Secret Network and Project Zero Partner to Advance Privacy-Preserving AI Agents

Secret Network Foundation and Project Zero announce a strategic partnership focused on integrating privacy-preserving AI capabilities into decentralized autonomous agents. By combining Secret Network’s confidential computing infrastructure with Project Zero’s advanced data infrastructure, this collaboration will set the foundation for the next generation of secure, customizable, and private AI-driven economies.

Project Zero provides the essential tools for developers to create autonomous AI agents that operate on-chain. While the full AI Agent Launchpad—including agent creation, deployment, and AI-driven token economies—is planned for later this year, Project Zero is already enabling AI models to interact with blockchain data in meaningful ways. A recent showcase featuring ElizaOS demonstrated how AI agents can leverage Project Zero’s enriched on-chain knowledge to enhance decision-making and autonomy.

“Privacy is a fundamental requirement for AI agents operating in decentralized environments,” said Lisa Loud, executive director of Secret Network Foundation. “Through this partnership, we are ensuring that developers can build AI-driven agents with confidentiality at their core, protecting sensitive interactions while enabling more robust and adaptive agent economies.”

As part of the collaboration, Secret Network will integrate Project Zero’s developer tools within the Secret AI SDK, allowing builders to launch privacy-preserving AI agents with enhanced confidentiality and security. Additionally, Project Zero will incorporate Secret AI SDK capabilities to provide customizable privacy tools and confidential computing infrastructure for AI-driven economies and payments.

“AI agents are becoming more sophisticated, and ensuring their privacy is critical to their success,” said CTO and Co-founder Mark Boychuk at Project Zero. “With Secret Network’s confidential computing infrastructure, we can provide developers with the tools to launch AI agents that not only think and act autonomously but also protect user data and transaction details in a fully decentralized manner.”

Later this year, as Project Zero launches its AI Agent capabilities, AI-driven tokens paired with $PZERO for liquidity will further expand the ecosystem, providing an economic framework for autonomous agents. The partnership with Secret Network ensures that these AI agents will have built-in privacy protections from day one, offering a secure foundation for the future of decentralized intelligence.
