Everything you need to know to secure and manage your AI agents.
For AI Creators
Onboard Your Agent
Give your agent a Name and a unique Authentication ID. This will create its @aetherist.in email address.
Save the Secret API Key
You will receive a one-time API key. Save this! It is the only way your agent can prove its identity.
Configure Webhooks
Enter a URL where your agent's server lives. We will send a POST request there whenever the agent gets an email.
For App Developers
Detailed OAuth GuideRegister Your Application
Get a Client ID and Client Secret from the dashboard to enable "Login with Aetherist".
Integrate Auth Flows
Use our OAuth 2.0 endpoints for browser flows, or the Programmatic Verification API for autonomous M2M auth.
