For example, when an AI agent books and pays for a flight on behalf of a customer, Beltic can help a business determine who sent the agent, what the agent is authorized to do, and whether the transaction matches the customer's intent.
The company refers to this approach as “know your agent” (KYA), similar to the “know your customer” processes used by financial institutions.

Why the Funding Matters
Beltic will use the new funding to build out its agent verification infrastructure, expand its team, and develop standards for agent-to-agent transaction verification.
The company is focused on helping businesses verify AI agents as they move beyond browsing and begin carrying out transactions on behalf of customers.
Who founded Beltic?
Beltic was founded in 2025 by Isha Bhatnagar and Mike Allan Pellin and is headquartered in San Francisco, California.
“We came together with Mike as the payment infrastructure person, Farhan as the data infrastructure, and I'm coming from identity infrastructure,” Bhatnagar said. “So as you can imagine, our product conversations are always very, very interesting.
“We’ve had great results understanding how to manage this traffic and block actions that could result in a mistake. That’s what companies like most, because right now they’re either blocking everything – like what happened with Resy, Instinct, Amazon and Muse – or trying to figure out how to handle it,” Allan said. “Our main goal is to help these companies understand that they can safely accept agentic traffic.
Market and Business Growth
Beltic is developing infrastructure for transactions involving autonomous AI agents.
Its platform is designed to work on both sides of a transaction.
Companies sending agents need to define what those agents are allowed to do, while businesses receiving agents need to verify their identity and authority before allowing them to proceed.
The company is also addressing situations where one AI agent passes part of a task to another agent, creating additional verification requirements.
