Names and identities for AI agents
Give every AI agent a persistent, verifiable ENS identity - ERC-8004 compliant, multi-chain, resolvable across web3. Named agents can be discovered, verified, paid, and audited.

AI agents need identity for the same reason businesses do: counterparties must know who they are dealing with before they transact. An ENS name gives an agent a readable, permanent identifier like agent.yourapp.eth, with records for its owner, its endpoint, its capabilities, and its wallet address. ERC-8004, the Trustless Agents standard, adds three onchain registries for identity, reputation, and validation. Namespace builds the naming and smart account infrastructure that makes agent identity usable in production.
Agents transact, and nobody can tell which one did
The identity layer agents need already exists. It just has not been pointed at them yet.
An agent with no identity is an address with no history.
When an agent calls another agent, there is nothing to check. No owner, no capabilities, no track record, no way to tell a legitimate service from an impersonator using a similar-looking address.
The industry still authenticates agents with shared secrets.
A February 2026 survey by Strata Identity and the Cloud Security Alliance found that only 23% of organizations had a formal agent identity management strategy, 45.6% were still using shared API keys for agent authentication, and only 21.9% treated agents as independent identity-bearing entities. Shared API keys do not survive contact with agents that hold funds.
Reputation does not travel and discovery does not exist.
An agent that has performed well on one platform arrives at the next one with nothing. Without a portable identifier, every reputation system is a silo, and every agent starts from zero forever. There is no directory. If your agent can do something useful, there is no canonical place for another agent to find that out and verify it.
Payments amplify all of the above.
Agents are starting to hold and move funds. The moment money is involved, 'which agent is this and who is responsible for it' stops being a design question and becomes a liability question.
How ENS and ERC-8004 fit together
Name the agent, write the records, register it - then any counterparty can verify before transacting.
Name the agent
Issue agent.yourapp.eth programmatically as you deploy - one API call per agent, in the same flow that creates its keys.
Write the records
Owner, endpoint, capabilities, wallet address, and a pointer to the ERC-8004 registration file.
Register in ERC-8004
Mint the identity token and point its URI at the registration file. Counterparties resolve the name, read the records, and check the registry before transacting.
What each layer provides
The standards behind agent identity
Agent identity on ENS is being standardized in the open.
Registry verification
A standard text record that attests an ENS name controls a specific agent registered onchain - in ERC-8004 or any other registry. Wallets and apps check the record and show a verified agent instead of trusting a claim.
agent-registration[registry][agentId]Agent text records
Standard records that describe an agent and how to reach it - MCP, A2A, or web endpoints - so one name is the discovery and connection point for an agent across chains. Merged and live in production.
agent-contextagent-endpoint[mcp]Typed metadata for ENS nodes
An ENS-sponsored standard in development for attaching structured, typed records - roles, categories, labels - directly to ENS nodes, so agent capabilities become machine-readable instead of freeform text.
typed records, schemas on IPFSTwo agents ask for $500. Which do you pay?
0x8c1f…a04b
No operator, no history, no way to tell it from an impostor. Any key can claim to be your trading agent, your support bot, your payment router.
Trust is a guess.
agent.yourapp.eth
Operator, addresses, metadata and service endpoints on a name anyone can resolve, registered under ERC-8004, persistent across key rotations.
Trust is a lookup.
Everything a counterparty needs to check
Multi-chain by default
One name resolves to the right address on the right chain, across 100+ chains. Payments to agents stop depending on pasted hex.
Operator, policy, provenance
Text records carry who runs the agent and under what rules, readable through standard ENS tooling everywhere.
Where to reach it
Service endpoints live on the name, so agents can discover and talk to each other without a proprietary registry in the middle.
Name agents as you deploy them
Issue a name with the same call that creates the agent's keys. Offchain issuance is gasless and free at any volume, and when you rotate keys or redeploy, you update the records - the name stays the same.

Why agent platforms choose Namespace
Namespace is the ENS DAO-backed service provider, and our ENS MCP server is listed in the official ENS documentation.
Build it yourself, or don't
The business case
Agent-to-agent discovery, verifiable delegation, portable reputation, and payment flows where the counterparty is checkable. For platforms issuing agents, a branded namespace makes every agent you deploy carry your name into every interaction it has.
- Agents other agents can discover and verify
- Context that travels across platforms
- Payment flows with checkable counterparties
- Your brand on every agent you deploy
Our pricing, plainly
If names are free for your agents, we charge nothing. We charge only on priced subnames and only earn when you do.
