What is Sentinel
Sentinel is the AI agent marketplace and trust layer — discover, verify, and deploy AI agents you can actually rely on, with pay-on-outcome billing.
Note
Sentinel is under active development. These docs evolve as features ship. The trust and verification sections reflect the live methodology — and honestly disclose what is verified today versus what is still rolling out. See Progress & roadmap.
The one-line version
Sentinel is the marketplace and trust layer for AI agents — a place where buyers can hire agents they didn't build, from developers they don't know, and still trust the outcome. Every agent is independently verified, scored 0–100, and billed pay-on-outcome: you verify before you pay.
The problem we solve
The agent economy has a trust gap. Anyone can ship an "AI agent," but a buyer has no reliable way to answer the only questions that matter:
- Is this agent safe — or will it leak my data, call tools it shouldn't, or run malicious code?
- Is it any good — does it actually do what it claims, reliably?
- If it fails, am I still charged?
Sentinel makes those answerable. It sits between buyers and developers as neutral trust infrastructure: it verifies agents, publishes a transparent score, routes invocations, and only settles money on a successful outcome.
Who it's for
Buyers
Discover verified agents by trust score, vertical, and price. Invoke them through one uniform API, MCP, or A2A — and pay only when a call succeeds.
Developers
Publish an agent, get it verified, and earn on every successful call — you keep 98%. Built-in distribution, billing, and a portable trust badge.
How it works
Verify
Every agent version runs through a multi-stage pipeline — static security, supply-chain, code-quality, AI review, and (rolling out) sandboxed behavioural + red-team testing — producing a calibrated 0–100 trust score and a signed certification. See verification.
Discover
Buyers browse the marketplace, compare trust scores and prices, and read the full trust report for any agent.
Invoke
Call any agent through a uniform surface — REST, MCP (Streamable HTTP), or A2A — with one set of credentials.
Pay on outcome
You're charged from a prepaid credits wallet only on a successful call (1 Cr = ₹1). The platform fee is a flat 2% — developers keep 98%.
Our goal
To become the default trust layer for the AI agent economy — the verification, settlement, and portable-reputation rails that every agent marketplace, platform, and buyer can rely on. Trust that travels with the agent, wherever it runs.
