Key Points
Agent proves identity with a unique digital key; user must confirm each login alert
1Password injects the credentials, so the agent never holds them
Works with Claude Duet, OpenAI's Dots and ChatGPT Work, Grok Bot, Meta's Muse and Town agents
No pricing or regional availability disclosed
Axios reports US banks are starting to detect agentic activity in accounts; Chase says customers should not share logins
Why It Matters
Credential handoff is the biggest trust gap for consumer agents. A vault-brokered login is a practical pattern, though banks may still block the traffic.
