Put a named human in front of the actions that matter
Agents now move money and change records. Approval on a personal device gives you a decision you can attribute to a person, without slowing down the traffic that does not need one.
- 02
Take the credential out of the application entirely
Your applications and agents carry a stand-in, never a working credential. The real value is substituted at the moment of the call, from your enterprise vault or from the owner's phone, so a compromised application has nothing worth stealing.
- 03
Use the best model without sending it your customers' data
Sensitive values are replaced before the request leaves, so the model provider and the safety filter both work normally and neither ever receives the real thing.
- 04
Allow the one thing a vendor needs, not the whole vendor
Most controls can only allow or block a whole domain, so "let finance use the payments API" quietly becomes "let anything reach anything on that host".
- 05
Answer the auditor's question in minutes, not a fortnight
One identifier replays what happened to a single request from end to end, and the record can be proven unaltered rather than merely retained.
- 06
Stop being locked in to whichever model you integrated first
The model your teams picked eighteen months ago is now a fact about your architecture. It does not have to be, and unpicking it should not need a release from every team that ships AI.
- 07
Cut your model spend without gambling on quality
The reason nobody moves to a cheaper model is not that cheaper models are bad. It is that no engineer will stake their name on one without evidence from your own traffic.
- 08
Find out which team is spending your AI budget
The bill arrives as one number from each provider, so nobody owns it and nobody can be asked to reduce it. Attribution has to happen where the calls are made.
- 09
Govern the software you are not allowed to modify
The systems most worth putting a control in front of are usually the ones you cannot edit: a vendor product, a closed integration, an agent framework somebody else maintains.
- 10
Human approval that does not fall over in production
Most approval designs hold the request open while a person decides. That works in a demo and fails the first time somebody approves something after lunch.
