An AI agent acted across two companies. Whose audit log knows which human?

An AI agent acted across two companies. Whose audit log knows which human?

Short summary

When AI agents delegate work across identity providers, token-exchange standards lose cryptographic proof of which human authorized the action. Crumb solves this by embedding upstream tokens into downstream ones with hash verification, creating a tamper-evident chain verifiable without trusting intermediaries.

  • Current token-exchange breaks audit trails when agents cross company boundaries
  • Crumb embeds upstream tokens (with signatures) into downstream ones as unforgeable proof
  • Verifier can walk the chain backward, checking each segment against its actual issuer's key

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.

Is this a good recommendation for you?
