- Akeyless SecretlessAI®
Keep Credentials Out of AI Agent
Hands with SecretlessAI
Broker secure access to enterprise systems without exposing AI agents to passwords, API keys, secrets, certificates, or cryptographic keys. Agents get the access they need without ever holding or seeing the credentials used to connect.
Trusted by Leading Enterprises, Investors, and Partners
Why SecretlessAI Changes Agent Access
Give AI agents the access they need without exposing credentials, leaving standing access behind, or opening direct paths to enterprise systems.
Eliminate Credential Exposure
Keep credentials invisible to agents, even at runtime.
Protect Enterprise Systems
Broker connections through Akeyless to isolate agents from enterprise systems.
Prevent Persistent Access
Enable just-in-time access without giving agents persistent credentials.
Maintain Full Accountability
Attribute every credential use and session to its originating identity.
Short-Lived Is Not the Same as Secretless
A short-lived credential can still be copied, leaked, logged, or misused if the agent can see it. SecretlessAI keeps the credential invisible to the agent throughout the session, so access can happen without credential possession.
Remove Credentials from the Agentic Flow
Connect AI agents to enterprise systems without credentials ever entering their context, code, or environment.
No Credentials to Steal or Leak
Remove credentials from the agentic flow entirely. SecretlessAI gives agents the access they need without placing passwords, keys, tokens, or other credentials in their context, code, memory, or environment.
Even a compromised agent has no credential to steal, leak, or misuse.
One Secure Path to Enterprise Systems
Keep AI agents separated from the systems they access. SecretlessAI brokers every connection through the Akeyless Gateway, eliminating direct access to modern and legacy enterprise systems. Access is created on demand, scoped by policy, and revoked when no longer needed.
Agents can complete their tasks without an open path into your environment.
Secure Access Across Your AI Ecosystem
Extend SecretlessAI across the agents, tools, and systems your organization already uses. Safeguard access through MCP and native tool calling across leading AI platforms and frameworks, from SaaS applications and cloud services to databases and enterprise infrastructure.
Secure AI adoption without disrupting the tools and technologies your teams already use.
Track Credentials and Access
Maintain a centralized audit trail of credential use and agent access across enterprise systems. Trace each session back to the originating human, machine, or agent for clear accountability and faster investigation.
Extend Protection Beyond Access
Akeyless SecretlessAI® protects the access path by keeping credentials out of the agent. For autonomous or higher-risk agents, Akeyless Runtime Authority adds intent-aware controls over what authenticated agents are allowed to do at runtime.

One Platform. Every Identity Secured. Everywhere.
AI agent security does not exist in isolation. The same identities and credentials that power AI agents also underpin application secrets, encryption keys, service accounts, certificates, and human access.
Akeyless unifies Privileged Access, Secrets Management, KMS, and Certificate Lifecycle Management into a single SaaS platform with one policy engine and one audit trail.

FAQs About SecretlessAI
What is SecretlessAI and how does it secure AI agent access?
SecretlessAI is Akeyless technology for giving AI agents access to enterprise systems without exposing the credentials used to connect. Access is brokered through the Akeyless Gateway, keeping target credentials invisible to the agent even during execution.
How does SecretlessAI keep credentials out of AI agent hands?
SecretlessAI brokers the connection through the Akeyless Gateway so target credentials never enter the agent’s context, code, or environment. Akeyless creates the required access on demand, including for systems that rely on traditional authentication, and uses it inside the brokered session without exposing it to the agent.
How is SecretlessAI different from secrets management for AI agents?
Secrets management secures and governs credentials that AI agents need to use directly. SecretlessAI removes credential possession from the agentic flow altogether by brokering access to enterprise systems while keeping the underlying credentials invisible to the agent.
What is the difference between short-lived credentials and SecretlessAI?
Short-lived credentials limit how long a credential remains valid, but they can still be copied, logged, leaked, or misused if an AI agent can see them. SecretlessAI removes credential possession entirely: Akeyless brokers access through the Gateway and keeps the target credential invisible to the agent, regardless of how the target itself authenticates.
Does SecretlessAI support MCP and AI agent frameworks?
Yes. SecretlessAI supports MCP and native tool calling across leading AI platforms and frameworks, enabling agents to access SaaS applications, cloud services, databases, and enterprise infrastructure without exposing the credentials used to connect.
How does SecretlessAI provide audit and accountability for AI agent access?
SecretlessAI maintains a centralized audit trail of credential use and agent access across enterprise systems. Sessions can be attributed to the originating human, machine, or agent, giving security teams the traceability needed for investigation, governance, and compliance.
