What is Signet for AI agents?

Signet gives agents cryptographic identities and signed receipts for every action, creating tamper-proof audit trails.

Why don't AI agents have signatures yet?

Trending projects rebuilt workflows and teams but skipped proof layers—humans take that for granted.

Will Signet stop rogue AI agent spending?

It provides evidence chains and scoped delegations, but pair it with policy checks to actually block bad spends.

Do enterprises need AI agent signatures now?

Yes, or risk unprovable incidents in multi-agent pipelines.
