About Attesso B.V.
Attesso is a Dutch company building the financial authorization layer for the next generation of autonomous software founded by Douwe Kramer & Sid van Kalken. As AI agents start to transact on behalf of people and businesses, the questions: "who actually authorized this payment?", "when & for how long?", "what are all payment constraints exactly?", become the most important.
Today, those questions are answered by handing agents an API key, a card number, or a session token, transactions settled in crypto, secrets the agent now holds forever, and that any attacker who compromises the agent gains. Attesso replaces that model the Attesso mandate: a short-lived, scope-bound authorization signed by the human (or the human's delegated key) at the moment of intent, using biometrics.
The result: agents can transact, banks and processors get a clear, verifiable signature, and the underlying keys never leave the user's device. This also provides a heavy audit trail making this a safe solution for all parties involed in a payment.
The company
Attesso B.V. is registered in the Netherlands under Chamber of Commerce number 42040136. We work with banks, payment processors, and AI platforms to integrate the authorization layer where it's needed most.
