EigenCloud: Verifiable Agent Trust using Intel and Google Cloud

The Agent Trust Problem

Every agent deployed today runs on a set of promises. A promise that a certain model is being used, that code is being deployed as promised. A promise that the agent is doing what it says that it is doing. There is no way to independently verify these promises. This works fine when agents are developer tools used with humans in the loop. A person can inspect outputs, catch mistakes, and course-correct. But as agents increasingly act autonomously on high-stakes decisions, moving capital, executing strategies, coordinating complex workflows without waiting for approval, that human check disappears. What replaces it?

At that level of agent autonomy, informal trust is a liability for developers, for users, and for everything built on top of these agents. This new, high-stakes era demands a direct replacement for promises: cryptographic proof.

EigenCompute, powered by Intel and Google, replaces those promises with verifiable guarantees by design. 

Verifiability out of the box

EigenCompute is the verifiable execution layer at the center of the EigenCloud, offering crypto grade verifiability for any app, services, and or AI agent. The platform enables any developer to provision "trust-as-a-service" for complex applications (like AI agents or high-frequency trading bots) that can run their logic off-chain but carry a comparable level of verifiability to code run on a blockchain.

EigenCompute gives users cryptographic proof of every action an agent takes, letting them verify execution and inspect identity, builds, and upgrades without trusting the developer. Agents on EigenCompute can custody assets, execute strategies autonomously, and handle sensitive computation with strong cryptographic verifiability comparable to blockchain-based execution, at the speed and flexibility of a traditional cloud.

Powered by Intel and Google Cloud

Making this real requires hardware-level trust. EigenCompute runs applications inside Google Cloud Confidential Space, where Intel TDX provides hardware-isolated execution environments with encrypted memory. When an application launches, Intel Trust Authority verifies what's running and issues a signed attestation that anyone can independently verify.

There are three infrastructure components working together here: 

Intel TDX creates hardware-enforced Trust Domains, isolated virtual machines where sensitive data is only decrypted inside the trust boundary. Memory is encrypted at the silicon level, enforcing technological separation from the cloud provider's management stack, hypervisor, infrastructure admins, and other VMs on the same server. Outside the trust boundary, data encryption is enforced by hardware. Attestation is built in. Cryptographic verification that the TEE is genuine, patched within policy, and running the expected software and configuration.

Intel Trust Authority decouples verification from infrastructure. It provides independent third-party attestation, separating the entity that verifies the TEE from the entity that hosts it. This is the critical property: even though EigenCompute runs on Google Cloud, the attestation that your workload is genuine and unmodified does not come from Google. Intel Trust Authority operates as a cloud-native SaaS that cryptographically verifies TEE integrity, code identity, and policy compliance from outside the infrastructure provider's trust boundary. It supports composite attestation across CPU and GPU domains, enabling comprehensive  verification of confidential AI workloads, helping protect enterprise data, prompts, and model IP during  execution. Attestation results are auditable, portable, and do not depend on trusting the cloud operator.

Google Cloud Confidential Space provides the secure multi-party execution environment. Workloads run as containerized images on top of a hardened Container-Optimized OS inside Confidential VMs backed by Intel TDX. The attestation service returns OIDC tokens containing workload identity attributes such as verified code hash, execution environment, and authorization context,  which gate access to protected resources including Cloud Storage, Cloud KMS keys, and external assets integrated via the security boundary. Multiple parties can collaborate on sensitive data without exposing raw information to each other or the cloud provider.

EigenCloud builds on this foundation with distributed key management, programmable application governance, and a growing set of developer tools that together create what no existing cloud or agent framework provides: a single stack built for trust.

A verifiable cloud for the agentic era 

Today, builders either ship agents they can't fully trust, or they spend months assembling primitives that don't exist in integrated form. EigenCloud changes that equation. Hardware security from Intel, a confidential cloud environment from Google, and a verification and enforcement layer via EigenCloud services, together establish a practical, scalable model for trustworthy computation.
