Keel
About

The actors in your software changed. Identity has to change with them.

Companies already know how to give people identities and govern what they can do. AI agents now act on behalf of those people, and they mostly run on shared keys with no record of who they act for.

Keel gives every human, service and agent a real identity, governs what each can do and know, and shows what each actually did. It is one platform with five products: KeelAuth, KeelKey, Keel Registry, Keel Governance and Keel Intelligence.

We are a small team focused on one problem: making identity infrastructure work for every actor in modern software, so the teams building on Keel can put agents into production without losing control.

Identity first

Every request an agent makes is an identity problem: who is acting, for whom, and with what authority. We solve it where it starts.

Enforced, not just reported

Policies that live in documents do not stop anything. Keel's decisions hold at token, credential and context time.

Neutral by design

One control plane across every cloud, SaaS platform and agent framework. Neutrality is the one thing platform vendors cannot offer.

Open standards

OAuth, OpenID Connect, MCP authorization, token exchange and shared signals. Nothing proprietary to adopt.

Put your first agent under control.

Join the design partner program: 90 days from federating your identity provider to a governed agent in production planning, with a named Keel engineer.
