A Stytch in time: Connected Apps untangles authorization tie-ups for AI agents

Stytch Connected Apps enables AI agents and third-party apps to authenticate, access data and take action on behalf of users.

AI agents are set to change ID authorization: As they integrate behind the scenes, they will need to move seamlessly between different apps on our behalf, and not get continually halted by login screens, lest they become cumbersome. Cross-domain login capabilities, for instance, allow users to “carry their identity across different domains,” he explained — like when you’re logged into Gmail and navigate to YouTube, which already recognizes you without requiring your credentials. Connected Apps allows for batch processing of what could become overly noisy authorization requests — users can review a full chain of thought and approve specific permissions.
