Zero-knowledge execution
layer for autonomous agents.
The ultimate cryptographic firewall for autonomous agents. We intercept every on-chain intent, verify it against your rules, shield sensitive data with zero-knowledge proofs, and authorize or block settlement — before anything is irreversible.
The Problem
AI agents are the future of DeFi. Unprotected execution is not.
Autonomous agents will dominate on-chain activity — but executing irreversible actions with zero safeguards is a disaster waiting to happen. You wouldn't let a stranger access your bank account without rules. Why let an agent do it?
Unrestricted wallet access
Handing a private key to an autonomous agent is like giving a stranger your bank account — with no rules, no limits, no audit trail.
Irreversible DeFi execution
AI agents can swap, bridge, and settle on-chain in milliseconds. One misaligned intent becomes a permanent, unrecoverable loss.
Zero safeguards today
MEV bots, malicious contracts, and strategy leakage expose agent logic the moment a transaction hits the public mempool.
The Solution
The ultimate security layer for autonomous agents.
ZK-Permit is the privacy-first infrastructure that acts as your trustless checkpoint. Before any AI agent executes an irreversible DeFi transaction, we intercept the action, verify it against your rules, shield sensitive data with zero-knowledge proofs, and authorize or block settlement.
Think of it as a blackbox firewall between your agent and the blockchain — embedded operational intelligence with institutional-grade control.
Intercept
Cryptographic firewall
Every agent transaction passes through ZK-Permit before it reaches the chain. Nothing executes without clearance.
Control
Risk intelligence & policy
Validate intentions against user-defined rules — spend limits, allowlists, time windows, escalation paths. Allow, hold, or block.
Privacy
Zero-knowledge shield
Mask sensitive strategy data from MEV bots and adversaries. Prove compliance without exposing the underlying logic.
Settlement
Authorized execution
Only policy-compliant actions broadcast to Base. Verifiable settlement, irreversible only when you intend it.
ZK-Permit sits at the intersection of the narratives driving the next wave of crypto infrastructure — built for signal, designed for scale.
Core Infrastructure
Embedded Operational Intelligence.
Privacy-first infrastructure for the AI era — the ultimate checkpoint to allow, hold, or block agent actions before settlement.
Privacy-First Settlement
Mask agent strategies from MEV bots using zero-knowledge proofs. Strategies stay private, settlements stay verifiable.
Granular Agent Control
Set strict limits. Allow, hold, or block actions before they hit the mempool — fully programmable policy enforcement.
ZK-Shielded Environment
Agent intentions are verified in a confidential layer. Prove compliance without leaking alpha to the public mempool.
Risk Intelligence
Embedded operational intelligence scores every intent against your risk profile — wallets, protocols, amounts, and timing.
x402 Powered
Built for the AI era with native x402 support — seamless, secure machine-to-machine payments at the protocol level.
Base-Native Execution
Low-latency settlement on Base. Final authority before irreversible on-chain execution, optimized for agent throughput.
Pipeline
The Checkpoint.
Data flows in, gets intercepted, encrypted, and policy-checked — then only authorized settlements reach the chain.
Agent submits intent
An autonomous agent signs a transaction request — swap, bridge, pay, or settle on Base.
ZK-Permit intercepts
The cryptographic firewall catches the action before the mempool. No silent execution.
Verify & shield
Policies are validated, risk scored, and a ZK-proof generated. Sensitive strategy data stays private.
Authorize or block
Compliant actions are cleared for settlement. Violations are held or rejected — your rules, enforced.
Technical Vision
True operational intelligence requires privacy.
By combining zero-knowledge proofs with x402 payment rails, ZK-Permit ensures agent intentions are verified in a shielded environment — the final authority before your AI touches the chain.
ZK-proofs for agent intentions
Verify that an agent's action complies with policy without revealing the underlying strategy to MEV bots or malicious actors.
x402 machine payments
Native support for the x402 framework — seamless, secure machine-to-machine payments at the protocol level for the AI era.
The code is law
Programmable enforcement replaces trust. Your rules are cryptographically binding — allow, block, or escalate before any irreversible step.
