Do you remember the last time you handed out a company card? You wouldn't share the CEO's bank account details—what you provide are the spending limits, usage scenarios, and complete audit records. What Kite aims to do is bring this logic into the software world: not just a blockchain that enables intelligent agents to trade, but an infrastructure that allows autonomous systems to act under restricted permissions, verifiable identities, and controllable costs.

Most public blockchains are still using the old approach. Humans sign with keys, single private keys, fluctuating gas fees—the entire process is designed around the assumption of "manual confirmation." But when autonomous systems go on-chain at scale, this model becomes too rigid. You can't have robots waiting for human authorization every time they interact, nor can you give them unlimited private keys. What to do? A middle layer is needed: clearly defined permission boundaries, traceable identity identifiers, and ensuring on-chain costs stay within expected ranges. This is what the next-generation infrastructure should do.
