Governed access

Get API access

Stop handing out permanent secrets. Receive governed API access instead.

You start where you expect to — you ask for an API key. What you receive is not a reusable secret you have to guard forever. It is a governed authorization: scoped to what you are allowed to do, expiring on its own, revocable at any time, and backed by evidence anyone can verify.

H33-API-G governed access pilot. Not a production-admitted authority.

What you receive

Four properties a static API key can never have.

Scoped permissions

The authorization names the exact operations it permits. It cannot be re-pointed at anything else.

Expiration

A time boundary is part of the grant. It closes on its own — there is nothing left to leak later.

Revocation

Withdraw authority at any moment. The next call is refused, and the refusal is recorded.

Cryptographic evidence

Every governed call leaves a receipt showing what was authorized, under which policy, and that it ran once.

The difference

Same button. A fundamentally different object.

A traditional API key answers only one question: who holds the secret? Possession becomes permission, the secret spreads across environments and agents, and nobody can prove afterward what it actually did.

What you expected — a static secret

The flow

From account to verified evidence.

Six steps. You only perform the first two — the rest is the governed path your authorization travels every time it is used.

Account

Create your H33 account. Identity is established once, and every later authorization is bound to it.

Plan

Choose the plan that covers the products you intend to call. See pricing.

Entitlement

Your subscription becomes an entitlement — the record of what your account is permitted to ask for.

Governed authorization

Instead of minting a secret, H33-API-G issues a bounded authorization: scoped, time-limited, and revocable.

API access

Your application or AI agent calls the API. Each request executes only while its authority holds.

Evidence verification

Every governed call produces evidence you can check independently — don't trust the claim, verify the trail.

Built for agents too

Autonomous systems should never inherit a permanent credential.

Handing an AI agent a reusable secret repeats the API-key mistake at machine speed. A governed authorization gives the agent permission for a specific action for a specific window — never your master key. When the task ends, the authority ends with it, and the evidence of what ran remains.
