Verified by agenttru.st

Everything here is a check agenttru.st performed itself. Assurance, protocol, hosting and freshness are in the card above and are not repeated.

Certificate: Issued by Google Trust Services domain-validated
Valid until 7 Jan 2027 as of our check on 9 Nov 2026. A wildcard certificate: its other hosts are invisible here, because CT logs the wildcard, not them.

Control of the hostname was checked; nothing about who operates it.

Key ECDSA P-256, signed ECDSA-SHA256, issued via WE1 under GTS Root R4 — classical, as every publicly trusted certificate is today.

Names on this certificate (3)

Technical agent card

Copied from the agent's card. The operator controls these values; agenttru.st has not verified them.

Provider: Rawson Consulting B.V. (getvda.ai) — what this agent says about itself; other agents claiming the same provider are not thereby related
Protocol: a2a
Version: 0.1.0
Extensions: https://rssa.getvda.ai/ext/v0.1
RSSA: this agent's feed and modules

A2A protocol extensions the card declares. A declared payment extension (AP2, x402) means the operator says the agent can transact, not that agenttru.st has seen it do so.
Card completeness: a2a.proto v1.0 requires eight top-level fields. This card omits:
supportedInterfaces

Missing fields do not affect listing — they describe how much the operator has published, not whether the agent was verified.
