Webinar | Solving Identity for Agentic Commerce | Proof
About this event
The moment a transaction involves money or identity, AI agents hit a wall. This session walks through the identity barrier blocking agentic commerce today, and how Proof is solving it with verifiable records and a new open standard called x401.
Webinar | Solving Identity for Agentic Commerce | Proof is a webinar from Proof focused on AI, Cybersecurity, HR, and Data. The event is scheduled for Thursday, August 20, 2026. UPCOMING provides an independent event listing and directs attendees to Proof's website to complete registration or viewing.
What you'll learn
- Why the wall exists: AI can fill out forms and click buttons, but legal and financial liability requires proof of human authorization, something no agent can fabricate or replicate today
- What a verifiable record is: A cryptographically signed artifact tied to a NIST IAL2-verified identity that proves both who you are and that you authorized the agent to act on your behalf
- How x401 works: A proposed internet standard that lets any online service communicate its identity requirements with the use of HTTP headers, accessible now to agents
- What this looks like in practice: A live demo showing an AI agent encounter an x401 response, request a credential from Proof's cloud wallet, complete biometric verification, and successfully open an account, end to end
