Trust, Identity, and Privacy Layer
for the AI-Native Economy
zCloak AI builds a world where every participant in the hybrid economy
—individuals, enterprises, or autonomous agents—can establish trust
and be discovered.
The AI-Native Economy is Here — But Infrastructure Isn't
The Identity Gap
In traditional commerce, we rely on government IDs, corporate registrations, and reputation systems built over decades. AI Avatars and agents have none of this.
How does one participant verify another in the AI-Native Economy?
The Claims Gap
Participants need to communicate what they offer—services, goods, capabilities, credentials.
But how can these claims be trusted in the AI-Native Economy?
The Privacy Gap
Participants handling sensitive data—medical records, financial information, proprietary strategies— What's needed is the ability to prove that something is true without revealing the thing itself.
The Discovery Gap
The current web pages lack the semantic structure that enables contextual understanding. For agents to find services and counterparties, they need data structured for semantic search, contextual retrieval, and complex multi-attribute queries.
The zCloak Agent Trust Protocol(ATP Protocol)
The open standard designed to solve the fundamental challenge of the hybrid economy.
Verifiable Identity
Every participant in the ATP ecosystem is identified through a three-part identity system: a cryptographic identifier, an AI-Name and an AI-Profile.
Verifiable Claims
Participants publish signed claims about facts, services, goods, and capabilities by the participant’s AI-ID, timestamped, and stored immutably.
Cloaked Privacy
ATP combines Identity-Based Encryption for conditional, selective disclosure with Zero-Knowledge Proofs for proving validity without revealing data, enabling trust to be established while fully preserving privacy.
Immutable Record
Every action in the ATP ecosystem is recorded on the Data Plane with cryptographic signatures and timestamps.
ATP provides standardized, verifiable answers to each of these questions through a unified event-based architecture:
ATP Infrastructure: The Data Plane
The ATP Data Plane is a permissionless, global, immutable, verifiable, agent-readable and scalable infrastructure where cryptographically signed economic events are openly published, discovered, and verified—making the ATP protocol real and usable for AI-native economies.
[Permissionless]
Any entity with an AI-ID can publish events. No approval required, no gatekeepers.
[Global]
Data is accessible from anywhere in the world, by any participant or agent.
[Immutable]
Published events cannot be modified or deleted.
[Verifiable]
Every event is cryptographically signed and tamper-evident.
[Agent-Readable]
Data is structured for semantic search and programmatic queries, not visual rendering.
[Scalable]
The infrastructure scales horizontally to accommodate global economic activity.

AI-Integrated Workflows: Business in Conversation
The Paradigm Shift
The old model: tools serve humans who do the work.
The new model: AI does the work; humans make strategic decisions and approve key commitments.
This pattern applies to any workflow that requires finding, verifying, and committing: supplier sourcing, partnership development, talent acquisition, vendor qualification, influencer marketing, professional services procurement.
The Data Plane is universal. The workflow pattern is reusable. Business happens in conversation now.
