Caracal
Give AI agents authority, not credentials.
What this is
An open-source authorization layer for AI agents that grants policy-based authority instead of credentials, with least-privilege delegation, instant revocation, human approval steps, and tamper-evident audit logs.
Our one-line summary — not the founder’s tagline.
- How it works
- Replaces credential-sharing with policy-based authorization for AI agents: least-privilege delegation, instant revocation, human-in-the-loop approvals, and a tamper-evident audit trail.
- Best for
- Developers building AI agent systems who need to grant scoped authority without handing out raw credentials.
- Watch out
- GitHub, Microsoft, and Vercel are named as project sponsors under Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust, not as integrations.

AI. Launched 11d ago on Product Hunt, picking up 3 votes. Today, it's been quiet for 11 days and the price has started to bleed.
Already bleeding a little every day, and it accelerates the longer it stays quiet.
We check this site every day, ourselves. A founder can post “still working on it” — a claim like that doesn't price. What we price is what we can verify from the outside: evidence, not announcements. The real question isn't “will this be huge?” — it's “will they still be moving in four weeks?”
The market viewHow this launch is priced and ranked in our league — the investor side of the page.
ranked by the reality anchor, not the market price
It launched on Product Hunt with 3 votes.
No matter how much money goes in. There is no pump here — you can't make yourself right by buying more. The line only moves on things that actually happened: an award, revenue that grew, a new platform, code that shipped — or silence.
A launch that goes quiet eases down a little at a time — never a cliff you could have run from the night before.
Daily tracking just started for this launch — the first point is on the board. A second reading lands with tomorrow's run, and the curve builds from there.
How the launch is moving on its own board, day by day — the crowd's attention.
A flat line is normal: votes stop within a day or two of launch, on every board. What's unusual — and what actually counts — is a launch that keeps pulling votes long after its day is over.

The board it did best on sets the price. Every other board only adds to it if the launch also placed high on that board too — because just showing up somewhere isn't an achievement. Listing on twelve directories is free; placing well on them isn't.
