2 and TCPA-compliant voice gates.
