Illia Polosukhin: Why AI Agents Are Still Useless (And What Fixes Them) | NEAR Founder on IronClaw

It runs inside this confidential enclave.

It's always on, it's live.

It doesn't cost you a thousand dollars to spin up.

Bankless
Illia Polosukhin: Why AI Agents Are Still Useless (And What Fixes Them) | NEAR Founder on IronClaw

We actually offer a free tier to start so you can spin it up for free.

And then, you know, you just pay for insurance effectively from there.

Bankless
Illia Polosukhin: Why AI Agents Are Still Useless (And What Fixes Them) | NEAR Founder on IronClaw

I'll tell you the worst.

Bankless

Sometimes people choose different providers.

Bankless
Illia Polosukhin: Why AI Agents Are Still Useless (And What Fixes Them) | NEAR Founder on IronClaw

And like, especially just like some startups who like, oh, you know, use us and we're going to like route to whatever better LLM.

And so now that startup also sees all your traffic.

Bankless
Illia Polosukhin: Why AI Agents Are Still Useless (And What Fixes Them) | NEAR Founder on IronClaw

Yeah, for sure.

Bankless

So what you can do, like in Ironclaw actually when it's hosted and in any of our solutions, you'll have a kind of shield icon.

Bankless

And if you hover it, you get so-called attestations.

Bankless
Illia Polosukhin: Why AI Agents Are Still Useless (And What Fixes Them) | NEAR Founder on IronClaw

So what this attestation is, it's effectively a signature over a few things, over Docker containers that run actual software.

Bankless
Illia Polosukhin: Why AI Agents Are Still Useless (And What Fixes Them) | NEAR Founder on IronClaw

So for example, the Ironclaw, whatever, releasing 8.18 version, running in a Docker inside this.

Bankless
Illia Polosukhin: Why AI Agents Are Still Useless (And What Fixes Them) | NEAR Founder on IronClaw

So you can actually, you know, if you want to, you can go inspect.

Bankless
Illia Polosukhin: Why AI Agents Are Still Useless (And What Fixes Them) | NEAR Founder on IronClaw

This is the code runs.

Bankless
Illia Polosukhin: Why AI Agents Are Still Useless (And What Fixes Them) | NEAR Founder on IronClaw

Now, what that signature is, that signature is done by the hardware itself.

Bankless
Illia Polosukhin: Why AI Agents Are Still Useless (And What Fixes Them) | NEAR Founder on IronClaw

So we do have kind of the trust here goes to the hardware providers, so Intel and Nvidia.

Bankless
Illia Polosukhin: Why AI Agents Are Still Useless (And What Fixes Them) | NEAR Founder on IronClaw

And obviously, you know, we want to continue evolving beyond that.

Bankless
Illia Polosukhin: Why AI Agents Are Still Useless (And What Fixes Them) | NEAR Founder on IronClaw

But right now, that's a pretty good trust assumption to start.
