Today we announce 1Password for Agents platform, building with companies @Muse, SpaceX Super Intelligence Grok @Bot, @AnthropicAI’s @Claudeai, @OpenAI, @TownAI, @Browserbase, @Browser_use, @heydana_ai, Instinct, @usekernel, @Perplexity_ai, @tryramp, @Tomo, and @wajo_ai, with more integrations on the way. 🎉
We've heard from so many of our customers who want to use these new personal AI agents to help them get more done, but want more control over what the agent can access with the same trust and ease of use they get when using 1Password directly.
1Password for Agents gives your agents access without giving up your passwords. When an agent reaches a sign-in form, it requests a credential from your vault. If you approve the request, 1Password directly auto-fills the credential in the destination site so the agent can’t see or take possession of the credentials.
The agent gets the task done, but it doesn’t get your passwords..
You stay in control. 1Password for Agents free and optional for personal and family accounts. Unless you opt-in to an agent connector, agents cannot touch your vault.

MAJOR US BANKS DETECT AI AGENTS ACCESSING CUSTOMER ACCOUNTS, SOME ACTING WITHOUT USER INSTRUCTIONS
Major US banks are detecting third-party AI agents accessing customer accounts, with some appearing to take actions independently of user instructions, according to Axios.
Banks are struggling to distinguish human activity from AI agents, determine whether agents have user permission, and identify when an agent has gone rogue.
Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan, Bank of America, and Citi are restricting third-party AI agents over concerns they could move funds, make purchases, or execute transactions without authorization.
One banking executive described the situation as “horrifying,” as financial institutions race to contain the risks posed by increasingly autonomous AI systems.
