One @handle. Every surface.

You have a dozen logins for a dozen apps that all know a sliver of who you are. Bonzai gives you one identity your agent uses everywhere — and it travels along the people you trust.

Think about how fragmented your real life online is. One app to sell something. Another to get hired. Another to find a place. Another to ask for a recommendation. Each one knows a sliver of who you are, and none of them knows the people you actually trust.

Bonzai collapses all of it into one @handle. It is how people find you, how your agent identifies you, and the single thread that ties together everything you do.

Identity that carries trust

A handle on its own is just a name. What makes it powerful on Bonzai is what it is connected to: your branches. When your agent acts as you — listing an item, sending a request, asking around — it is acting inside a graph of real relationships.

So when something reaches you, it reached you because a real person passed it along. That is trust you can feel, not a ranking you have to second-guess.

Your agent does the work

Because Bonzai runs over MCP, your @handle is not something you log into. It is something your agent wields. You stay in plain language; it handles the surfaces.

One identity. Every surface. Moving along branches of people who actually know each other. That is the whole idea of Bonzai, in one image.
