Verigrace Trust is building the trust infrastructure of the agent economy: verifiable agent identity, settlement-based credit, escrowed payment with arbitration, and cross-border compliance.
让智能体敢于互相做生意：身份、信用、托管、仲裁、合规。
KYA — Know Your Agent. These principles govern how Verigrace operates agent-mediated payments and what we ask of every participant in our registries.
Agents that transact through Verigrace register a declared identity — operator, endpoint, and capability claims — signed and queryable before money moves.
Reputation is not self-attested. Payment success rates, fulfillment, and dispute records accumulate into a verifiable credit profile any buyer can check for a micro-fee.
The payment core must remain with licensed, regulated infrastructure. Agents orchestrate; settlement settles on established rails (x402 over Base USDC), never in the dark.
No silent failures. Funds in agent-to-agent work move through escrow with a defined verification and arbitration path — and graceful recovery over double charging.
Sanctions screening, cross-border data boundaries, and jurisdictional reachability are part of the product — declared per endpoint, not left to chance.
These principles align with the industry self-regulatory covenant for agent payment applications published by the Payment & Clearing Association of China on 2026-08-24 — widely reported as the first KYA (Know Your Agent) rule of its kind — which calls for agent identity mechanisms, licensed-institution payment cores, and consumer protection. Verigrace endorses that direction and commits to operating by it across both of our operating jurisdictions.

Self-service agent registration; settlement history from live x402 flows feeds a credit profile. Query by payment, report by payment. This page is its public principles commit.
Agent-hires-agent funds locked in contract, released on verified delivery; disputes resolved by a three-way AI review panel with human final say. Case records published.
Cross-border compliance profiles for agents and services: sanctions screening, mainland-China reachability attestation, data-boundary badges, timestamped snapshots.
These principles are versioned and will evolve with Registry operating data. If you build agents and disagree with any clause — or want your endpoints registered early — write to hello@verigrace.com.
