Use Pouch for the logins your team and its agents share: named assignments, optional time limits, one-time links, every view recorded, and a password no agent sees.

- One or allEnd one account assignment or take back every account assigned to an agent in one act.

Questions about 1Password and Runner Pouch
Is Pouch like Secure Agentic Autofill?
Yes, where it counts: like Secure Agentic Autofill, Pouch keeps the password from the agent. When a channel connects from Pouch, Runner puts the password in at the last step, outside the AI's view, so it never lands in a chat, a transcript or a log. The difference: 1Password fills a browser through Browserbase, with a person approving credential requests by default; Pouch is made for teams that run agents: you give each account to a named agent, for a set time if you like, and see who was given which.
Do I have to choose?
No. Keep the password manager that holds your personal and company credentials, and use Pouch for the accounts your agents work with.
Who can see and copy a saved password?
Owners, admins and anyone you give the login to, each after confirming it's them with a passkey or an authenticator code. Every view is recorded.
Can a Pouch assignment expire?
Yes. Choose one hour, one day or one week, or leave the assignment standing.
What happens when I take everything back from an agent?
Every account assignment for that agent ends in one act, and each return appears in assignment history.
How are saved passwords encrypted?
Each organization's saved passwords are encrypted under its own key in Google Cloud's key service. Closing the organization destroys the key.
Can I take every login with me?
Yes. An owner can export every login to a CSV file most password managers accept.
How do I get Pouch?
Pouch needs a Runner account. Open your workspace and choose Pouch from the sidebar.
What does Pouch cost?
Nothing extra. Pouch is included with your Runner subscription.
