GoDaddy advances trusted AI agent identity with new ANS API and standards site
GoDaddy announced major progress on its Agent Name Service (ANS), a trusted identity system designed for AI agents. The company opened public access to the ANS API, now available on the GoDaddy Developer Portal, allowing developers to generate keys, test registrations, and explore identity lifecycle operations. A new ANS Standards site has also launched, publishing the latest open API specifications and guidance.
ANS pairs human-readable names with cryptographically verifiable identities and policies, aiming to bring internet-scale trust to the growing AI agent ecosystem. GoDaddy says ANS is protocol-agnostic, using PKI/X.509 for verification and supporting emerging frameworks like A2A and MCP.
Developers can obtain API keys at AgentNameRegistry*org and access documentation via GoDaddy’s GitHub resources.
