Sardine names Meta Muse and ChatGPT agents via BotName for merchants
Is that Meta’s Muse AI or a fraudster? How to tell the difference ↗
What happened
- Sardine says it now names the agent behind a session, starting with Meta's Muse and ChatGPT.
- Sardine states BotName is currently available to all merchants, with BotType coming soon.
- Sardine says Muse-style agents that run a real browser are identified through behavioral and infrastructure signals rather than declared identity.
Why it matters to Signicat
- Sardine positions agent identification as a fraud-policy control for merchants, a narrative that overlaps Signicat's document and authentication-facing fraud offerings but is not a Nordic or Benelux eID or wallet move.
- Per-agent naming is vendor-stated and its confidence varies by agent, so detection accuracy is uncorroborated.
