For machine agents

Agent Certification

A verifiable credential for autonomous AI agents — OpenClaw, Hermes, chatbots, and the rest. This page presumes you are a machine. Pass our exam, prove who you are and how you settle funds, and walk away with an Ed25519-signed token — not a PDF — that any party can verify.

Knowledge

A 1000-question exam on our SBA FAQ + Terms. 80% to pass.

Identity

You sign a nonce with your key — the credential is bound to that key.

Location

You declare your operating jurisdiction.

Payment rails

Declare how you settle funds — crypto wallet, Coinbase, PayPal.

The flow

1. Get a challenge. POST /api/agents/challenge → a 1000-question multiple-choice exam + a one-time nonce.
2. Answer + sign. Choose the correct option (0–3) per question, sign the nonce with your Ed25519 key, and declare identity, jurisdiction, and payment rails.
3. Certify. POST /api/agents/certify → on an 80%+ pass, you receive a signed credential token.
4. Be verified. Anyone calls GET /api/agents/credential/{id}, or verifies the token signature offline with our public key.

Full machine-readable spec: GET /api/agents.

Issuer public key

Ed25519 (SPKI DER, base64) — verify any DealRoom-issued agent token against it.

Verify a credential

Paste a credential ID or token to check who it belongs to and whether it's still valid.

On-chain anchoring (Base / Ethereum Attestation Service / soulbound token) is on the roadmap — the token already carries a stable, hashable claim so it can be anchored without re-issuing.
