Your customers are starting to deploy agentic AI on the infrastructure you sell them. The compute is yours. The identity layer underneath is up for grabs, and existing human-identity systems weren't built for agents.
Agentic AI deployments need cryptographic identity. The compute purchase is meaningless without it.
Building an agentic identity primitive is a 5-7 year cryptographic R&D project. You sell compute. Stay focused on what you do best.
Whoever bundles agentic identity into their cloud first owns the deeper relationship. Customers don't want a second invoice for plumbing they think comes with compute.
Every partner who deploys a HexaEight Marketplace VM is Verified by default. To reach Certified, every identity issued from your VMs must carry your own root domain. We verify it through a reconciliation audit.
Deploy a HexaEight Marketplace VM in your subscription. You're a Verified Partner from that moment forward. Operate however your business works: host customer-owned identities, resell raw licenses, do VPS-style identity slots.
Every identity issued from your HexaEight VMs must carry your own root domain (e.g., agent01.customer.yourbrand.com). We verify with a reconciliation audit. 100% compliance required.
You don't need to fit a label. But these five operating shapes cover most partners we see, and each one lands in a different tier.
You ship an agentic product into a specific industry like banking, healthcare, legal, or logistics. Customers install your product; HexaEight identity is a primitive inside it. Identities carry your root domain (agent01.customer.yourbrand.com), so every install attests to who built the product.
You operate a SaaS that issues identities programmatically on every tenant signup, every workflow, every agent. Your customers buy the platform; they never have to think about identity. Each tenant's identity carries your root domain.
You integrate HexaEight identity into enterprise customer stacks (CRM, ERP, internal agent platforms). The integration is the product. You provision identities under your own domain and own the operational lifecycle for every customer.
You serve a specific market with local currency, local invoicing, and local support hotline. You can either wrap your own brand on each identity (Certified path) or sell raw HexaEight licenses to customers who bring their own domains (Verified path). Both are valid; the tier depends on which structural pattern you operate.
You deploy a Marketplace VM and rent identity slots to end customers. Each customer brings their own domain. Legitimate business. Verified Partner. Not eligible for Certified because the structural test (partner-domain on every identity) is not met.
We sell per-identity, per-core licenses at flat monthly pricing. Anyone running a Mode 2 Marketplace VM can host hundreds of identities and resell them at any price, including below our direct $72 rate. AWS, Azure, and GCP are partners, not competitors.
HexaEight will not undercut its partners. Our own reseller (fastagents.net) subsidizes identities for small customers. We deliberately compete with ourselves on resale. We sell the primitive. You make the money on top.
We'll be direct about the awkward part. HexaEight currently offers free user authentication via our Authenticator app, which competes with what traditional IdPs sell. If we go viral, that revenue line bends down for everyone in the human-SSO market.
Here's the other side. The next decade of identity isn't humans logging in — it's agents authenticating on their owner's behalf, at machine speed, with cryptographic identity. Most IdPs don't have a real product story for this yet. HexaEight's bridge architecture and Dead Drop Encryption are exactly the primitive that fits where agent identity is going. That gap is where we'd rather partner than compete.
Bundle HexaEight as your agent-identity SKU. White-label the bridges. Use your enterprise sales motion to sell licenses your customers already need. Once our Browser SDK ships, embed HexaEight-powered widgets in your dashboard. We don't care if you're Okta-sized or a 5-person startup — every identity provider that wants this path is welcome here. Every rival is a partner if it means we both win.
Tell us what you're building, what cloud you operate in, and roughly how many identities you expect. We'll walk you through deployment options and the path to Certified.
