Inside the Agentic Web: Why Your Site Needs Per-Request Identity
Half your traffic is no longer human. Crawlers summarize you, shopping agents check out for users, and research bots fan out across your archive — and your access control still assumes a person behind every request.
The fix isn't another CAPTCHA. It's identity. Every agent worth serving is run by an operator that can hold a key — OpenAI, Google, Anthropic — and act under a delegation from a real human principal. AIdenID turns that into a decision you can prove.
A verified, in-scope Googlebot gets the full body. A commercial agent with no delegation gets a price quote. A burst gets throttled. An unknown scraper gets the teaser and nothing more — because the server never serialized the rest.
