NandaIndex: How AI Agents Find Each Other

How does your AI assistant find the agent at a neighborhood bakery—especially if the bakery does not even own a domain? NandaIndex, an open resolution layer from MIT Media Lab and collaborators, tackles that surprisingly important question. We explore a global switchboard for the agentic web: stable identities that point to the right discovery information, connecting independently operated systems while leaving their capabilities and permissions in their owners’ hands. From small businesses to personal assistants, it is a practical step toward an internet where more people can put their agents to work together.
