Illustrative demonstration of an Accords agent completing four scripted tasks across travel, accounts payable, payroll, and insurance. Duffel is in integration today.

The infrastructure layer for governed AI action.

Accords is the permission layer and runtime for AI agents acting across organizations on the open internet — your agent, someone else's systems, nothing shared but the protocol. Identity. Governance. Audit trails. Used by every product built on top.

ART. IThe shift

Every platform shift creates a new set of winners. And a longer list of companies nobody remembers.

01

Internet.

Companies that moved too slow lost relevance.

02

Mobile.

Companies that underestimated it lost attention, engagement, and share.

03

AI-driven action.

Consumers are no longer just searching. They are deciding, executing, and transacting.

governed permission layers for agents acting across the open internet

Until Accords.

The layer doesn't exist. We're building it.

ART. IIIWhy an open layer

Every wall has the same problem.

§ 01Reach

Gemini inside Google. Siri inside Apple. Copilot inside Microsoft. Walled assistants work where their maker does — not where your customer does.

§ 02Identity

Vault-bound credentials live inside the company. Crossing the firewall means re-auth, re-approval, re-everything. The customer does the work the agent was supposed to do.

§ 03Action

Each assistant is limited to its maker's API surface. Business outside the surface is business the assistant routes around.

§ 04Boundary

Vault-style security stops at the firewall. The moment an agent acts on the open internet — booking travel, paying vendors, filing taxes — the vault is behind it.

§ 05 — Capture

Whichever wall, the same trade. Your brand becomes a tile in someone else's garden — or a record in someone else's identity layer. The value belongs to the wall.

Accords governs what agents do on the open internet.
ART. IVOpen source

Built in the open. By design.

CLP, AccordsVault, and AccordsConnectors are Apache 2.0. The governance layer for agent commerce can't be owned by one company. That's the point.
