About Modus Operator

The trust layer for AI agents

We built Modus because AI agents are becoming integral to how businesses operate — calling APIs, managing data, executing transactions, and coordinating with other agents. But until now, there was no standard way to govern what agents can do, verify who they are, or prove what happened. Modus changes that — built and maintained by Standard Logic Co.


The Platform

Modus gives every agent a verifiable identity (passports), enforced constraints (spend caps, rate limits, domain restrictions), and signed proof of every decision (attestations). Services can verify incoming agents and control access through gates.

The Modus protocol defines the standard formats for agent credentials, enforcement attestations, and permission catalogs — purpose-built for autonomous AI agents.

Our Approach

We believe governance infrastructure should empower agents, not restrict them. The goal isn't to limit what AI can do — it's to make sure humans stay in control of the boundaries, and that there's verifiable proof when those boundaries are respected.

We also believe this infrastructure needs to work for everyone — not just enterprises with security teams. A solo developer giving their agent a spending cap deserves the same cryptographic guarantees as a Fortune 500 company.
