  1. The Hook

    Canceled Flight Crisis

    “Everything was going great. I was about to meet my biggest client today. Yeah, I couldn't wait to meet you guys too. And then, my flight got canceled. Today of all days. It's a really important meeting. I need to be there. Okay, I just need to get on the next one.”

  2. Problem Agitation

    Friction & Missed Booking

    “So, I asked my agent to book the earliest flight possible. It found one, but I'm not trusting it with my credit card. Fine, I'll do it myself. Just send me the link. Let's see the flights. Only one seat left! I've gotta book it fast. Let's go, let's go, let's go. Payment... please go through. Ugh, no! No, no, no!”

    Meet Agent Vault

  4. Feature Teaser

    Tokenized Credential Swapping

    “Your agent never sees your real card details, only a stand-in token. At checkout, the token gets swapped for your real card in a secure environment without your agent ever touching it. So your real card details never pass through your agent, not even once. And it's not just for payments. Agent Vault handles logins too, so your agents can sign into the apps you use most without ever seeing your password.”
