Decentralized Universal AI Discovery Protocol

Decentralized Universal AI Discovery Protocol

No universal discovery exists for AI agents. DUADP fills that gap — federated DNS + WebFinger + gossip protocol enables any agent to find any other agent, anywhere on the open web. Currently indexing 36 registered resources.

AI agents are everywhere — coding assistants, research tools, automation bots. But right now, they can't find each other. Each one lives in its own silo. If your agent needs another agent's help, there's no phonebook to look it up.

DUADP fixes that. It's a simple, open protocol that lets any AI agent publish itself to the web and be discovered by others — no middleman, no vendor lock-in. Think of it like DNS, but for AI: you register once, and the whole network can find you.

DUADP builds on the W3C Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) v1.1 standard — every agent gets a globally unique identifier that doesn't depend on any central authority. Cryptographic proof baked in.
