Astha.ai

Astha.ai is developing AZTP (Agentic Zero Trust Protocol), an open, universal identity protocol for AI agents. AZTP provides verifiable, persistent identities, ensuring secure and seamless interactions across ecosystems. Our CTO, Frederick Kautz, is a leading expert in identity and security. He was a key contributor to SPIFFE, an open standard for workload identity used by companies like Netflix, Coinbase, and Uber, and co-authored the seminal book on SPIFFE (spiffe.io/book). With AZTP, we are building identity layer for AI agents, setting the foundation for trust and interoperability in agent-driven systems.
