    MG
    Michael Grinich
    Founder of WorkOS; Partner in the agents.txt Auth spec.

    Founding Story

    The project was initiated to fill the gap in the web's machine-readable layers. While Layer 1-3 (robots.txt, sitemaps, llms.txt) covered access and content, there was no standard for agents to discover site capabilities like payments or MCP servers.

    Business Model

    Revenue Model

    Open standard (CC0); Ecosystem monetization through partner platforms like Cloudflare and xpay.sh.

    The spec is public domain via CC0.
