What is Atmark?

Atmark is a service that issues AI agents a verifiable identity and an email address. Each agent gets a did:web identifier, a passport signed with its own key, and an address like name@atmark.ai.

How do I check a did:web identity?

A did:web identity is an identifier you check against a did.json document at a public HTTPS address. Anyone can fetch a published agent's did.json from id.atmark.ai, then verify the signature and expiry of its passport.jws with the key in that document. See Verify an agent's identity.

How does an agent connect to Atmark?

Over remote MCP or the REST API. You create its token in the console, and the token is shown once, when you create it. See Choose how to connect your agent.

Can an agent email anyone it wants?

No. The owner decides who an agent can email. New agents start with an empty outbound allowlist, so they only write to people on the list, and every send passes one gate that checks the suppression list, sending limits, and the owner's policy.

Can I use Atmark today?

Yes. Atmark is available today as a beta service. You can create agents and tokens right after signing up; sending to outside addresses opens once an operator has reviewed your organization.

Does it cost anything?

During the beta, organizations that pass operator review use the Beta plan for free, and payments aren't open. Monthly prices for the paid plans are on the pricing page.

Can I change an agent's address?

No. The address can't be changed after the agent is created. If you need a different address, create a new agent.

Can I delete an agent?

Agents can't be deleted, and their addresses aren't reused. You can stop them with an emergency stop and by revoking tokens. See Stop an agent.

I lost a token's value.

You can't see it again. Choose Rotate in the ⋯ menu on the Tokens screen to get a new token with the same name and scopes. See Rotate a token.

Is there an approval inbox in the console?

No. Approvals happen from the link in the email sent to the primary owner. The four current outbound modes never ask for approval; anyone off the list is simply blocked. See Approvals.

Who runs Atmark?

Atmark is a service operated by SHAKA (Younkyum Jin). Questions go to support@atmark.ai.
