How to detect VBase Agent
VBase Agent signs its requests, so you detect it by verifying the cryptographic signature on each request. A valid signature proves the request came from VBase; a copied user agent without the signature does not.

Questions about VBase Agent
How do you detect VBase Agent?
VBase Agent signs its requests, so you detect it by verifying the cryptographic signature on each request. A valid signature proves the request came from VBase; a copied user agent without the signature does not.
What is VBase Agent?
VBase Agent is an AI agent from VBase that works in a browser and signs its requests.
Does VBase Agent identify itself?
Yes. VBase Agent signs its requests cryptographically, which is the strongest way an agent can identify itself.
Can a bot pretend to be VBase Agent?
Not convincingly. A bot can copy VBase Agent's user agent, but without VBase signing keys its requests fail verification and it is not labeled VBase Agent.
How common is VBase Agent?
Very uncommon. Rare, brand new, or not seen on Verisoul traffic yet.
What does the Verisoul API return for VBase Agent?
Every session Verisoul identifies as VBase Agent carries an agent block with id "vbase_agent", name, provider, type "ai_agent", detection_method "signed" and the detection_signals used (cryptographic, behavioral). Build rules on the id, type and detection method.
