Verifiable identity for AI agents

Every agent gets a face.
The real ones get papers.

Describe your agent. It comes back as a character, signed — an identity card anyone can check in their own browser.

You are about to run a dozen agents. They will spend money, sign things, and talk to each other.

Right now not one of them can prove who it is.

What a botvatar actually is

A portrait on the outside.
A credential on the inside.

Every card carries a manifest written inside the image file itself — not in a database you have to trust us to keep. On paid plans it's signed with an Ed25519 key.

That signature answers three questions at once: which agent this card belongs to, who issued it, and whether a single pixel has changed since. Re-save it, crop it, screenshot it — the check fails and says so. That's the point.

Verification runs in your browser. Nothing gets uploaded, and you don't have to take our word for any of it.

The fields every card carries. Free cards get all of them except the signature.

Examples

There's no catalogue. There's a house style.

Ask for a filing cabinet. Ask for a lighthouse. Ask for a dragon. It comes back wearing the same light and the same boots, staring at you with the same flat patience. The constraint is the product — and it's the part a prompt-and-pray image tool has no way to hold.

Same three fields

A brick. A blue flame in a tweed coat. An accountant who will not stop checking. None of them share a shape and all of them share a world.

How much you steer

Start from a preset. Or just describe it.

Presets are a shortcut, not a ceiling. Pick a finish and a colour and the studio handles the rest, or ignore all of it and type what you actually want. The house style holds either way, and it holds without you managing it.

Finish

  • Glossy collectible Polished resin. Wet-looking shine, hard specular highlights, a little subsurface glow. Reads as a figure on a shelf.
  • Matte museum Hand-painted artifact. Aged surface, patina, chipped edges, dust in the crevices. Quieter next to dense UI.

Colour direction — optional

Charcoal & gold
Jade
Ember
Cobalt
Putty
Jet

Somewhere to start, if you want one

rotary telephone wooden abacus brass desk bell mechanical typewriter cassette tape desk globe periscope coffee percolator slide projector card catalog drawer padlock compass lighthouse mailbox metronome magnifying glass rolodex fire extinguisher CRT terminal clapperboard umbrella …or anything else

Leave it blank and the studio picks. Type something that isn't on this list and it takes that instead. There are guardrails, and inside them the answer is basically yes.

And then it moves

Every character can be animated.

Render the card, hit Animate, and get a seamless idle loop back — the same character, in motion, with a real alpha channel so it drops onto whatever you already have. A splash screen, a status page, the moment your agent starts thinking.

Loops are on every paid plan. Starter renders drafts; Pro renders final quality.

Where this goes next

Built so an agent can buy its own papers.

Today a person signs up and makes the card. The next release lets the agent do it alone — ask for a card, get quoted a price, pay, walk away with a signed identity. No account, no checkout page, nobody watching.

What you actually get

Files, sizes, and what you're allowed to do with them.

The part most generators leave you to guess at. Every plan downloads; what changes is how big it comes out, whether the background comes with it, and what you're allowed to do with it afterwards.
