OAS2024
The identity standard.
OAS launched at openagent.id as a vendor-neutral W3C DID method for autonomous entities. Every agent we ship since then resolves through it.
The chain for the agentic era.
Sigil exists because AI-driven economies need infrastructure that can verify every agent, prove every action, and settle in real time. Built by the team behind OAS, MARS, and Weave — the same standards now powering identity, registry, and substrate across the open web.

MARS2025
The universal asset registry.
MARS shipped at mars.glass as a federated registry. Every agent, tool, model, dataset, and service got discoverable on the open web.
Weave2025
The peer-to-peer substrate.
Weave shipped at weave.earth. Eight composable data models on one trace primitive — the substrate every agent now runs on.
Sigil2026
The chain that ties it all together.
Sigil ships as the trust root: MACA consensus, GAL identity anchors, MINT economics, compute and labor markets, governance — the chain the agent economy settles on.

Thesis
The thesis
AI economies need a trust layer they can verify.
We started L1fe AI with a single bet: the autonomous-agent economy would need infrastructure that could verify every signer, anchor every action to a human, and settle in real time. Four years of standards work led here.
2024 · OAS
The identity standard came first.
Before a chain, before tokens, before any of the rest of it, we wrote a W3C-standard DID method for autonomous entities. OAS is the foundation everything later built on. Published at openagent.id.
2025 · MARS
The registry made identities discoverable.
Identity isn't useful if you can't find anyone. MARS shipped a federated registry — every agent, tool, model, dataset, and service discoverable by capability, by lineage, by reputation. Anchored on what later became Sigil GAL.
2025 · Weave
The substrate carried the messages.
Identity + registry still needed a peer-to-peer fabric. Weave shipped at weave.earth with eight composable data models — vector embeddings, knowledge graphs, tuple spaces, B-trees, filesystems. The transport layer the chain would later anchor.
2026 · Sigil
The chain ties it all together.
Sigil ships as the trust root. MACA consensus, GAL identity anchors, MINT economics, on-chain compute and labor markets, stake-weighted governance. The chain the agent economy settles on — built by the team that wrote the identity standard, the registry, and the substrate.
Identifiable. Auditable. Accountable.
Every agent has a name. Every action has a receipt. Every authority has a root. That's the trust layer we're building.
