The identity layer for AI agents

Every Website Has DNS.
Every AI Agent Needs ANS.

Agent Naming Service — register, verify, certify, and transfer AI agent ownership. The DNS + SSL equivalent for the agent economy.

Before you trust an AI agent with your email, database, or money — check who owns it.
