ARKSTRIDE is building the Identity Delegation & Access Management category. Discover identities, map delegated authority and expose effective-access paths across humans, machines, cloud workloads and AI agents. We are now opening founder-led Identity Authority Exposure Reviews and our Design Partner Programme.

Hi Product Hunt — I’m Hassan, founder of ARKSTRIDE. Identity security was designed for a world where people signed into applications. Today, authority is exercised by employees, administrators, service accounts, cloud workloads, APIs and autonomous AI agents — often through chains of delegation that no single team can clearly see. We are building a new category around that problem: Identity Delegation & Access Management. ARKSTRIDE is designed to answer three questions: Who can act? Through which authority path? Whose permissions are they ultimately using? Our platform discovers identities, maps delegation and effective-access paths, and translates authority exposure into evidence-backed findings for security and executive teams. For this early launch, we are opening two routes: Identity Authority Exposure Review For organisations that want to understand their identity inventory, delegation paths and effective-access exposure. Design Partner Programme For identity, cloud-security and AI-infrastructure teams that want to help define the IDA category with us. I would especially value feedback from CISOs, IAM leaders, cloud-security practitioners and teams building agentic systems: Where does delegated authority become hardest to understand in your environment today? I’ll be here throughout the launch answering every question.

Congrats on the launch. One thing I'd love to see is a visual graph view of delegated authority chains, so you can actually trace how access flows from a human owner down to an AI agent or service account at a glance. Would make the exposure reviews way more intuitive.
