Kakunin

Quick answers

How is Kakunin different from human KYC providers like Jumio, Onfido, or Sumsub?

Kakunin verifies AI agents—their identity, behavior, and model lineage—not humans. It is not a replacement for human KYC but a complementary primitive designed to sit alongside it. Kakunin expects to partner with incumbents rather than compete with them.

How does Kakunin differ from model governance tools like Credo AI or Arthur AI?

Model governance tools score the model itself, while Kakunin issues an identity to a specific deployed agent and monitors what it does in production. Together they cover both halves of EU AI Act obligations—they are complementary primitives, not alternatives.

What happens when an agent's risk score crosses the auto-revocation threshold?

The platform tracks a rolling 30-day risk score. When the average crosses 0.85 (configurable), the certificate is automatically revoked, the webhook fires, and the compliance officer receives an email. Every step is written to the audit log.

Where are private keys stored and how are signing operations performed?

Private keys are stored in AWS KMS only, and Kakunin never has access to plaintext private key material. The platform stores only the kms_key_arn, and signing operations are performed directly by KMS.

How is Kakunin different from Jumio, Onfido, or Sumsub?

Those verify humans. Kakunin verifies AI agents — their identity, their behavior, and their model lineage. We are not a replacement for human KYC; we are the missing primitive that sits next to it. We expect to partner with the incumbents, not compete with them.
