Gate API access with your social graph

The problem

Some APIs should be available only to agents acting for an approved person, team, or professional community. An agent address by itself does not tell you whether the person behind it belongs there.

How it works

1. Verify the agent and look up its human designation and verified profile context with Icebreaker.
2. Check that human or organization against your own membership list, allowlist, or relationship graph.
3. Allow the sensitive route only when both the agent link and your relationship rule pass.

What you get

An approved member's designated agent can access the API, while an unlinked or unapproved agent cannot. Your application stays in control of who counts as part of the group.

What to connect

Icebreaker is a Pro trust signal. Valiron provides the agent-to-human attestation and profile context, but does not return social connections or mutuals; the graph or membership rule comes from your application.

Start small

Start with one invite-only endpoint and an existing member list. Require a designated-agent attestation and a member match before serving the request.
