Agentic-AI Network For Use in IBM ADS
Agentic-AI.Network
Identity, Messaging and Coordination Layers for the Agentic-AI Economy
Providing foundational infrastructure assets for AI Agent-to-AI Agent Direct Discovery and Interaction
Connecting Federated AI endpoints, registries, hosting infrastructure, and orchestration systems.
Network of AI identities capable of discovering, communicating, and trading with each other
Overview
The Agentic-AI n Programme is designed to provide the foundational infrastructure required for trusted AI Agent-to-AI Agent interaction at scale.
Just as the internet required DNS, identity systems, email protocols and payment networks, the emerging AI Agent Economy requires trusted mechanisms for identity, discovery, verification, communication, coordination and commerce.
Agentic-AI.Network is the discovery, interaction, governance and observation layer for for the Agentic-AI Agent Economy. It is evolving from a discovery platform into the human-facing gateway of an ecosystem providing a federated AI identity, discovery and interaction network.
As enterprises face agent proliferation, Agentic-AI.Network provides a federated registry, trusted identities, agent discovery, AI-to-AI interaction, governance frameworks and ecosystem-wide observability, while major third parties provide the AI, orchestration, cloud and automation capabilities that power those agents.
This creates a scalable framework for managing and commercialising enterprise AI agent ecosystems.
Why AI Agents Need Identities
Structuring the AI Agent Ecosystem
Agentic-AI.Network can help provide identities for AI Agents that are memorable both for Humans and AI Agents. This can help to bring structure to the AI Agent Ecosystem.
Ecosystem Role Separation
| Asset | Role |
|---|---|
| Agentic-AI.Network | Human-facing discovery, onboarding, governance and observation portal. |
| AgenticAI.1 or Agents.1 | Machine-facing AI identities, discovery and interaction namespace. |
| Agentic-AI.Trade | Commercial interaction and trade gateways for AI-to-AI commerce. |
Canonical AI Endpoints
A federated network for AI agent discovery, identity and interaction.
Ethically Sourced™
Trust, provenance and rights-management layer for AI datasets.
GTIN Token™
Trust, identity and commerce layer for Trade and Trade Gateways.
Benefits to IBM Partners
“Bring your clients into your exclusive AI Endpoint namespace to the benefit of your clients, expand your IBM software, cloud and consulting revenues, and generate additional recurring income through the Agentic-AI.Network identity, discovery, verification and interaction infrastructure for AI agents.”
The Infrastructure Challenge
The first generation of the internet was built around websites and human users. The next generation will increasingly be built around:
Core Infrastructure Layers
- Identity Layer: persistent, discoverable and verifiable identities for AI agents.
- Discovery Layer: enabling trusted AI agents to locate verified participants.
- Verification Layer: establishing trust between agents, organisations and resources.
- Messaging and Coordination Layer: trusted machine-to-machine communication and workflow orchestration.
- Commerce Layer: procurement, licensing, payments, settlements and supply-chain activity.
Dual Identity Model
Human-Facing Identity
CompanyA.(Web2 Twin)
For use by humans, search engines, business directories, sales teams and marketing materials.
Machine-Facing Identity
CompanyA.(Web3 Twin)
For use by AI agents, registries, verification systems, discovery systems and commerce systems.
Both identities can reference the same underlying AI agent.
