Trust Stamp (NASDAQ:IDAI), a provider of AI-powered trust, identity and security solutions, has received a provisional patent covering an authorization product for transactions initiated by AI agents. The patent was issued on November 9, 2026, and the company reported it on November 11. The product is designed to confirm that the account holder consents to each transaction, a requirement the company links to the growth of agent-driven activity. Agentic AI systems are increasingly able to initiate actions such as payments and account changes, which raises questions about how a customer's consent is verified. Authentication methods designed for human logins do not always capture whether a person approved an action that an automated system started.

What the Patent Covers

The provisional patent, numbered 64/195,409, sits alongside the company's existing issued patents. Together they protect a product that ensures what the company calls Knowing Consent for agent-initiated transactions.

The company said the product uses proprietary processes protected by existing patents combined with the new filing, and that it is ready for immediate use.

Provisional patents establish an early filing date for an invention and allow a company to claim priority while it prepares a full application. The provisional status means the claims remain subject to examination, and the company's existing issued patents provide the foundation for the new filing.

How the Authorization Flow Works

The system distinguishes between an AI agent that initiates a request and the human account owner, who must approve each transaction. Authorization can be started by the agent or by the financial institution.

According to the company, the process is fast, low-friction and biometric-backed. It can be added through its Orchestration Layer or through a single API call, and implementation can take days within an institution's existing access and transaction policies.

Biometric backing refers to the use of a person's biometric data to confirm identity at the point of approval. The method is designed to link a specific individual to the consent step, rather than relying on a password or device that could be used by someone else.

Bank Integrations and Limits of the Claims

Trust Stamp said more than 100 banks are already integrated into its Orchestration Layer. The company also contrasted its product with agent-identity concepts discussed in the market, describing its own tool as available now rather than proposed.

The ready-to-use claim is a company statement. The update does not provide revenue, pricing or the number of banks actively using the authorization feature.

An Orchestration Layer connects a bank's systems with the authentication services it uses, allowing the bank to apply a common set of controls. Trust Stamp says its existing integrations give it a base from which to offer the new authorization step.

Competitive and Market Context

The company contrasted its product with agent-identity concepts that have been discussed publicly, which focus on establishing who or what an AI agent is. Trust Stamp's approach is aimed at the moment of transaction approval, which it argues is a separate requirement.

The market for agent-related security tools is still developing, and standards for how consent should be recorded are not fixed. The update does not describe any industry standard the product follows or any regulatory approval it requires.

Final Word

Trust Stamp's provisional patent expands its intellectual property around agent-initiated authorization, with a product the company says can be deployed within days. The filing is provisional, and the update does not indicate Revenue from the feature or how many institutions will adopt it. Subsequent filings and bank deployment figures will show whether the patent leads to commercial uptake. The patent and the integration base together set out the company's position for the authorization product.
