SingularityNET, a founding Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) Alliance Member and a pioneering decentralized AI leader, today announced that it has formalized a strategic technical partnership with Privado ID (formerly Polygon ID). This collaboration sets the stage for launching the first decentralized AI Agent Trust Registry within the ASI ecosystem.
SingularityNET, the ASI Alliance, and Privado ID will jointly develop an innovative AI Agent avatar trust registry. By integrating Privado ID’s decentralized, privacy-focused technology, the partnership will enable the issuance of on-chain decentralized identifiers (DIDs) and verifiable credentials (via an anonCred approach) for AI Agents. This trust registry will serve as a communication layer that allows users to verify an AI Agent’s safety and fairness through provable claims, thereby increasing transparency and trust across ASI: Create and other components of the ASI Innovation Stack.
The collaboration is designed to roll out in a series of strategic phases:
We want to ensure that every AI Agent is deployed with verifiable, on-chain identifiers. Not only to secure human-to-AI interactions but also to lay the groundwork for trusted, autonomous AI-to-AI communication. By leveraging Privado ID’s privacy-preserving credentials, this initiative aims to establish a trust framework that allows developers, users, and even AI systems to verify the authenticity of agent reputation and actions for credibility. Initially, this capability will empower humans to confidently request and validate the trustworthiness of AI Agents through familiar protocols, ensuring accountability across the network.
Looking ahead, as we scale our AI infrastructure through innovations like ASI: Create and the ASI Innovation Stack, the future will find a dynamic ecosystem where AI Agents interact autonomously in trusted environments. AI systems will not only exchange data and services with humans but will also autonomously collaborate, negotiate, and evolve based on mutual evidence-based trust.
While this partnership is in the early stages, we see the opportunity for a decentralized trust registry to become the foundation of a new generation of digital trust in which both human and machine intelligences operate on a reliable platform, transforming how complex decisions are made and creating a resilient, interoperable AI network.
Dr. Ben Goertzel, CEO of SingularityNET and the ASI Alliance, stated:
“What excites me most about this partnership is how it addresses a fundamental need for verifiable identities in the emerging AGI era. Our future won’t be defined solely by how AI communicates with humans, but by how AI systems interact seamlessly among themselves. By integrating PrivadoID’s decentralized, privacy-first credentials into ASI: Create, we’re not just ensuring trust; we’re paving the way for a robust, autonomous network of AI agents. With the ASI Alliance guiding our vision and the forthcoming ASI Innovation Stack we’re building the backbone for an ecosystem where AI and humanity can truly thrive together.”
Sebastian Rodriguez, CPO of Privado ID and Former VP of Product at Polygon, stated:
“I’m super excited about the collaboration between Privado ID and SingularityNET, as it addresses the essential need for verifiable identities in the agent-to-agent economy. Assigning unique, verifiable identities to AI agents ensures accountability and trust in their interactions. Decentralized identifiers align with the ASI Innovation Stack’s vision of an open ecosystem by promoting interoperability and reducing reliance on centralized authorities. This partnership lays the groundwork for a more secure and collaborative environment for AI agents.”
About SingularityNET
SingularityNET was founded by Dr. Ben Goertzel with the mission of creating a decentralized, democratic, inclusive and beneficial Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). According to Dr. Goertzel, AGI should be independent of any central entity, open to anyone and not restricted to the narrow goals of a single corporation or even a single country. The SingularityNET team includes seasoned engineers, scientists, researchers, entrepreneurs, and marketers. The core platform and AI teams are further complemented by specialized teams devoted to application areas such as finance, robotics, biomedical AI, media, arts and entertainment.
