AI workflow agents with a person at every gate you choose.

cstmAI™ Agents carry out multi-step work inside your systems: reading an incoming document, checking it against your records, preparing the next step, and acting only when a person approves or within limits you set.

An agent is a model with tools and a procedure. The hard parts are at the edges: what it may touch, when it must stop and ask, and how you can see afterward exactly what it did. Agents routes every action through the policies you set in cstmAI Govern and records each step.

New agents start in suggest-only mode, where a person approves every action. Their authority widens only where the evaluation results justify it, one action type at a time.

Useful because it is supervised.

01CSTM-SW

Approval gates

A person signs off on the actions you choose, inside the tools they already use.

02CSTM-SW

Scoped tools

Each agent gets only the systems and records its job needs.

03CSTM-SW

Full trace

Every decision is replayable: what it read, what it concluded, what it did.

04CSTM-SW

Earned autonomy

Authority widens per action type as the error rate proves it safe.

How it's delivered

Four steps, each one signed off.

01

Map the procedure

Write down the steps, systems and exceptions with the people who do the work.

02

Suggest-only

The agent drafts every action; people approve, edit or reject.

03

Measure

Approval and correction rates become the scorecard.

04

Widen

Low-risk actions with clean records get automatic approval.

FAQ

Questions we hear first.

What kind of work suits an agent?

Repetitive, rule-shaped work with clear inputs: invoice matching, intake triage, order checks, ticket routing, report preparation. Work that rests on judgment keeps a person in the loop.

What if an agent gets something wrong?

In suggest-only mode a person catches it before anything happens. Every action is logged with its inputs, so mistakes are traceable, and each one becomes a new test case.

Is this the same as custom agent development?

Agents is the runtime. When a workflow needs custom logic, integrations or a purpose-built interface, our development team builds it on top.
